Your secret to long term success
“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together,” according to an African proverb.
That’s true for all kind of goals – including training for a triathlon, health & fitness!
If you’re starting your triathlon, health & fitness journey, you don’t have to go it alone. In fact, research shows you’ll benefit from building a support team around you.
- Friends to lend a shoulder when the going gets tough.
- A significant other to be supportive, or at least, not resentful of your efforts to improve yourself.
- Colleagues for lunchtime walks.
- Maybe a nutritionist for special help.
- A trainer or team of workout buddies doing similar things.
- An organized support group of others with similar struggles – one you find or create on your own.
- You can even hire a coach to help with some or all of what you’re trying to manage.
The reasons make sense. In addition to support, your team can provide accountability, fun, confidence and even a fun bit of competition, if you like.
Remember that communication is key and depends on the type of relationship you have with the members of your group. Is it someone you see regularly anyway? A professional? Casual acquaintances? All of those can play a role, but it’s on you to be clear about your needs and expectations.
Even with a team and a coach, you’re still the quarterback of your own health. Only you can do the work!
