There is nothing more motivating than setting a massive goal that so scares the lethargy out of you that you WILL NOT MISS A SINGLE TRAINING SESSION and you will THINK TWICE about hauling that extra pizza slice, say, over your first 5K or the 26 miles of a marathon. Preferably put money down on your goal (a race or fitness adventure in an exotic locale?), raise money for a cause so people are COUNTING ON YOU and tell the world your intentions, all the better to reinforce adherence. And if you fall a little short? See tip #8. Hey, you set a big frigging goal! Coming close to achieving it will be success. But given 80 and 90 year olds can increase muscle strength by as much as 40 percent in 12 weeks, prepare to astonish yourself.
