Here are the steps to take in formulating a goals.

1. State your goal in general terms:
2. What are some actions (behaviors) that would help you reach that goalŠ?
3. When will you expect to achieve your goal by.....?
4. How will you know you have achieved it......? How can the goal be tested?

Here is an example using the above steps:

1. I would like to have better cardiovascular endurance.
2. I will stay in my target heart rate range during cardiovascular workouts in class. Run/jog/power walk 3 times a week for 15-20 minutes (in or out of class)
3. By the end of the semester.......
4. I will increase my distance in the 12 minute run by.........laps.

Look at your fitness tests that we did in class, and using the steps above, create 2-3 goals. One goal should have muscular strength/endurance involved. One goal should be related to cardiovascular fitness and one goal should involved flexibility.

Go through each step (1-4) for each goal.
