why can be so hard to get into the habit of exercise?
Ever stopped and wondered why it can be so hard to get into the habit of exercise?
Did you know a whopping 75%+ of our actions are done unconsciously? Yep, that leaves less than a quarter of our daily activities being done consciously.
The game changer? OUR HABITS.
The power to reshape your life lies in creating positive habits intentionally and, with time, letting them operate automatically.
This is the #1 reason why we offer appointment-based training and do not offer "class" based training where you can just drop in whenever you like. Developing a routine time to exercise is a great way to make exercise a habit. If we are always having to decide when to workout and how to fit it into a busy schedule...it will likely not happen consistently.
And without consistency...there is little hope for results.
The idea of coming to the gym whenever you like sounds great...but in actuality...the people who can establish the habit of working out at a particular time on particular days are the ones who develop both the habit of exercise and the enjoyment of the habit of exercise.
Today…take the challenge to review your lifestyle. Remember, your health, fitness, and nutrition outcomes hinge on the good habits you create and maintain.

Put these 10 tips on repeat
Don’t you love a list?
We do… especially if it cuts through the hype and makes my life EASY.
That’s why we borrowed this list from the American Heart Association for you.
It outlines 10 simple ways to streamline what you eat to help keep your heart (and entire body!) healthy, fit, and strong.
And the best part?
These tips will also help move you closer to your health/fitness goals.
You’ll also see they aren’t focused on deprivation OR perfection — instead, it’s all about eating delicious, healthy, and nutrient-packed food!
10 Ways to Show Your Heart Some Love (with FOOD!)
Balance calories with physical activity — don’t eat more food than you can burn off
Eat a variety of fruits and vegetables — choose lots of colorful produce
When you eat grains, make sure they are whole (not processed) — read those labels!
Include healthy protein sources at every meal
Use liquid non-tropical plant oils like avocado and olive oil
Eat minimally processed foods — focus on “real” whole foods as much as you can
Avoid added sugars — they’re just empty calories that drain your energy and your health, plus they’re linked with weight gain
Cut back on salt — according to the FDA, 90% of us (!!!) eat too much sodium… aim for less than 2,300 mg a day (about 1 teaspoon)
Limit alcohol (or avoid it!)
Put this list on repeat for all your meals and snacks

Why Personal Training?
At BCS Fitness, we believe that personalized training is the key to achieving fitness goals for busy individuals. We understand the importance of tailoring a program specifically to your needs.
While group fitness options like boot camps, CrossFit classes, and intense group workouts are suitable for those who are young, college students, already fit, or have plenty of free time, they may not be the best fit for everyone. That's where our personal training program comes in.
At BCS Fitness, we start every client's journey with a one-on-one session. During this session, we take the time to discuss your goals, health, and fitness history. We also engage you in a brief workout to assess your current physical state. This allows us to identify any imbalances or potential injury risks, such as a stronger leg or a weak shoulder. Based on this assessment, we can then design the most effective exercises to help you reach your goals quickly and efficiently.
