  1. Commit to your goals.<\/li>\n
  2. Go into each day with a plan.<\/li>\n
  3. Drink at least 96 fl. oz. of water a day.<\/li>\n
  4. When in doubt, eat more protein and vegetables.<\/li>\n
  5. Get a food scale that offers metric (“gram”) measurements, and use it to measure\u00a0as much of what you consume as possible.<\/li>\n
  6. Measure everything you consume using the metric system. \u00a0(There’s a reason this is listed twice.<\/em>)<\/li>\n
  7. Get an account on Sparkpeople.com, or any nutrient tracking site \/ app (Like My Fitness Pal). Use this to plan your meals at the start of each day, and change it as your diet changes throughout the day.<\/li>\n
  8. Stay within your calorie and macronutrient ranges.<\/li>\n
  9. Own a Foam Roller, and use it often on sore muscles.<\/li>\n
  10. Stretch on your days off from training.<\/li>\n
  11. Make a conscious effort to improve your posture. This will help you avoid injury, and can lead to dramatic increases in strength.<\/li>\n
  12. If you feel like you may falter toward your goals, call your trainer. Often times, talking to someone who is working toward their goals helps \u201ckeep you honest.\u201d<\/li>\n
  13. Contact your trainer whenever you need to.<\/li>\n
  14. Make a schedule \/ develop a routine and stick to it.<\/li>\n
  15. During your warm up, visualize your goals, and forge a strong bond between that vision, your mind, and your muscles.<\/li>\n
  16. Use the Trainerize App often to track measurements and workouts.<\/li>\n
  17. Encourage those around you. This can help you toward your goals, and also builds a support network.<\/li>\n
  18. Leave your ego at the door before training. Doing an exercise correctly is more important the amount of weight you\u2019re moving; Proper posture during cardio is more important than your speed \/ level of resistance.<\/li>\n
  19. Stay Positive.<\/li>\n
