Helping United Way Do the Most Good

1/20/2021

0 Comments

 
I am so excited that we have partnered with United Way to help us 'do the most good' with the money that we contribute through the new Greatest Gift Referral Program.

Through this program, we donate $10 for each person that is referred to us. Last month, we had 18 referrals in Bangor, so we have $180 to give. We also gave Emily Howe (one of our clients who referred 6 people to the program) a $100 gift certificate to Timber Kitchen & Bar in Bangor.  

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all of your support - it means the world to us and we are so honored to be able to help your friends and family along their health and fitness journey.

Shirar Patterson is the CEO of United Way of Eastern Maine and here is a recording of our recent call. 
This month, we will be contributing $180 to Keep ME Warm - this is a fund for heating assistance for people in our local community.

Through United Way, we are able to learn about all of the amazing organizations and initiatives in our community and find ways to make a positive impact.

​I am so very excited about this partnership!

My Story

1/14/2021

0 Comments

 
​I have an embarrassing secret to share: I don't really love exercise.

​I said it...

I rode the bench in class-D high school sports, I was a super nerd, and I am and always will be the very LAST person picked for dodgeball.

FUNNY - now I am in the health and fitness industry.

Join me as I share my story of what got me into the world of health and fitness and how committing to healthy living transformed my life:


As I was getting to know Mike, I first fell in love with his love and compassion for people. He didn't train people to make them look better (they did) - he trained them so they could show up in this life as the very best version of themselves. To become the best mom or dad, to be a better business leader, to excel in their careers, to give back to our community.

And the ripple effect that these people create in this world by their commitment to health and fitness - that is what inspired me to join our FITNESS business full time as an MBA who is always picked last for dodgeball.

We want to show you how to do the same!  With that, I want to invite you to a MASTERCLASS that Mike is hosting next week.

He will be talking about how to OWN YOUR HEALTH - how to gain confidence, clarity, and control within your personal health and fitness - and the simple, not-so-secret tools to create a solution for life.  

Here is the link to get registered for Mike’s Masterclass: https://wilcoxwellnessfitness.lpages.co/own-your-health-masterclass-registration/. 

You are not going to want to miss this talk.  It is going to be amazing. So - be sure to get registered for the talk next week- we have a few time and date options to choose from: 
  • Tuesday, January 26th at noon
  • Wednesday, January 27th at 5:30pm
  • February 2nd at 7am

It is going to be awesome - be sure to get registered - AND be sure to show up LIVE because we have an extra special little gift for everyone that is with us LIVE.

I really hope to see you in the Masterclass next week.  

See you soon!


<3

Your Secret to Long-Term Success

1/14/2021

0 Comments

 
“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 kinds of goals – including health & fitness!

If you’re starting your 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.
  • Colleagues for lunchtime walks or pep talks.
  • A trainer or group of workout buddies.
  • You can even hire a coach to help with some or all of what you’re trying to manage.
Picture
The reasons make sense. In addition to support, your team can provide accountability, fun, confidence and even a fun bit of competition.

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!

Ready to do the work? We want you on our team! Send us a message to set up a time to chat!

Just Show Up

1/4/2021

0 Comments

 
So frequently people join a training program and they want to make GIANT gains. They want to go full out in the first few training sessions and they want to 'get fit' in the first week.

While it is good to have a lot of motivation and gumption early on - we would rather have you channel all of that energy into DECIDING that you will be consistent over the long haul.

This is the ONE THING that is going to set you up for a lifetime of healthy living. No more on the wagon off the wagon. No more all or nothing. No more yo yo. No more deprivation. No more.
​
Just consistent effort over time. The tortoise, not the hair. This is mindset that will transform your life. You don't have to 'kill' any one training session - you have to keep showing up day in and day out slowly making progress towards your goals.
So many people only want to show up if they can give 120% effort. But the secret is - what really matters is the days when you show up when you didn't want to and all you've got to give is 2%. That builds character. That builds gumption. That builds trust because you've made a promise to yourself and you've kept it.

And you know what - after consistently showing up - you will want to ramp up the intensity - your body will be ready for it and it will feel really good and soon yesterday's 120% effort is todays 2% effort.

Make your training sessions like brushing your teeth. It is just what you do to take care of yourself. You don't argue with yourself about brushing your teeth or not - you just do it.

Decide right now to just show up. Show up when it is hard. Show up when you don't want to. Show up and keep showing up.
​
*This is part of the mindset component that we are incorporating to our new Online Course called Own Your Health (launching February 2021). Let me know if you want more information! It is going to be amazing!

Let's Write a New Story About January

12/29/2020

It is almost New Year's... Let’s write a new story

Poor January. It has such a sad, predictable story. You know the tale already.

Everybody always looks forward to seeing January.

Too much, in fact. Our excitement creates too much pressure for our January, and every year we believe things will work out this time. But then, inevitably, January lets us down.

No. That’s not quite right, is it?

January doesn’t let us down. Within a few days or weeks, we let it down -- abandoning the goals and hopes we had set for a new healthy lifestyle.

But it doesn’t have to be that way. Let’s write a new story for January!

First, let’s not make January the hero.

You are the hero of your own story.

Second, give January an appropriate role. You can use it to set some new goals if you like. But what if you put all that “resolutions” nonsense aside and focused instead on living your best life on January 1? And then again on January 2? And the 3rd, and the 4th, and on and on… doing your best to enjoy a healthy lifestyle as best you can, one day at a time.

Ready to get started? Let me know in the comments and I will share with you how you can get started for FREE.

Lots of love,
​Wilcox Wellness & Fitness

​Slow down to go far

12/28/2020

0 Comments

 
Yay! You’ve decided to jump-start your exercise and eating plan – and we are so psyched for your new journey!

Here’s some friendly advice: Baby steps will get you farther than racing off the couch to the gym five times a week.

Healthy habits take time to build, just like those bad ones did. And you don’t want to set yourself up for disappointment by taking on too much too soon.

Think about it. You’re more likely to develop lasting success slowly, each win adding to the last.
​
  • Make gradual changes to your diet, trimming some amounts and items first instead of cutting out all the “bad stuff” right away.
  • Reduce consumption of sodas and alcohol gradually in favor of water or other calorie-free beverages.
  • If you can’t run, walk until you can. (This one works literally and figuratively!)

This is how you avoid crashing and burning – by succeeding one step at a time.


​Happy training!

Change your mindset and you’ll change your behaviors one step at a time

12/23/2020

I’m not buying it – and you shouldn’t either

How are you feeling these days? Are you stressed with the holidays, work, and family? Way too busy to exercise, eat right, and otherwise take care of yourself?

We hear it this time every year.

And, frankly, we’re not buying it this time.

The problem isn’t that you’re too busy. It’s not that you don’t have the time. And it’s not that you can’t afford it.

The problem is your mindset.

​
​It tells you the same lies all the time but wraps them in special packaging for the holidays.
​
  • I have to take care of others, not myself.
  • I’ll make better choices tomorrow, but tonight a pizza on the couch is just the ticket.
  • I work hard, so I deserve to take it easy.
  • I don’t know how to get started, and I’ve never been athletic or fit, so I can’t start now.

Do any of those sound familiar? Aren’t you tired of them yet?

When you reach your TURNING POINT, when you have an a-ha moment that inspires you to take the first step, that’s when you start to address that faulty mindset so you can start making positive changes.

The mistake is waiting for it to show up from some external source. That does happen sometimes, but you might not like it. A doctor’s warning. A lover’s harsh words. A wardrobe that sits in the closet.

So, don’t look for something else to inspire you. Change your mindset and you’ll change your behaviors one step at a time. We are here to help!
