Fitness Goals for Next Year

I've tried my best to set a few fitness goals for next year. The main one being to at least lose around half a stone by this time next year.
I also just want to become stronger. I managed to be able to press 80lb on the leg press and I at least want to get up to 100 lb.
Another one is just to be able to by something from Gymshark. I love some of their leggings/jackets and I would love to be able to buy something next year.
Does anyone else have any fitness goals next year? I hope everyone has a happy new year!

I've got 5 marathons booked. Slightly scared now, my first one is 3rd march!
I also would like to lose two stone but I'm hoping the running will help with that one.5 -

Good luck with the marathon! I'm sure you'll do amazing!1 -
I have started competing in powerlifting. Goal in general is to increase 1 rep max on the three lifts. In particular want to get over 300 on deadlift and finally increase bench to 135. Also plan to train for a half marathon.3

I am starting a 300 swing kettlebell workout tomorrow3
-
Surviving my 100mile race in Feb and 500 deadlift. Pretty much just working on endurance + strength.4
-
Lose 15-20 pounds1
-
Increase all my lifts; goals include 135# bench, 200# squat, 250# deadlift.1

So many fitness goals so little time. Or more accurately to achieve them, I need to devote time and practice to them.
Straightforward ones are to improve my skills on the static trapeze and Lyra.
Meduim hardness goals are to master one handed handstands and do a one handed pullup
The "So hard that I think i might be slightly loco to think it is possible to achieve" goals are human flag and planche.1 -
Do an unassisted pullup!4
-
Conquer the Box Jump.
Once and for all, amen.2 -
Build muscle, spend happy nights backpacking through the Paysayten Wilderness, ski and bike in new places, swim in alpine lakes, possible climb Rainier.2

Continue to keep kicking *kitten* at bench. Take every increase I can and keep having fun.1

Start some type of strength training program. I do cardio and pilates and have shied away from weights since a shoulder injury. But I’m determined to reincorporate some sort of strength training. I’m going to start with some trx classes.2

- Drop 5kg (or more accurately, get to 52kg)
- sub 3:30 marathon (current pb 3:32 so not overly ambitious. Truthfully I'd really like a sub 3:20)
- Sub 1:33 half marathon (current pb 1:35 but feel sub 1:30 is a bit beyond me. Though dropping those 5kg would probably help...)
- Help my husband train for and run his first half marathon

Simple. To look like I can swum as far as I do.1

Great times! I'm shooting for sub 1:29.59 in a spring HM. Fingers crossed.1 -

I think if I could get a sub 90 hm I could die happy... Good luck!1 -
Yes I do: running 750 km this year and two 10 km races and joining another gym to increase my weight training and possibly starting work with a PT1

Some work to be done still. But it is within reach. Thanks. Best of luck to you on your training!0 -

I've had a very difficult year healthwise so while I've completed six marathons and two half marathons I've not been all that happy with the performances. If I can get over the illness I've been suffering I've got several opportunities.
I've currently got two 12 hour endurance races and four trail marathons booked, I've also got my first road marathon coming up. I may book another two 12 hour races, and another couple of trail marathon.
The biggest challenge with some of these is running a 12 hour followed by a marathon the following day.

Hi can I ask how you log kettlebells as I can't find them on the list?1 -
Back squat 100kg and Deadlift 150kg.
I have some CrossFit Girl WOD goals: sub 6 min Fran time (21, 15, 9 thursters at 30kg and pull ups)
Do better in the Crossfit open this year than last year
do one muscle up.1 -
Finish strong lifts and reassess strength goals after.
Get in the water 3-4 times a week and average 3,000-5,000 meters per swim.
And do more mobility work. I've been bad about this over the last year and I'm paying the price currently.1 -
I have a goal of being able to walk for one hour by the end of next week. Can currently do 10 minutes.
By the end of the year I want to be able to run 20 miles.
I'm normally very fit, can run 15 miles but I'm recovering from surgery so need to walk before I can run!2 -
surprised myself at having swam over 200 miles in 2017.
Let's go for 300 in 2018!1 -
A few things...
Drop another 20 pounds, and master the rope climb.
After 8 months of CrossFit I’m starting powerlifting today. I’ll do that for a few months to get my strength up and then start including CrossFit again to prepare for the multiple OCR races I’ve signed up for this year.
Should be a fun year!1 -
Improve my swimming by April so I can go Scuba diving, snorkelling and enjoy other water sports on holiday.
Complete the C25K programme to be able to compete in a 5k race in March for work.
Begin regular strength training on my own in addition to a class (have shied away from doing this personally)
Lose 28 pounds to get me to my halfway point towards goal weight.2 -
I am having problems with setting a 2018 fitness goal, rehabbing a shoulder injury is causing that. I think I will just start with rehabbing my shoulder so I can get back to my normal workouts.1
