SMART Goals
Hey Everybody!
Today we are going to focus on SMART goals. I get asked a lot about how I accomplish so many big tasks and still have time to have fun while doing it. When I am thinking of goals I would like to accomplish, I like to use this formula in order to make my goals work for me!
What does SMART stand for?
Specific: What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Who, What, Where.
Measurable: How will I know when my goal is accomplished? What part of my goal can be measured?
Achievable: Is your goal attainable? You weigh the benefits from the risks and drawbacks. Can you pursue this without undervaluing your current obligations? Can you realistically accomplish this goal? Don’t set yourself up for failure.
Relevant: How is this goal significant to your goals in life?
Time-Bound: When will you accomplish this goal? Make sure you have a specific day in mind.
Let’s try turning a regular goal into a smart goal.
I want to run a marathon.
Specific: Who=I What= run a marathon Where = Ogden
Measurable: 26.2 miles
Achievable: This goal may not be attainable for everyone but it is for me. I have run many half marathons and I am following a training schedule.
Relevent: I want to live a healthy life so this falls into that category.
Time-Bound: The marathon is on May 18th so it will be accomplished by then.
Now we’ve turned a regular goal into a SMART goal.
I will follow my training schedule for nine weeks prior to running the Ogden marathon on May 18th, I have run multiple half marathons prior to my training weeks.
What is something you would like to work towards? It can be personal or work related. It can be anything! I have used these for school, work, traveling, fitness, etc. If you can think of any type of goal that you would like to achieve, it can be turned into a SMART goal.

Booty Band On The Go
Hey Everybody!
I have a video below of a workout that I do while I am on the go. I love to bring my booty band by Flexliving with me when I am traveling. It is small and takes up almost no room in my bag which is great. They are also a company that is based out of Utah so I love that!
I was never been able to find a band that doesn’t roll up my legs while I was working out, until I used this one! I have also never had this band slide out of place on my legs, which is another huge plus! I like to use the large band for this workout as it helps you to engage your glutes more.
I brought it while I was traveling for two weeks with only a small backpack that had to weigh under 22 pounds! As I have said before staying in shape while traveling is not very hard as long as it is one of your priorities.
This workout is a great one for your glutes as well as your legs!
I do three sets of the following:
Lateral Leg Lifts 10 reps each leg
Donkey kicks 10 reps each leg
Fire hydrants 10 reps each leg
Hip thrusters 20 reps (unless you add weight then do 10 reps)
Squat side lifts 15 reps
Squat jumps 15 reps
Banded adduction 20 reps
You can get the exact band that I use by following the link below! If you use code HAYLEY10, you will also get 10% off!
