example of trainer developing a smart goal

We had a great session today with lots of strong resistance training, flexibility work, and some really exciting cardiovascular variations, including all sorts of jumps and turns. We came up with a skills-based S.M.A.R.T. goal today

MAIN GOAL: I want to become a better dancer.

Specific: I want to learn five new turns, five new jumps, and one type of splits.

Measurable: This goal is measurable because I know the number of dance skills I want to learn.

Action: I will practice my turns, jumps, and splits for 30 minutes a day.

Realistic: This goal is realistic, because I have 30 minutes every day to do things that I like to do.

Time: I want to accomplish this goal by the end of April.

PROCESS GOAL: I will procrastinate less.

Specific: I will spend only 90 minutes on the internet a day.

Measurable: This goal is measurable because I know how many minutes I spend on the internet.

Action: I will use a timer to help myself remember how long I’ve spent online.

Realistic: This goal is realistic, because I have an alarm timer on my phone.

Time: If I procrastinate less, I will have enough time to accomplish my dancing goal by the end of April.

I think that we came up with some great ideas for her goals, and I am so excited to help her achieve them!
