A. Schedule workouts directly in your calendar.
B. Write down your goals so you can make sure you are on track for reaching them.

Explanation
Scheduling workouts directly in your calendar helps you stay consistent with your fitness plan because it adds structure and accountability to your routine. By setting specific times for your workouts, you are more likely to prioritize them and make them a regular part of your schedule. Writing down your goals also helps to keep you on track as it provides a visual reminder of what you are working towards, helping you stay motivated and focused on your fitness plan. Ignoring your goals and working out whenever you can may lead to inconsistency and lack of progress.

A. It will help you start your workout with a positive mindset.

Explanation
Thinking about your inspiration prior to working out can be beneficial because it helps you start your workout with a positive mindset. By reminding yourself of what inspires and motivates you, you can tap into that energy and enthusiasm, making it easier to get started and stay committed to your workout. This positive mindset can also enhance your performance and make the workout more enjoyable.

Having a clear objective helps to provide direction and motivation throughout the fitness journey. By setting a goal, individuals can outline what they want to achieve, whether it is weight loss, muscle gain, or improved overall health. This specificity allows for better planning and tracking progress, making it easier to stay committed and focused on the fitness plan.
