You start off with good intentions but invariably you find yourself falling short of your health and fitness goals. Here's the thing though: it happens to all of us and the key is to have the tips and tricks to keep yourself motivated and on track when you do fall short.

This week's podcast is about the top ten ways you can stay motivated and succeed with your health and fitness goals.

Listen to the full show to get all ten but I'll be discussing the importance of balance, rewards, goal-setting, your friendship circle, reviewing and refreshing, and visualisation.

Start trying these tips today, let me know how you get on and if you have any other motivation hacks that work for you. I'm on [email protected] and @KarlHenryPT on Twitter and Instagram.
