Find your starting point

Regardless of whether it is a specific exercise or a sport you want to perform in, there are three levels of measurable goals, you could say
Process goals – Focuses on the specific tasks (eg technology, execution, such as taking focus on taking direction out of a control). These are often linked to behaviors that are desirable for better performance
Performance goals – Focuses on one’s own performance (for example, a better mileage time or increased proportion of nailed controls). You reach a specific level, may be that you reach a height, height, weight, time.
Result goals – Focuses on results in comparison with others (for example, winning a medal). The last level, when you compete with others and reach a result or place in a competition-like context.

So, think a little about what it is you want to achieve in, your goal, and what level of goal you intend to achieve. It is perfectly possible to mix goals within different levels.

Qualitative and subjective goals can be as valuable as quantitative, objective and measurable goals

Your needs need to be balanced against the goals you have for sustainable health, to avoid injuries, lost results and lost motivation to continue.
An excellent example is that you may have a goal to achieve a challenging result and that in itself can mean a larger dose of training as the recovery you have time for, which in itself can increase the risk of injury problems.
Another example where there is a contradiction between goals and needs is if you have a high-level goal and you need knowledge. support. equipment or environment that is remote to meet for various reasons.

So, think about your needs in relation to the goals so that the conditions exist for you to achieve the goals at the same time if you maintain sustainable health. The most common is that you need to recover in relation to your activity, eat healthy to give the body the nutrition, energy and building blocks you need during your year and of course there is proper sleep.

Needs can be physical, psychological, social to achieve health according to the WHO, some researchers also look at cultural and spiritual as part of our health.

Here comes an important prerequisite for performing better. To have something to start from.

So, write down what you are training today in the groups strength, mobility, coordination, endurance, speed.
What you use for tests and analyzes to keep track of the development curve is good to write down.
Finish by writing down what you have for recovery routines mentally and physically, what sleep habits you have and of course what you eat if it is a specific diet and a certain amount.

For you already diary, it is enough to have as a starting point.

An important question to answer, some results are relatively easy to achieve and so it should be, while the purpose is higher than that to achieve an achievement over time.
It takes time to build new or different routines and habits, ranging from a couple of weeks up to a year or two. A eating habit can be relatively easy to change while a habit of lifting really heavy, running faster and longer or jumping higher can take a long time.
Is the opportunity in your everyday life

So, write down what support, knowledge and time you have to implement what is needed to achieve your goals.

Patience is an important ability to make your training sustainable, just as important as carrying out your training with others.

Just as it is important to have goals and challenges, part of a change should be to find desire and have fun on the journey.

So, write down something about what will be fun and enjoyable with your journey to improved performance.

Seeing a positive meaning is important to keep the motivation and mood up, it can give a different perspective in the event of adversity.
