Health and Fitness July 2026

Post by Lady Maverick »

July is the perfect midpoint to refresh your health and wellness goals for 2026.
Success isn't built by making the biggest changes. It's built by making the next right choice. You don't have to wait until Monday, next month, or after vacation to get back on track. Every healthy meal, every bottle of water, every walk, and every decision to keep going is another brick in the foundation of the lifestyle you're creating. Small choices may not seem like much today, but they add up to incredible results over time.
Focus
Choose
Commit
Repeat

This is a safe place to share your thoughts, struggles, triumphs and questions about all aspects of your health and fitness.

Thank you for starting us for July, LadyM.

My habits this month will be the same four again: pelvic floor exercises, sit to stand x5, drinking water and clearing the kitchen table.

Edited to.add:.I woul.like.to.get.back into the habit of a daily walk ( weather permitting!), which means making it a priority. For this month I will"count" even a.short walk round the block, as it's helping.form.a.habit.

Fiber > 21g

Paper capture & planning
Digital SHE cards used
Daily Project

Steps >7000
30 minutes of walking outside with arms swinging.
Hourly movement (over 250 steps) =>10
Workout with AI personal trainer (upper body, lower body and stretch rotation)

⭐ Success

You guys make me squeamish with your so faithful check ins! I sure wish I could get additional habits going but my focus hasn't been there. I didn't hit 49K last week and won't this week either. This week the heat has been the issue. I also skipped my workout yesterday - I just did not want to leave the house in the heat of the afternoon.
