Don’t Quit on Yourself: The Truth About the Second Friday of January
It’s mid-January, and for many, the fire of New Year’s resolutions starts to flicker. Historically, the second Friday in January is known as the day most people quit their fitness goals. The excitement of “New Year, New Me” starts to fade, and the grind of daily workouts feels harder than expected.
But let me tell you something: this moment, right here, is where real transformation begins.
Why People Quit
The first week of a new program is fueled by excitement and energy. You’ve set your goals, planned your workouts, and envisioned your success. But by the second week, the motivation dips. Results don’t come as quickly as you hoped, and life throws obstacles your way.
It’s not just you. It happens to everyone—even me.
I’m Feeling It Too!
Let me be real with you: I’m going through the same lack of motivation as you right now. Starting a new program is tough, even for someone who lives and breathes fitness. But this year, I’m doing something different—I’m sharing every single workout I do in this 6-week January Transformation Program on my app, Unlock By Locksmith.
You’ll see the struggles, the sweat, and even the moments where I want to quit. Why? Because I want to show you that you’re not alone. We’re in this together.
When you feel like skipping a workout, know that I’m out there grinding too. When you’re doubting yourself, know I’ve been there. The difference is, we don’t stop.
The January Transformation Program: More Than a Plan
This program isn’t just about workouts—it’s about building resilience and proving to yourself that you can do hard things. On the app, you’ll find:
• Every Workout I’m Doing: Follow along with my exact plan, designed to get results over 6 weeks.
• Tools to Stay Accountable: Track your progress and stay consistent, even when motivation is low.
• Real Talk Motivation: Tips, mindset shifts, and encouragement to push through the tough days.
Why You Should Keep Going
Transformation isn’t linear—it’s messy, full of highs and lows. The second Friday slump is just a bump in the road. When you feel like giving up, remind yourself of why you started. Picture the version of yourself you’re working toward.
If I can push through, so can you. Every rep, every step, every struggle brings us closer to our goals.
This Is Your Moment
You didn’t start this journey for an easy ride. You started to challenge yourself, to grow, and to become the person you’ve always wanted to be. That person isn’t found by quitting. They’re built by showing up, even when it’s hard.
Open the Unlock By Locksmith app, join the January Transformation Program, and let’s tackle these next six weeks together. I’ll be sweating alongside you, pushing through the same doubts, and celebrating every win.
We’re in this together. Don’t give up. Your future self is counting on you.
