NOW

Do you have what it takes?

The answer comes from within, and I will say that since you are right here, right now, the answer is a resounding…

ABSOLUTELY!!

The Four D’s

Your success will mirror our philosophy which begins with the 4 D’s.

DESIRE-Has there been something in your life that you wanted or wished for really bad? A healthy baby, a new car, a cold glass of water, a hot bath, a PB in a race, the latest iPhone…of course you have. Certainly your presence here may be for curiosity sake; however, I am willing to bet you are interested in some type improvement or increase in performance in your sporting life, health, or both. Well, it appears this desire has brought you to the right place! Desire is just the beginning of your steps to success as you will now have to demonstrate…

DEDICATION-to realize your dream. Are you willing to take the next step? It is one thing to desire something, it is a whole other ballgame to actually do something about it. Does “I’ll probably start tomorrow” or “I better really think about this” or “I’ll have to speak with my husband/wife first” sound familiar? These are all familiar refrains used to procrastinate or give oneself an out rather than committing to achieving your dreams, hopes, and goals. Dedicating yourself with purpose will produce the results you are seeking only if you have the…

DISCIPLINE-to follow the plan and stay the course! Everyone, I repeat, everyone has been disciplined at something in their lives. Did you graduate from university or college? Yes, well, guess what? Without discipline you would be out a whole lot of money and you wouldn’t have that pretty ol’ piece of paper so beautifully framed hanging on the wall of your study. Have you ever put together a completed photo album or scrapbook? Yep, well again this shows discipline. To finish a project such as this takes planning, effort, time, and execution (and a whole lot of patience if you are like me!). Like a fine dish missing a key ingredient, your ability to succeed may lack that one key characteristic which will finally put you over the top. It is imperative to display the…

DETERMINATION-to follow through! Your resolve is second to none. You won’t take no for an answer and you will persevere through thick and thin. It is not a matter of if but rather when. The road will be challenging and at times difficult; however, the single-mindedness of your purpose, focus and efforts will lead to your ultimate success.

Okay, so you now understand what is personally required to achieve your goals which is represented by the 4 in 46 Sport and Fitness. So what the heck is with the 6?

Six Degrees of Separation

The premise behind 6 degrees of separation is such that each and every person in our wonderful world is connected by no more than six intermediaries. In its simplest form this means that we are all part of one community despite our individual differences. The sense of community is an integral part of 46 Sport and Fitness’ mission to provide an environment where everyone succeeds in reaching their goals. Our objective is to facilitate your success by encouraging support from fellow members via our 46 Sport and Fitness ‘Sandbox’.

“Okay, sounds great, now what do I do?”

It depends exactly what you are looking for?

Are you fed up with all the BS out there and you just want a straight-forward, realistic plan to help you reach your goals?
Can’t seem to break through that plateau in your training leading to so-so results?
Unable to get your 10K time down despite repeated efforts and trying assorted training plans?
Not know which way to turn half the time? What is best for you and how do you get there?
Tried “everything under the sun” to get a handle on your health and fitness but no consistent progress?
Never had to worry about staying fit and trim until “suddenly one day…?”
Recently had a health scare and woke up to the fact that action is needed NOW?
Determined to be in best shape of your life no matter your age or current condition?
Need someone to keep you in line and hold you accountable?
Frustrated with the quality of past training & coaching and tired of wasting your money?

We could go on and on. The bottom line is if you answered yes to any of these questions then you are ready to try 46 Sport and Fitness and get real results in real time!
