What are your “Bucket List” goals for 2025?

bucket list goals for 2022

The start of a new year is always a time of optimism – the chance to reflect on the last year, and set some new goals and plans for the upcoming 12 months.

It feels like we’re getting a clean slate to start from, which is exciting!

So what are your “Bucket List” goals for 2025?

The phrase “Bucket List” refers to a list of all the things you want to do in your life before you “kick the bucket”.  It was popularized by the 2007 movie “The Bucket List”, starring Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman (which is a great movie, if you haven’t seen it).

Bucket List goals are those big ones that represent a long-time ambition you’ve had to have a particular experience, or accomplishing something that represents a milestone in your life. It’s one of those experiences that creates lasting memories.

And as we get over 50, it seems there’s a little greater sense of urgency to get those types of experiences checked off on our Bucket List.

Of course proper planning and preparation are crucial to successfully achieving a Bucket List goal. And that’s where consistent strength training and appropriate physical activity come into play.

Muscles produce movement, and strong muscles produce strong movements – so if your goals are going to be physically challenging, you need to be scheduling your strength training appointments with yourself to make sure you’re setting yourself up for success.

 

This year, I’m planning a summer road trip around the U.S., which will include hiking in several national parks, and of course plenty of sightseeing.

And to prepare for that trip, I’ll be strength training with renewed purpose and motivation! I’ll also be incorporating the stair-stepper in the gym to get ready for mountain hiking (there’s pretty much no hills in Florida, in case you’ve never been here).

And I know that if I strength train intensely and consistently, and keep up with my physical activity plan, I’ll have the best trip – and make the best memories – that I possibly can.

That’s what Strength After 50 is all about – staying strong and rebuilding ourselves so we can live full, active lives.

So if you haven’t already:

  • Create your bucket list
  • Set a goal to check off one of the items on your list this year
  • Get in the habit of consistent strength training and physical activity to set yourself up for success.

Happy Bucket-Listing!

    I joined an 8 week challenge to jump start my fat loss and muscle building journey. It’s for women over 50 so it should be good.
