Accountablity is EVERYTHING!

My son has a reading folder that we log his time spent reading in each night.  One night he asked me why we had to write down the time he spent reading.  Then he asked how his teacher would know if we just put a time down but didn't really read that long.  After the talk about honesty I mentioned the word accountable. 

 According to dictionary.com Accountable is an–adjective
To report, explain, or justify something; responsible; answerable.
or
capable of being explained; explicable; explainable.

  As humans our success rate increases when we have to report our actions to someone.  My advice to those starting any exercise program, training plan or nutrition plan is find someone to be accountable to.  Whether it's your neighbor, a co-worker, best friend, sister, mom or husband it must be someone who will not pass judgement but doesn't refrain from keeping you on track.  My effort to be accountable with my training has a place here as well.  On Sunday's I'll be posting my workout schedule for the week.  A few times during the week I'll update my meals and my workout progress for the week.  Congrats...Your my new BFF!
