Aerial SMART Goals

In my previous blog, I introduced the concept of the SMART curriculum for putting together a plan to achieve a goal.  In this blog I am going to break down a couple of my own goals which will serve as an example for how to go about using this system in your aerial fitness agenda. Looking for a way to plan your week or month and stay accountable?  Check out my February 2017 blog about Fitness Planning for tips and templates to help you stay organized. 


GOAL 1

SPECIFIC: I will be able to complete a basic climb on the silks twice on each leg with at least five increments up the silks after a twenty minute warm-up within 2 minutes. 


MEASURABLE: Time myself completing this task via video.


ATTAINABLE: What do I need to do to attain this? Practice my climb drills in a cardio style endurance building manner using the 2 minute marker as addressed in my goal. 


REASONABLE/REALISTIC: Yes. I have a solid basic climb bilaterally. I am working on building endurance in my climbs and have no limitations that would prevent me from achieving this goal. 


TIME-BOUND: 2 minute climb drill set by 4 weeks. 


GOAL 2

SPECIFIC: I will attend 2 or more Trapeze classes in the next 4 weeks.


MEASURABLE: Write classes in my day planner to track my progress.


ATTAINABLE: Trapeze classes are on Wednesdays.  For the month of November, I had 4 Wednesdays that did not have any after work commitments. 


REASONABLE: Yes, my schedule will allow me to attend classes. Trapeze is an apparatus within my skill set.


TIME-BOUND: 2 classes in a 4 week time frame.


GOAL 3

SPECIFIC: To write a routine for Trapeze that I can perform in the upcoming student/instructor showcase on December 16th. 


MEASURABLE: Video documentation will determine my progress and readiness to perform.


ATTAINABLE:  Choose a song and write a routine using skill level appropriate trapeze moves.


REASONABLE: I am giving myself 46 days to prepare a routine on trapeze. 


TIME-BOUND: At the time of this goal being made, I have 46 days until the performance on December 16th.
