How to Crush Your Gym Goals This Holiday Season with Our Community at Brickyard Performance
The holiday season is a time for celebration, family gatherings, and, of course, indulgence in your favorite treats. But it’s also the time of year when your fitness goals can start to feel like they’re slipping away. With all the parties, shopping, and travel, sticking to your gym routine can seem challenging. That’s where Brickyard Performance comes in! Our community-driven approach to fitness will not only help you stay on track but actually crush your gym goals this holiday season.
Here’s how you can achieve your fitness goals during the holidays with the support, motivation, and unique offerings at Brickyard Performance.
1. Set Clear, Achievable Goals (And Make Them Fun!)
One of the most important things you can do when it comes to achieving any fitness goal is to make it specific and achievable. Instead of vague resolutions like "get fitter" or "work out more," break down your goal into smaller, more concrete steps.
For example:
Strength goal: Increase your deadlift by 20 pounds.
Endurance goal: Complete a Hyrox competition in under a certain time.
Skill goal: Master a new CrossFit movement like double-unders or muscle-ups.
At Brickyard Performance, we provide a variety of functional training classes — including CrossFit, Hyrox, Athlete Training, Boxing, Fight Club, and even Self-Defense — that allow you to focus on different aspects of fitness. Whether your goal is strength, conditioning, or skill-building, we have a class and a coach to help you get there. By setting specific and measurable goals, you’ll stay focused and motivated, even when the holiday distractions are in full swing.
2. Join a Class and Commit to Consistency
When life gets busy, it’s easy to skip workouts — especially with all the holiday commitments. That’s why committing to a Brickyard Performance class can be a game changer. Our community-driven classes are designed to keep you accountable. When you sign up for a class, you’re not just committing to a workout — you’re committing to the community.
Being surrounded by like-minded individuals who are all working toward similar goals will keep you motivated even on those days when the temptation to skip a session is strong. Plus, our coaches will provide constant support and encouragement to help you push through, whether you're working on your CrossFit lifts, prepping for a Hyrox challenge, or learning new self-defense techniques.
3. Embrace the Holiday Hustle and Stay Active
The holiday season doesn’t have to mean falling off track. In fact, it's the perfect time to stay active and use the season to build momentum for the year ahead. At Brickyard Performance, we know that life doesn’t slow down just because it's the holidays. That’s why we offer a variety of options for functional training that can work around your schedule.
CrossFit is an excellent way to burn off those extra holiday calories while improving your overall strength and conditioning.
Hyrox, with its combination of running and strength exercises, is perfect for keeping you in top cardiovascular shape during the winter months.
Fight Club and Boxing offer a fun, intense way to improve both physical fitness and mental toughness, giving you a great outlet for any holiday stress.
So, even when you're juggling holiday parties, shopping, and family time, you can still get in a high-energy, effective workout that makes you feel stronger and more energized.
4. Incorporate Recovery into Your Routine
During the holiday season, it’s easy to overdo it. Between all the shopping, traveling, and holiday festivities, your body can take a beating. But to crush your goals, recovery is just as important as your workouts. Luckily, Brickyard Performance isn’t just about pushing hard in the gym — we also focus on recovery and bodywork to help you perform at your best.
Our Bodywork & Recovery services are here to support your fitness journey, whether it's a massage, mobility work, or stretching sessions. Regular recovery helps you avoid injuries, reduces soreness, and allows you to come back stronger. By incorporating recovery into your routine, you’ll be ready to crush your goals every week — even through the busy holiday season.
5. Stay Accountable with the Brickyard Community
The power of a supportive community is one of the biggest reasons our members succeed. When you train at Brickyard Performance, you're not just another gym member — you're part of a team. Our community is built on mutual encouragement, celebration of each other’s victories, and shared goals.
Whether it’s cheering each other on during a tough Hyrox workout, supporting a fellow member in Boxing, or high-fiving after a challenging CrossFit WOD, the Brickyard community is always there to help you stay motivated. Having this kind of support can be a game-changer during the holidays when distractions are everywhere. Plus, nothing feels better than accomplishing your goals surrounded by a group of people who truly want to see you succeed.
6. Keep Your Nutrition in Check (But Have Fun Too!)
Let’s be honest: The holiday season is full of temptations. From festive cookies to holiday cocktails, it's easy to overindulge. But staying mindful of your nutrition doesn’t mean depriving yourself of the things you enjoy — it’s about finding balance. Brickyard Performance offers tips and guidance on how to fuel your body properly, even during the holiday season.
Our coaches are happy to share nutrition advice to complement your training, helping you stay on track with your fitness goals. Simple tweaks like being mindful of portion sizes or prioritizing protein can help you enjoy the season without undoing all your hard work. And when you’re able to balance holiday treats with healthy habits, you’ll feel energized and ready to crush your workouts.
7. Take Advantage of Holiday Challenges and Events
At Brickyard Performance, the holidays aren’t just about getting through the season — they’re about making the most of it! We offer fitness challenges, holiday events, and special workouts that will keep you engaged and excited. These events not only make your training more fun, but they also give you extra motivation to keep pushing.
Whether it's a special holiday-themed CrossFit WOD, a Hyrox-inspired race, or a community boxing class, there’s always something happening at Brickyard Performance to keep you on your toes. These challenges help you stay focused, and you'll get to celebrate your achievements with the amazing Brickyard community.
