Building training habits that last doesn’t mean going all-in or getting it “perfect” every time.

At Lift Inner West, we help people build sustainable, flexible routines that fit their real lives, not their ideal ones. Training shouldn’t be a phase or a short-term sprint. It should feel as natural and regular as brushing your teeth. If you’ve struggled to stay consistent, this article will help you rethink the way you approach training, so you can build habits that truly last.

Start With Your Schedule, Not Your Goals

When it comes to building training habits that last, start with what’s manageable now.
Two sessions a week? Great.
Forget perfection, your plan only works if you can actually stick to it.

Link It to Existing Habits

Habit stacking is powerful.
Try training right after school drop-off, or before your morning coffee.
Link it to something you already do and it becomes part of your rhythm.

Track Consistency, Not Just Results

You might not always see physical results immediately, but showing up matters.
Track your sessions. Celebrate your streaks. Build momentum.

Remove the Barriers

• Pack your gear the night before
• Pre-book your session
• Keep it short and achievable
The easier you make it to train, the more likely it is to stick.
