This is where lifestyle change has to be considered. If lasting change is to occur, 
Exercise must be performed at the recommended intensity levels in order to increase the different fitness components. These areas of fitness include: cardio-respiratory fitness, localize muscular strength and endurance, balance, and flexibility. This is not to be confused with increasing your physical activity level which will be discussed later.
Added sugar has so many negative effects on your health and energy levels that any effort to remove it completely from your dietary intake will show immediate results. Although very challenging, eliminating added sugar will help you lose weight, reduce aches and pains in joints and with headaches, lower your chances of developing insulin resistance and type II diabetes, increase your energy level, improve your gut health, immune function and overall inflammatory markers, and reduce your appetite.
If you currently smoke (and yes, this includes vaping), stop, now! This inflammatory behavior is setting the stage for all kinds of problems down the road such as, cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), heart disease and stroke, asthma, diabetes, loss of vision, ulcers, aging skin, osteoporosis, gum disease, and reproductive problems. Finding a smoking cessation program that you will be successful with would be a great S.M.A.R.T. goal to start with, just make sure to follow through and kick those cigarettes to the curb.
Another area of your dietary intake that you may want to address is dairy, especially if you have known intolerances to eggs, milk, or cheese. Dairy is known to be inflammatory and can lead to allergies and gut issues. Performing a food allergy test may help detect some problems you may have, but they are not always 100% accurate. The gold standard for identifying specific foods that may be causing you problems is found in the elimination diet where you remove foods and slowly add them back into your diet over time. This could generate some great new year’s resolution goals if you are currently experiencing gas, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, and/or other digestive problems.
Example:
Connecting with your spouse is essential in maintaining a happy and healthy marriage, especially if you are in a period of disconnect. Making your marriage a priority can be a challenge when the demands of coaching your basketball team are in full go-mode. Regardless of what is standing in the way a strong, healthy relationship requires work on both partner’s part. Goal ideas you may want to consider include: creating daily/nightly rituals, scheduling regular date nights, daily check-ins, regularly helping with chores around the house, writing him/her a love letter, reading something together, sending him/her a sexy text, and whatever else that may draw the two of you closer together.
This sounds a lot like exercise, but it isn’t. It simply means, move more; sit less. If the sitting down portion of your life can be spent standing or moving around instead if sitting, then by all means move. 
Processed foods has had a tremendously unhealthy affect on our lives. Think of it as lab “food.” It’s not really food, it’s just a bunch of chemical holding hands calling themselves a food. The difficulty in removing these “foods” from our diet lies in their benefits: quick, easy, convenient, and inexpensive. Until you truly believe that food matters with regards to your health, you will be less motivated to make a change in this area. Once you know the science behind the health horrors of processed foods, the motivation is easy and the navigation around the “benefits” of processed foods is performed more enthusiastically. A recommended weekly goal in this area would be to learn more about the health hazards of consuming processed foods. This should lead to goals that would include alternative food choices.
Getting the sleep you need is imperative for rest, recovery, and proper brain and body function. Focus and attention are amongst the first to be affected when sleep needs are not being met. This has a direct affect on your coaching performance and how well your team competes. Sleep deprivation has been linked to memory issues, a weakened immune system, high blood pressure, an increase risk in diabetes, weight gain, low sex drive, and heart disease. So, getting enough sleep is imperative to maintaining a high quality of life.
New year’s resolutions focused on stress reduction are some of the most popular made changes that people want to make every year. Learning a new skill, reading more, and taking up a new hobby are just a few ways to help reduce the stress created by coaching your basketball team. Taking a slight hiatus from the events that stress you the most can be just what the doctor ordered. So, spending time identifying activities to help you with your stress management can go a long way in helping keep your stress less harmful to your health.
