The Only New Year’s Resolution You Need: 5 Minutes a Day. Build Lasting Fitness Habits with Support from Triad Wellness Coaches in Philadelphia

build manageable consistent habits in 2026

Every year, we make resolutions we don’t keep.

Gym memberships go unused.

Expensive meal plans collect dust.

Ambitious goals like “work out six days a week” or “run five miles every morning” fall apart by February.

We’re not failing because we’re lazy. We’re failing because our resolutions are unrealistic.

I’m a new dad, and I get it more than ever. Between running a business, helping clients, and raising my son, time is tight. But I want to be around for the long haul. I want to show up for my family with energy, strength, and presence—and so do you.

That’s why this year, I’m asking you to do something different.

Start with Just 5 Minutes a Day

Forget “all or nothing.” What if you gave yourself just five minutes each day to move your body?

Science backs this up. A study published in JAMA Network Open (2022) found that even small increases in daily physical activity (like 5–10 minutes a day) were linked to significantly reduced risk of all-cause mortality. Another study in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine (2019) found that short bouts of movement throughout the day improved both mood and mobility, especially in busy adults.

This is why Triad coaches build you a plan that works with your life. When you train with us—whether it’s once a week in person or through remote programming—we include a personalized daily movement “homework” plan that’s broken down by day, time available, and equipment on hand. You’ll leave each session knowing exactly what to do and how long it’ll take.

Train Once a Week. Move Every Day.

The best part? You don’t need to train 5 days a week to get results. Most of our clients come in once a week for personal training. During that session, we check in, coach you through a full-body workout, and write out your plan for the week based on your schedule, stress level, and recovery needs.

Then it’s just a matter of consistency.

Don’t underestimate what a short, focused daily routine can do for your energy, joint health, posture, and long-term fitness.

You Don't Have to Go It Alone

At Triad Wellness, we’re not here to guilt you into crushing 90-minute workouts. We’re here to help you create realistic and repeatable habits that last beyond January.

We believe in personal training without the pressure—no contracts, no memberships. Just focused, one-on-one support and a clear plan to move better, feel better, and show up for your loved ones.

Let 2026 be the year you stop over-promising and start building something that sticks.
