Subject: The “no-plan” plan for S&S January 2025

January 2025 and the New Year’s resolutions have been freshly minted or recycled for the coming year.

The “No-Plan” Plan

What is your goal or resolution for this year?


Is it the same as last year or the year before? Do you have a plan to reach the goal or goals?


But do you need either one?


In his new article, Brett Jones, StrongFirst Director of Education, begins:

I’m about to make a potentially heretical and controversial statement. Ready?


Here we go—You don’t need a goal.


And what’s more…you don’t need a plan.


In speaking with a student some time ago, the student said: “I need a goal.”


And my response was, do you? Do you need a goal? Is that the only reason you train?


Now, if having a goal is the only reason you train, imagine, if you will (cue Twilight Zone music), a world where you train because you enjoy training. You want to enjoy the process and embrace the journey over the destination.


How would you train then?
