It\u2019s finally 2024 and that means one thing: New Year’s resolutions. From working out everyday to eating healthier, there are countless opportunities to set yourself up for success this year. However, that still leaves one question: what are the feelings about resolutions from the students at River Hill?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While New Year’s resolutions can have notable benefits, less and less students have them. Even though many people have their goals, lots of people fail to complete them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the person does not commit to overcoming the challenge, do resolutions even matter? Senior Brice Ward explains \u201cI think they\u2019re a useful tool for encouraging yourself to do better things in the future.\u201d Brice went on to discuss that to help achieve your goals you \u201cdon\u2019t pick challenging goals like a lot of people go big or go home but you have to take the little steps before the big steps.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many fitness companies piggyback on the idea that people are going to work out and try to get healthier. Senior Foster Sarisak agrees saying, \u201cI just see it as a marketing tactic and they are taking advantage of people who just want to better themselves.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One company that takes this tactic to the extreme is Planet Fitness. They reel people in with their $1 entry fee and allow you to cancel any time. However, they fail to tell you that in order to cancel your membership you have to go in person to the gym.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When making a New Years resolution it is easier said than done. Even though many people say they might exercise at the gym everyday, they most likely won\u2019t. It has become such a common thing to quit the gym that there is a day called \u201cQuitters Friday.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although people will have their resolutions to start off the new year, we will have to wait and see if they make a comeback or fade away from the yearly holiday. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
