Fitness journal prompts can be life-changing for your health. They are great to inspire positive changes in your body, make you self-aware, and take a kinder approach to your physical health.

Use this collection of 51 journal prompts to work on your fitness and raise the bar of your wellness meter.

Fitness is a hot topic of conversation around the globe. As people become aware of the importance of health maintenance, the need to work on their bodies becomes more prominent.

It makes me super happy when I see people jogging, looking up healthy recipes, and cultivating self-love on their quest for wellness.

Though fitness isn’t without its own challenges.

Working toward your health goals can be a lonesome process. It has its own ups and downs, that you might struggle to describe to even a close friend.

When you don’t see any (visible) results, and find yourself getting tired and lazy (which, being humans, is completely natural), it can be hard to keep your motivation running.

That is where fitness journaling comes in (a.k.a. my current best friend in the health department.)

Fitness Journaling

About two years back, I got re-introduced to the realm of journals. There were many important lessons I wanted to unlock through journaling, and countless thoughts that I needed to touch upon.

But I knew my health had to be at the top of this very messy, but beautiful pile of topics I wanted to write about. And it’s amazing what a grand load of a difference it made to my life.

I was able to fix my sleep routine, stay consistent with my workouts, and create some beautiful eating habits.

A fitness journal is a great tool that helps you keep track of your health goals and also accomplish them (for real.)

When I started out with this activity, I loved looking up health journal prompts, which is a perfect way to unlock your hidden aspirations.

After many nights of journaling and soul-searching, I’ve come up with some thought-provoking questions that are amazing for anyone looking to get fit and healthy.
