Sticking to Your New Year’s Resolutions: Brown Alpert Medical School Expert LIVE at 4 PM

Dr. Dale Bond at the Brown Alpert Medical School will appear on GoLocal LIVE on Wednesday at 4 p.m where he will talk to the science of “sticking to your New Year’s Resolutions” — and keeping a steady exercise routine.

Studies show that only 8% of Americans who make a New Year's resolution actually keep them all year and 80% have failed by the start of February — Bond, a Professor of Psychiatry and Human Behavior at The Miriam Hospital and Brown Alpert Medical School, will talk about setting a workout habit, and when the best time to workout is.
