100 Days: Why You Don’t Need to Wait for New Year’s to Start

On September 22nd, something quietly powerful happens, there are exactly 100 days left in the year.

It’s a number that feels both big and small at the same time. Big, because 100 days is a huge opportunity to make meaningful changes. Small, because it’s a reminder that the year is slipping away fast.

But here’s the thing: you don’t need to wait until January 1st to make a change. Why give your future self a whole year’s delay when you can give yourself a 100-day head start right now?

100 days is plenty of time

Think about it:

  • Training 3 times a week = 40+ workouts between now and New Year’s.
  • Walking 20 minutes a day = over 33 hours of extra movement.
  • Adding 20g of protein to your meals = thousands of grams of fuel to support recovery and strength.
  • Prioritising sleep = 100 chances to wake up feeling better than you do today.

That’s not small. That’s life-changing.

Stop waiting for “the perfect time”

We love fresh starts. Mondays, birthdays, New Year’s Day. But real change doesn’t wait for the calendar to flip. The truth is, the best time to start is usually when you feel least ready because starting creates momentum, and momentum builds progress.

By the time January rolls around, you could already:

  • Be fitter, stronger, and more energised.
  • Have built habits that don’t feel like “resolutions” but just part of your lifestyle.
  • Head into 2026 with a sense of achievement instead of another set of promises.

A 100-day head start on the new year

At Ultra, we see September 22nd as the perfect chance to stop thinking “next year will be different” and actually prove it to yourself right now. Small actions, done consistently, stack up fast.

So instead of waiting for New Year’s resolutions, give yourself the gift of a 100-day head start. Start lifting. Start walking. Start fuelling your body better. Start whatever matters most to you.

Because when you look back on this year, you’ll realise there was more than enough time to do something amazing with it.
