Forget Dry January or extreme January diets, because seven in ten younger Brits think the New Year's Resolution is old fashioned and outdated.
According to the findings, modern Brits believe traditional pledges, such as January diets (41 percent), finding the 'one' (36 percent) and avoiding booze for January (34 percent) are pointless.

Small Changes make Long-Term Improvement
A spokesperson for Vital Proteins, which commissioned the study commented, "With modern Brits shunning the idea of making New Year's resolutions, it's not surprising people are starting to think about the small things we can add into our days over a long period of time that will make a big difference in the long term."
Four in ten (38 percent) Gen Z Brits share healthy routines with their followers on TikTok and Instagram.
Going out for a daily walk (38 percent), cooking meals from scratch (32 percent), scheduling in some 'me' time (27 percent) and running (26 percent) are the year long health and wellbeing activities that under 29s engage in.
Overall, 71 percent think the younger generation are more modest and sensible when it comes to alcohol and overindulging, compared to older generations.
