¶1This is an appeal from an upward departure sentence. The trial court gave the following reasons for departure:
1. The Defendant, by separate Order of this date, has been declared a habitual offender and that a sentence exceeding *1124the guidelines is necessary for the protection of the public.
2.The Defendant’s past criminal record indicates that he will continue a life of crime and there is no reason and hope of rehabilitation.
¶2The first reason is invalid. Whitehead v. State, 498 So.2d 863 (Fla.1986); Mitchell v. State, 513 So.2d 1122 (Fla. 4th DCA 1987); Young v. State, 489 So.2d 199 (Fla. 2nd DCA 1986); Gales v. State, 515 So.2d 431 (Fla. 4th DCA 1987). The second reason is also invalid. Hendrix v. State, 475 So.2d 1218 (Fla.1985); Whitehead v. State, supra; Montalvo v. State, 520 So.2d 292 (Fla. 2nd DCA 1987); Broomhead v. State, 497 So.2d 734 (Fla. 2nd DCA 1986); Coleman v. State, 515 So.2d 313 (Fla. 2nd DCA 1987); Coleman v. State, 521 So.2d 265 (Fla. 2nd DCA 1988).
¶3The sentence is therefore reversed and the cause is remanded to the trial court for resentencing within the guidelines range.
