Welcome to a new week! This is the third week of our September nutrition challenge, and this week we are focusing on GREEN, think kale, kiwis, grapes, zucchini, etc. Green fruits and vegetables contain many antioxidants. Leafy greens are especially important and contain many vitamins, minerals, and folic acid. Again, we are asking you all to get one serving of fruit and one serving of vegetable within the weekly color theme. Get creative and tag us in your green recipes!

We can't wait to see you all back in the gym this week. Remember, growth is not easy, but it doesn't have to be complicated. Show up each day ready to put in the work, and you will be amazed by the results!

Whiteboard of the Day

Today's workout has an ascending rep scheme. Expect the first few rounds to move pretty quickly and then to slow down when you hit double digits.

Keep moving on the sit-ups, remembering to breathe and preparing for the next set of push jerks.

Choose a light-to-moderate loading that allows you to perform at least 5 unbroken reps every time you pick up the barbell.

Expect to hit your workout weight if not more in the pre-workout shoulder-to-overhead complex.

Following the workout, stick around for some stretching before you leave the gym.
