Happy September! This month we are focusing in on nutrition with our Be Better Rainbow Food Challenge! Each day we want you to each one serving of fruits and one serving of veggies in the color theme for the week. This week is RED, so think strawberries, watermelon, tomatoes, red cabbage, etc. GET CREATIVE! Red vegetables and fruits contain antioxidants that are important for heart health, can lower cholesterol, and can lower the risk of developing some cancers. We will be posting some easy recipes, but we also can't wait to see what you all come up with too. We also are kicking off month two of our committed club, so get yourself to the gym for some fitness, fun, and community. Let's get after it!

Whiteboard of the Day
Today's Hero workout is in honor of U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Edwardo Loredo, 34, of Houston, Texas, assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 508th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, based in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, who was killed on June 24, 2010, in Jelewar, Afghanistan when insurgents attacked his unit with an improvised explosive device. He is survived by his wife, First Sergeant Jennifer Loredo; his daughter, Laura Isabelle; his stepdaughter, Alexis; and his son, Eduardo Enrique.
During this longer, bodyweight workout, choose a scaling option that should enable you to keep each set of gymnastics to 1:00 or less, and each round to 5:00 or less throughout the workout. During the workout, reduce volume if a specific movement starts to take longer than 1:00 per round.
Prioritize quality range of motion over speed. If hitting full range of motion on any movement is an issue, scale as needed. Otherwise, take on this longer grind.
Following the workout, stick around to stretch before heading out
