YOGA TODAY AT 6:30 PM!

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 you get to lift heavy relative to your capacity. The effort should require all of your focus and attention to execute each set.

Look back to Jan. 28 of this year to see your most recent 3-rep front squat lift.

Or, if you are familiar with a recent 1-rep-max front squat, lift around 70% or more of that number in each set of three.

Perform a new set every 3 minutes to give ample rest between lifts.

Following the workout, we will spend some time on mobility.
