Hello! It's Labor Day and students everywhere are getting ready to go back to school if they haven't already. Even if we ourselves aren't going back to school, somehow it feels like the start of something. Let's take advantage of that feeling of a clean slate with a get back to basics challenge. Remember the 8 healthy guidelines? Me neither, so I looked them up: at least 5 fruits&veggies, 2 servings healthy oils, choose whole grain whenever possible, 2-3 servings dairy, get enough protein by choosing at least a serving or two of lean proteins, limit added sugar or alcohol, drink at least 6 8oz servings of water, and take a daily vitamin-mineral supplement if needed. And let's seal the deal by keeping a daily journal and tracking these guidelines as well as our food choices! With each other's support, we got this!!
WELCOME EVERYONE anytime and yes you can walk/jog/run or combo, cycling, spinning, swimming, aerobic classes, elliptical machine, yoga, pilates, strength train and core work too!
Each week you set and post your own attainable mileage/minutes goal and strive to achieve it. Saturday thru Friday is our fitness week with Saturday morning weigh-ins (WI). WIs are encouraged but optional. There is no judgement here!
This challenge runs from Labor Day thru October 1.
