CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK

CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK: Posture Check Challenge  

Ever heard of the phrase “sitting is the new smoking?”   Poor posture is a CHRONIC problem in our society.  

When you’re sitting or standing with poor posture, you’re placing stress on muscles, tendons, and ligaments that are not designed to support that weight. 

An incredible downward spiral of effects can happen with poor posture over time:

• Lower energy levels due to less oxygen coming into the body

• It can affect your digestive system

• Can make you feel more stressed out (really- when you stand or sit up tall, you have up to a 20% increase in testosterone  

          and a 25% decrease in cortisol!)

• Can cause lower back and other chronic pain issues

• Many more…

Let’s not let our poor posture get the best of us.  

Your challenge is to pay EXTRA close attention to your posture this week and to fix it ASAP!

Place an index card or something on your desk to remind you to sit up straight or do regular posture checks.  You may be really surprised how often you catch yourself in a poor position! 

Are you UP for this Posture Challenge!? 

CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK

CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK: Fermented Foodie Challenge  

Did you know that the bacteria in your body outnumber the cells in your body by 6-10x! 

That means we have way more bacteria in our bodies than cells. 

Eating fermented foods will help to restore the balance and add lots of good bacteria back into your gut – super important! 

Many digestion issues people face like gluten intolerance, lactose intolerance, IBS, yeast infections, and certain allergies have all been linked to the good bacteria in our gut.

Fermented foods are also very rich in enzymes.  They’ll help you digest and absorb the nutrients, so your body is able to utilize the foods you eat much more effectively. 

BUT….to get the true benefit, it MUST be raw and unpasteurized. 

Your challenge this week, should you choose to accept it:  Eat Fermented Foods 2-3 times this week! (raw & unpasteurized of course) ☺

CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK

Challenge of the Week: T.V. + F.R.

  

If you like to wind down your day watching a little television…

Get ready to put down your remote because you’re going to be doing something a little different this week!

This week, you’re going to use that time a little more productively!  

Don’t worry…I’m not taking away any of your TV time, I’m just challenging you to change the way you watch.    

This week, you’ll be watching TV from the comfort of your very own foam roller (or other Self-Myofascial Release tool.)

SMR with a foam roller, tennis ball, or lacrosse ball can do amazing things for your body like:

• Get rid of knots and tightness in your muscles

• Help increase blood flow and circulation

• Reduce soreness and help you recover faster from your workouts

So 3-5 times this week, your challenge is to do a little SMR from the comfort of your own home…during the commercials while watching your fav TV show or sports game (during the Olympics would be a perfect time!)

CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK

Challenge of the Week: Make Someone’s Day  

Question for you: 
How many times have you wanted to pay someone a nice complement…

Could be a family member, a co-worker, or someone working out right next to you; but instead of paying them that compliment, you chose not to say anything? 

Not because you didn’t want to, but because you thought it might be a little AWKWARD?

Now think about this:  Can you think of a time when out of the blue, someone paid YOU a nice compliment.  

How many times has the smallest compliment totally made your day!?  

This week's challenge is all about making someone else’s day.  It’s that simple.  

Your challenge is to compliment 3 different people EVERY day this week.  

Here are the Rules:

• Be sincere… and truly mean it

• Don’t be creepy

• Must be 3 different people each day

• Have fun with this challenge!

Who’s ready to make someone’s day?
