I am so excited to announce the theme of our November fit club… the Gains + Gratitude Bootcamp Challenge! It will be a 30 Day challenge of our minds + bodies to get GAINS physically and mentally.
We have so much to be grateful for! This month, we are going to show gratitude for our bodies by fueling them with delicious eats and moving them each day. Then, we will share gratitude by reflecting on our days and tracking
the things we are grateful for, big and small, each day!
Here are our theme days to get excited about!
📔 Stronger than Yesterday Mondays!
📔 Eat, Drink and Be Thankful Tuesdays!
📔 Pump Up Wednesdays!
📔 Thankful Thursdays!
📔 Never Have I Ever… Fridays!
📔 Accountability Saturdays!
📔 Gains + Gratitude Sundays!
What is a goal you have on your mind? I’d love to share more about my bootcamps, workout access, and nutrition plans to see if working together will help you reach it!
Time to talk about gains!
Did you know that the most dynamic changes in our body come from our nutrition and not our workouts? Muscle growth and toning happen when you’re consistent with a great program, but
working out for 30 minutes a day, alone, won’t get you there.
Nutrition does not need to be complicated though! Just by making an effort to eat healthy foods, your body will have the energy it needs to push through that workout and grow and
repair your muscles after you put in the work.
Here is a challenge to get you started: sub one processed food choice each day with a whole, clean eating option. If you stop for a fast-food lunch each day, pack a bento box of
fruits, vegetables, whole carbs, and protein!
To build muscle, you’ll need to focus on getting enough high-quality protein in your diet. The daily recommended intake (DRI) for inactive adults is 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram
of bodyweight. (Try a DRI calculator out if you don’t feel like doing math!)
But once you add exercise into the mix, protein requirements go up. High-protein foods include chicken, turkey, eggs, cheese, and yogurt.
If you’re vegetarian or vegan, you can build muscle with the help of plenty of tasty and versatile plant-based protein options from nuts and seeds to legumes and soy products like tofu
and tempeh.
How can you add more protein to your meal plan today? Make a substitute this week that cuts the processed foods and increases your protein intake!

My most important habit: movement.
.
I have made exercise a habit for me for the last 6.5 years and I don’t ever regret moving.
.
I started when I only had 2 kids, but I can promise you that with having 4, this is wayyy more about sanity than vanity
.
I implemented home workouts into my morning routine—no commute, no sitter, no one watching me, —by choosing a time, sticking to that time, having a plan B if someone woke up during my time and promising myself to be committed but flexible
.
The impact this has had on me and my family is honestly hard to sum up...it was a massive domino effect. I became more aware of my movement and what I chose to eat (cause hello, mindless eating is a thing ), my kids saw me working hard every day to be healthier and would imitate me, my mood improved, energy increased, and I slept better. So many dang benefits, and did I mention processing stress and
emotions? SANITY. So much sanity comes from this one habit. Even my marriage saw numerous benefits
.
I want to invite you to be part of my September crew...and beyond (I got you ). I promise to share all of my tips with you on how I started my journey and what my routine has looked like over the years through postpartum, pregnancy, newborn life, toddler mom life, and more.
.
Now to channel some of this focus into cutting out my habit of yelling...because kids
