MVMNT Strong – From the Whole Life Challenge to powerlifting to Olympic weightlifting to the Open, Team MVMNT put on a great showing this weekend.
Whole Life Challenge – After six weeks of tracking nutrition, sleep, exercise, mobility and journaling the entire experience, the Whole Life Challenge is 18.DONE. And two out of the three Open Team Captains took home first and second place wins. Turn Down for WOD’s sidekick, Andrew, took third followed by his mother-in-law. How freaking awesome is that??
Massive congratulations to every single person that started and finished strong. Six weeks feels like a lifetime when you’re trying to make life changing habits. We look forward to taking on the next WLC with you!
