Wednesday 2/3/16

Get involved with the Open. I’m looking for my next teammate. Who’s in? Sign up here.

In conjunction with the Open, the first 2016 MVMNT Nutrition Challenge starts February 15th.

Whether you are participating in the Open or not, EVERYONE should take some time to dial in their diet. If you’re not eating right, you’re wasting a lot of your effort in the gym. Rather than the standard January 1st Whole30 that many people would have fallen off of weeks ago (not you guys, just people in general), doing a nutrition challenge during these 5 weeks when everyone is already pushing harder and trying to recover faster just made good sense to me. Several people have already switched into Open eating mode. It’s time to jump on our bandwagon. 

Open Nutrition Challenge Rules Briefing & Talk: Saturday, February 13th at 10:30 am presented by Jade Stevens. (Not required to participate, but highly encouraged)

Jade will explain the actual rules to the win the cash and how to choose the right category to participate in: Whole30 or Performance. You’ll get the down & dirty on the Whole30 and connect with the fellow challengers. MVMNT coach, Braden, probably the thing I’m looking forward to the most, will share his personal health and fitness journey with the group. (It’s really good!) Tribe coach, Lyndzey, will give you the breakdown on Eat to Perform. Everyone in the gym should fit into one of these categories. 

It will cost you $20 to participate in the Nutrition Challenge itself. The talk is free and open to any member officially signed up or just wanting to learn more along with friends and family that might be doing the challenge with you. So, let’s clean up our plates, prepare for PRs and head into Spring looking the part.
