Over Half Way DONE!

carriektraining

Onto week 3 with the September Challenge! How is it going. I don't know about you, but I failed the social media challenge day. I literally opened the IG app at 5am on Wednesday....whoops! The Leg Challenge circuit was very hard with weights and moderately hard with bodyweight. That was a good one.


Let's keep the going right into the 20s of this months. CANNOT believe we are inching our way into October. We have some BIG things happening in October that starts with a D and ends with an ISNEY :)


Keep going with the Challenge. Even if you have a couple of "off days". Jump back in with us!


Week 9/18-9/24


Sunday 9/18: do something today that makes you happy or feel good. Maybe it's a nap. Maybe it's a face mask and bubble bath. Pick something and go for it.


Monday 9/19: Sugar Monster day >:) Do you punctuate lunch AND dinner with a sweet nibble?? Or maybe that sweet nibble turns into a full serving (or 2) after dinner?? What would happen if you subbed out a sweet bite for fruit today? Let's try some berries, grapes, or even apple slices after a meal instead of chocolate or something with added sugar.

Wednesday 9/21 Let's decorate for Fall! Do something cozy today! Light a candle while you enjoy your morning coffee. Grab a pumpkin at the grocery store and out it in the porch. Do something festive to brighten your day.


Thursday 9/22 Can you throw in 50 air squats or 50 jump squats to the finish of your workout today?! Get it done!


Friday 9/23 Shoulder Boulders!

Saturday 9/24. Can you add on 100 lateral lunges to your workout today?! my favorite lunge. no need to add weight. You can do 50 on one side or alternate for the 100.
