Hi Fam!
I’m in the middle of a very busy week so I’m keeping it brief. So proud of all of you and the amazing growth everyone is mentioning. I’m happy that I finished 45 workouts during the challenge, which was my goal! Now I plan to start from 30 minute workout #1 and move through the 30 minute workouts sequentially. It will give me structure! Alright. Good night!
Photos to go with post below! :)
So stoked to see all your challenge boards and hear your stories! I completed 60/60 workouts and 50/60 wellness challenges. I pushed myself in ways I didn’t think was possible through a very stressful time at work and came out the other end stronger and more confident. I even did the push ups on my toes today and just feel amazing (even though I have a cold). I think one of the most rewarding parts of the challenge was connecting with all of you - I am so grateful for the support of this community- it is hard to put into words.
I don’t know how I coped with life before M/body - this platform has truly changed my life. I went from being in chronic pain and going to weekly physiotherapy to being pain free. I went from being in constant stress maxed out adrenal not sleeping mode to actually being able to rest, prioritize and focus on myself and family. It’s not (all) about the weight, but I have dropped 30 pounds (over 5 months). And I feel strong - I did push ups on my toes!
I am a little sad the challenge is over but so happy to have made this connection with all of you. Congratulations to everyone!!
Wow!!! I can’t believe how fast 60 days flew by!!! Congratulations everyone on their workout journey! My goal was to hit all 60, aim for the stars, right?! I completed 38 and am proud of every workout! Can’t wait for the next challenge 👊🏻 xoxo!
This was my first M/BODY Challenge and felt like the perfect way to dive deep into these workouts, the affirmations/meditations, and connect w/ this beautiful community of support. I posted a long AF love letter about it on Instagram, but I am proud of observing physical improvements (in form, endurance, and some flexibility) and mental shifts (more playful & curious and less frustrated & impatient with my journey). Embracing not numbing out and progress not perfection. Grateful for this experience, and so proud of anyone who makes the choice to show up at the mat or honors the message to do something else, like rest, when that is needed.
I cannot believe we are finished! I'm happy and sad at the same time because I had so much damn fun!! 🙃 I think I was more grounded and focused during this challenge!! Totally ready for the next!! Great job 👏 everyone!!
We freaking did it everyone!! Congrats to everyone to did any amount of the challenge! This was so fun, can’t wait for the next one and to celebrate at tomorrows live! Sending love to all! Special shout out to all my fellow teachers and other credentialed school staff, happy teacher appreciation week xoxo ❤️
Congrats to all of you warriors! I absolutely loved this challenge and I’m so proud of all of us. And my absolute favorite part of challenge #5 was getting to meet Dani C in Paris and bring her M/ovement balls to her! I love this fam so much
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Surprise surprise, being kind and gentle with oneself works really well hehe! Instead of pushing for 60 (all or nothing) I allowed myself to set the goal of 30 workouts for this challenge. Lo and behold, I did 45 in the end!
My favourite part of these challenges is redoing workouts that I don’t tend to do in my regular routine. Or just miss (because we now have this gorgeous catalogue of over 180 workouts!).
My two new faves are:
barre sweat 156. I struggle with the positioning of my legs, hips and arms at the bar when we do leg work so I hope to redo this one to work on that.
Signature 00s themed 147. I LOVED the glute work in this one, typically done on all fours, we did on our knees while holding the bar. (I do hope I’m describing this properly). My shoulders LOVED that and I loved it. Also managed the two sets of four sets of 8 jumps!
Sorry for the loooooong post. Congratulations to my fellow fam for the completion of your personal challenge!!!!
Love to you all. Xx
Done! This time it was a bit more of a struggle to fit in 60 workouts. Life has opened back up with kids needing to be here, there, and everywhere; coupled with traveling more, I often did 2 workouts in a day to make up for missing days. But no matter what, I never finished a workout wishing I hadn’t spent that time doing exactly that. Thanks fam for inspiring and motivating me!
