So lovely, thank you!

Faith Kelly aww sweet girl, thank you!!

I meant to add that generally the recommendation for a snack before an early workout is a balance of carbs and protein. Banana and pb, a few dates and pb. Something easily digested so your body can access the fuel and nutrients for energy and you don’t feel weighed down and crampy.

Hi Fanni! I would recommend experimenting with different things to see how YOU feel. There is no formula (boo to that!) as we are all individuals and each day our bodies are different and have varying needs. Water is always a must before a workout, for any human I’d say as there is nothing like dehydration to make you feel fatigue. But the other things - whether to have a snack, sip some coffee or tea is based on your body. And some bodies don’t need early morning food and some do (mine often does). Some are prone to stomach cramps or nausea and some this happens with food, and some if they don’t have food. For me, some days I have a small snack at 5:30 am (my instincts say it will help with energy, and it does, especially if I had a smaller amount of food the night before) and some days I don’t. Most days I have a small amount of coffee before an early morning workout (like a few shots worth of cold coffee I make and keep in the fridge ready to go with creamer already mixed in).

Hi Jenna! That’s the best feeling! I imagine it’s especially amazing when you’re dealing with chronic pain and other symptoms.

I’m not sure if you are new or just posting for the first time (if you are new welcome! If you’re not, hi!), but in general the healing hips classes may help on those days you are seeking hip/pelvic area relief and supportive movement. They are gentle, calming, and also energizing in the calming if that makes sense? Wishing you classes that bring you relief!

Stephanie Friel you gorgeous creature, thank you for the shoutout! I am a bit meticulous with my notes 🤓 hehe

I love this Julie! I’ve kept a notebook to make class notes in, but would LOVE to be able to make notes to myself for classes in the app.

Hi Emily! I didn’t respond to this when I first read it because there are too many good 30s for me to narrow down and I hit decision fatigue just recommending 😂 If you’re looking for an excellent full body with weights FB Sweat/305 is a fave of mine.

Let me know if there is a vibe (cardio/energy, grounding floor, badass ballerina, arm focus, full body) you are looking for and I’ll send more tailored recs!

I am obsessed with all of the new choreo in January classes and this gem was full of them 🤩 My brain and body thank you, Marnie!!
