We are quickly closing in on the end of 2021. Dare I say it has flown by? Not without its challenges, but you all are resilient, hard-working people who keep your eyes on the end of the tunnel. Keep going, the turning point is near!

We are approaching the end of our fundraising drive for the York Community Service Association but there is still plenty of time to contribute! We’re looking for gift cards of any value to any food, gas and essentials store. We will be collecting the gift certificates all the way up until Thursday, Dec. 23, of which we will pass them along to our amazing Legends ladies who will get them where they need to go. Simply place your gift certificate (of ANY amount!) in the cards near the tree and attach the card to the tree. THANK YOU to so many of you who have already donated! It sure is a wonderful gift to give back to those in our small town.

As we approach the new year, we are planning on kicking off 2022 with a Nutrition re-set. So many of you LOVED the #800gChallenge when we completed in a few years ago, so we thought we’d bring it back! This program will be entirely completed through SugarWOD. The goal is to eat MORE, and formally eliminate nothing. Now, by proxy of having to eat more of the good stuff, you might find you have less room for the bad stuff, but hey, we won’t say that’s by design ;). You can read more about it here.

Our in-house Nutrition expert, Alyssa, will be the Gym Lead for this challenge, but the overarching goal is to eat 800 grams, by weight, of fruits and veggies each day. This 4-week challenge focuses on setting a minimum standard of fruits and veggies in the diet without requiring ANY eliminations. This is a great challenge to do with your family, coworkers or even friends to help jumpstart your healthy eating habits for 2022. All we ask is that you commit $5 to Mason jar pot for your “personal” accountability. The Mason jar pot will be awarded to the winner with the most points at the end of the challenge: Beware, Andrew doesn’t mess around in these things, so you might have to devise a plan…

Things you want to know:

  • Who’s ready for Bootcamp upscaled with Joe Things? We are hoping to change two or three morning class times to Bootcamp offerings starting January 3! DM us if you have someone who would be interested in joining us on a punch pass basis two to three days per week? This class would be long, sweaty workouts with an emphasis of movement without the barbell. Joe would incorporate some of his prehab/rehab things as an added strength portion to round out the program. Stay tuned on which classes we will roll this out! Punch passes will run $100 for 5 or $180 for 10. Recurring members will have full access to these class offerings with no additional charge.
  • Christmas Schedule: Dec. 23 will be our Annual 12 Days of Christmas workout. Be sure to plan ahead! Dec. 24 will be AM classes only but as normal (finishing with 8:30am class); Saturday, Dec. 25 we are closed. Dec. 26 will be as normal with Coach Brit!

If you’d like to lend a helping hand to do some secret mission Gym OPS, please reply to this email and let me know when you’re available that week! The official announcement regarding this special project is coming Dec. 27, in our last email of the year.
