Challenge | 2020 Mini Challenge 2

You know what’s a real challenge? Anything that YOU find challenging.

I know that’s pretty obvious when I say it like that, but sometimes I think we forget that there’s no minimum standard or universally agreed-upon definition of what a “challenge” is.

Whatever challenges YOU is challenging.

So choose your challenge appropriately!

Need help? Well, that’s why the Mini Challenge exists – it’s seven days of workouts designed to help YOU challenge yourself in whatever way feels challenging to you.

How the Mini Challenge works:

• Choose a GOAL – weight loss or body shaping (best for weight maintenance)
• Follow the WORKOUTS for your goal – if you’re losing weight, each day’s effort should feel very moderate and consistent; if you’re shaping your body, one day should be an intense push (you choose which workout, any of them can be intense!), one or two days should be very relaxed and the rest of the days should feel mild to moderate. Changing your intensity is what changes your body.
• Mindset Matters is a weekly podcast that you can enjoy any time – during a workout, on your commute, while grocery shopping, etc.
• The Wildcard Bonus is a fun and interesting older workout that is meant to really push your limits (not usually suitable for weight loss Bs, but great for body shaping Bs!)
