Write the Plan, Work the Plan

Sometimes, the best intentions get run over by other (seeming) priorities. And if we're being honest, excuses.
{No judgement! We’re right there with you! }

"AND THEN ONE DAY you wake up and you're 20 pounds heavier because it was raining." Muhamed Ali said that.

One thing I'm certain of is that progress in anything starts with a solid plan. And if you're going to complete the plan, you're GOING TO NEED A COACH (or a good project manager 😉)

LUCKY FOR US we have a Coach dedicated to doing just that! And thanks to Covid-19, we're working with a new training app that lets her create workouts and nutrition plans specifically for each individual (complete with video and form instructions) with relative ease! And we can communicate quickly back and forth with you through the app as well.

IMAGINE! A plan that's detailed to your specific goals, and a human to ask questions along the way and share VIRTUAL HIGH 5's with you as you check off your planned workout for the day 🤩🤩

THEN share your progress with your AMAZING Delta Wellness Groupies on our private FB page and get millions more VIRTUAL HIGH-5'S 🙌👊💪🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️

Taking a Social Media Fast for Lent?

We get it. Social Media can become overwhelming when not well-controlled. We like to believe our private wellness FaceBook page {ProMotion Delta Faucet Wellness Initiative} is the happiest place on FaceBook. Yet we do respect your decision to take a break. Do make sure to stay connected to your community in person and via email if needed. Our strong supportive community is pretty special!

We’ve been asked if it is still possible to make the needed points for the #myworkoutiseverywhere vacation incentive. Of course it is! We’ve got you covered. Below lists all of your bonus point options. No need to send us photos or reports via email. We spend our time on the fitness floor and in classes helping people, emailing minimally.

Wellness Vacation Point Earning FAQs

Question: Can I still earn up to four days off if I take a break from Facebook?

Answer: Yes.

The incentive program is very flexible so you can absolutely earn up to 4 days off (with 360 points) even without being on Facebook. Here's how if you were to annualize non-FB points:

·       Class/OYO points: 1 point X 365 days = 365 points.

Earn more if you do a class and also exercise a 2nd time on your own each day.

·       3 free coaching appointments: Each worth 5 points = 15 points

·       Annual physical: 5 points

·       Tuesday Blood Pressure checks: 1 point X 52 weeks = 52 points

·       Bi-weekly challenge participation: 2 points X 26 weeks = 52 points

5 points for each challenge you win.

·       Massage: 1 point X 10 months = 10 points

·       New member referral listed on his/her enrollment form: 10 points

·       Participant in company-sponsored Run 317 races and the 24 Foundation ride: 3 points

These activities, without Facebook, will still total approximately 500 points which gives you a lot of opportunity and flexibility. Connect with an onsite ProMotion coach if you need additional help navigating your point earning potential.

You should be able to earn 4 days no problem!

Mindfulness Challenge #1 for Valentines Day - #breathandposture

In 2019 we all engaged in a 30 day Digital Detox, wherein many lets just say, didn’t do so well. We realized at that point that perhaps a year in foundational mindfulness practices might be in order. So here you go. Our #1, our favorite, our hands-down GO-TO mindfulness meditation. Are you ready?

In his book, Total Body Transformation, Coach Steve Ilg writes about his four lifestyle principles, “Throughout this book, various (and often peculiar) assignments are given to deepen your understanding of my Four Lifestyle Principles. The function of these principles is to connect your fitness training into your daily life. Please start becoming aware of them.” He then adds,

“How we do anything, is how we do everything.”

“I think that Breath and Posture awareness is the most overlooked form of fitness, performance, and healthcare. Let me explain… “ [Total Body Transformation, by Steve Ilg]

And so, for the next 30 days (from February 14 through March 14), set a timer to go off once per hour. Coach called this exercise The Beeper Guru. When your timer goes off, check your breath and your posture. Take a quick reset if needed. Plant your feet on the ground, pull yourself out of any habitual places of slouch and take 1-3 full inhales and exhales (extend the exhale if you’re feeling a little stressed). Then? Carry on.

At the end of the day, share your results or any other thoughts and inspirations (pun intended) on our private FaceBook page [ProMotion Delta Faucet Wellness Initiative] and include #breathandposturedfc. You can double-dip (2 points) the post by adding #myworkoutiseverywhere if you bring breath and posture awareness during your workout.

Curious about how to improve your breath and posture awareness? Visit us in any yoga, pilates, momcore or functional fitness class this week!
