Message from the Coach
Can you believe it’s fall already? This year has been flying by. I didn’t enjoy all the rain we got this summer, but I am loving the color it produced in the leaves this fall! I’ve experienced several summers with drought-like conditions, and I can tell you it results in a very short and drab fall. I was able to spend a Friday hiking at Grayson Highlands recently, and it was absolutely gorgeous! Want to see more photos from my adventure? They are posted on my blog. It was my first solo hike in over 4 years, and I really enjoyed wandering around on my own and taking lots of photos.

These are great as a breakfast with greek yogurt, or as a grab-and-go snack! Delicious hot or cold.

Workout with FitbyMik
30 minute dumbbell sculpt workout
I’ve been doing some of FitbyMik’s workouts on YouTube lately, this one is great! It will work your whole body and was a bit of a challenge for me to complete.
Cardio Tip of the Month
The weather is getting colder! Don’t forget to warm up before any kind of strenuous activity to ensure that your muscles are ready!

Instagram Account : @deconstructingpurityculture
This account resonates with me as it covers a lot of issues/lies I internalized growing up, and calls out many toxic messages that are still rampant in our society today. It’s very validating if this is something you experienced, and eye-opening if it’s not.
