September is here, and it’s the perfect time to reset, recharge, and get back into your routine after the whirlwind of the holidays. That’s why I’m so excited to invite you to my Back to School Challenge—a 7-day journey designed to help you ease back into your fitness routine with just 20 minutes a day. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just getting started, this challenge is for you!
Here are my top 10 tips to make the most of this challenge and set yourself up for success:
1. Set Clear Intentions 🌟
Before you dive in, take a moment to set your intentions. What do you want to achieve by the end of these 7 days? Whether it’s boosting your energy, improving your flexibility, or simply getting back into a consistent routine, having a clear goal will keep you motivated.
2. Create a Dedicated Space 🧘♀️
Carve out a little space at home where you can move freely. It doesn’t need to be big—just a spot where you can stretch, flow, and focus without distractions. This will help you get into the right mindset every time you press play.
3. Schedule Your Workouts 🗓️
Treat your 20-minute sessions like important meetings. Block out time in your calendar, whether it’s first thing in the morning or a midday break. Consistency is key, and having a set time makes it easier to stick with it.
4. Stay Hydrated 💧
It’s easy to forget, but staying hydrated is crucial, especially when you’re moving your body every day. Keep a water bottle nearby and sip throughout the day to keep your energy levels up.
5. Embrace Variety 🌈
One of the best things about this challenge is the variety—yoga, pilates, cardio, barre, and more! Each day brings something new, so embrace the mix and enjoy the opportunity to try different styles. It’s a fantastic way to keep things fresh and fun!
6. Listen to Your Body 🧘♂️
This challenge is for all levels: beginners will be able to take it easy, and avanced Squad members will be able to make it more intense. For this challenge, the goal is to move and feel good, not to push yourself to the brink. Take breaks, rest when you need to, and celebrate every step forward.
7. Connect with the Community 🤗
You’re not in this alone! Join “The Squad” WhatsApp group to share your journey, swap tips, and stay motivated. Connecting with others who are on the same path can make all the difference and keep you accountable. (Members will receive a link to the group when the challenge starts)
8. Celebrate Small Wins 🎉
Every day you complete a workout is a win—so celebrate it! Whether it’s a post-workout stretch, a healthy snack, or a moment of gratitude, acknowledging your progress will keep you motivated throughout the week.
9. Prepare Your Gear Ahead of Time 👟
Lay out your workout clothes, yoga mat, and any equipment you need the night before. This simple step eliminates excuses and makes it easier to jump right into your workout without hesitation.
10. Keep the Momentum Going 🚀
The Back to School Challenge is just the beginning. Use this week to kickstart your routine, and let the momentum carry you forward. By the end of the 7 days, you’ll be feeling stronger, more energized, and ready to take on whatever comes next!
The Back to School Challenge is more than just 7 workouts—it’s a way to reset, refocus, and reclaim your routine after the holidays.
