Friday, September 26^th

• Breakfast
• Head to a local gym
• Coach Keith -Building Muscle vs. Lifting Weights
  • All our lives we have heard you have to "lift weights" or "Let’s go lift some weights", but should we really be so concerned about lifting weights? Is it really beneficial for us?  Keith will discuss his changed philosophy and teach you through interactive exercises why you should be more focused on "Building muscle" and less focused on "Lifting weights" to help build lean muscle mass, increase your flexibility, and train to prevent injuries from happening. 
  • Workout with your 1fw Coaches at a local gym
  • Lunch
  • Coach Michelle:  Drop the fat and keep the Muscle - Dump the Scale
    • Why do we culturally obsess over a number on the scale?  Our bodies are all constructed differently, shaped differently, and trained differently, yet we worry about fitting into a societal preconceived number that tells us if we are healthy?  Heath does not come from hitting a magical number.  Health comes from living a full and fit life! Michelle will be talking about why slow movement on the scale is not a reflection of success and why dropping the fat and adding the muscle does not always mean change on the scale.
    • Free Time
    • Dinner

Saturday, September 27^th

• Breakfast
• Coach Michelle: Balance and Living a Full and Fit Life
  • Living a full and fit life requires balance.  It's not about living in the gym or obsessing over food all the time.  Fitness should be part of who you are, and once you educate yourself on living a fit life than the balance should come naturally.  Michelle will be giving an interactive workshop on how to find balance in your fit lifestyle.
