Nutrition Corner- Strong Bones

Got Greens?

Dairy's not the only way to build up your bones. A new study shows that fruit and veggies are high in natural compounds called alkaline potassium salts, which can help neutralize excess acid in the body and reduce calcium loss, potentially slowing bone breakdown. 

Reap the skeletal benefits with as many servings of potassium-rich greens (the darker the better), beets, sweet potatoes, avocados, oranges, and bananas as possible. Please consult our Health Coach, Jessica Wagner to determine what selection is best for your health and wellness plan.


Make Up Requests and Reminders

A reminder that make up slots for group classes are NOT GUARANTEED, but if you plan ahead and complete a make up ticket either online on in the studio, we will do EVERYTHING we can to give you make up options.  We require at least 24 hours notice.

This week and next are good weeks to complete make ups earl--while you have several chances of getting into a class--as the semester progresses make ups are a little tougher. THEME:  PLAN AHEAD WHEN YOU CAN!

Thought Of The Week:

Transformation

Research has shown that it takes 31 days of conscious effort to make or break a habit. That means, if one practices something consistently for 31 days, on the 32nd day it does become a habit. Information has been internalised into behavioural change, which is called transformation. Shiv Khera
