- Fixing your fitness mentality
- Prioritizing meal planning
- Actions you can take to prioritize a healthy lifestyle
- Setting intentions and so much more!
On top of all the fun and knowledge, we also have gift card prizes for our first ($100), second ($50) and third ($25) place winners. Everyone who participates in the challenge will receive a 2023 EB Fitness Partner Challenge t-shirt designed by one of our trainers, Katie Perkins.
If you have any questions, the fitness center staff would be thrilled to chat with you about your goals at any time.
