Most people start the new year off with the very best of intentions, ready to take on their resolutions to be healthier, stronger, fitter, etc. full steam ahead. But somewhere around the third week of January, they just…poop out. No judgement here—we’ve been there. But, we do have a solid plan of action for reaching your goals this year.
Introducing the 90-Day Make It Count Challenge! This is a three-phase challenge in which you pick one of three Health Enthusiasts’ training and nutrition programs that best matches your personal goals. The plans for the month of January have been provided by lifestyle transformation coach Dylan Thomas, who specializes in fat loss, muscle building, and metabolic enhancement.
