Subject: Back to Basics

Hi Friend!



Happy December to you!



I don't know about you, but life is sure feeling blessed and full right now.  So many wonderful opportunities with the holiday celebrations as well as wrapping up the year, preparing for the new year and maintaining status quo.  If we can't have more hours in the day, how about cloning ourselves?  Maybe that'd work (wink).  



I imagine many people's lives are feeling quite blessed and full too, and one thing to remember, go back to, hold onto and seek out are the basics.  


When life is full on both ends and you're saying yes more often than usual, you still need these basics.
  • sleep, naps, sleep schedules and bed time routines
  • water
  • scheduled meal times
  • food
  • greens
  • movement
  • stretching
  • sweating
  • breathing
  • grounding
  • take out the trash
  • pay the bills
  • groceries
  • tidying
  • laundry
  • water the plants
  • showing up
  • boundaries


You don't want to miss opportunities and you don't want to get sick.  You've alway gotta check in with yourself and check your current status.  Sometimes Vivi's going so fast or is so stimulated she doesn't realize she's hungry or tired, but we can see it.  The same happens with us.  Sometimes we're going so fast and saying yes so much that we don't realize we're hungry, tired, tight, stressed, etc...



That's when checking in, going back to and staying true to the basics is most needed.  Come January, life won't feel as full and hectic and of course you can start fresh then, but its so much more fun to reflect and goal set when you're healthy and filled up with goodness vs. sick and depleted.  



Enjoy the special moments AND hold tight to the Basics.  



Your coach, 


Mike Alves



p.s.  here's the 2019 Training Schedule for easy reference.  We've added 6 weeks of training to build greater momentum throughout the year while strategically holding onto common weeks off and adding holidays off, to manage recovery and keep overtraining low.


p.p.s.  at some point you're going to think about 2019 and if prioritizing your health and self-care is near the top of the list, here are 3 ways I may be able to help you.  




1.  Group Personal Training:  want a coach who cares, awesome people to train with, a results-oriented program to follow and a high energy place to get filled up, then this is for you.  Reply with "CYBBC" in the subject when you're ready to be a guest and/or try us out.



2.  Private Training.  Some people prefer the convenience and privacy of 1-on-1 training.  They thrive with the individualized attention and the personalized programming and know recurring appointments is the way to guarantee their success.  I have afternoon availability on M / W / F for 1 person and occasional openings at 7:45a, when my other private client is away.  If you're interested and when you're ready, reply with "Private Training" in the subject line and let me know.



3.  Program Design.  Some people like having access to a coach, yet want to train most of the time on their own.  Sometimes they have something specific to work on like a body part, a posture / injury problem or a performance goal, or maybe there's an important event coming up like a reunion, beach vacation, adventure trip or sporting event that they want to get ready for.  

Other times they just want a customized program built around where they are currently, how they move and where they want to go.  The frequency of this could be 1 off, every 3 weeks, 4, 6, 8 or 12 weeks, semi-annually or annually.  

When you're ready to get a custom program, reply with "Program Design" in the subject line to let me know.
