As you may know, our newest challenge is starting on October 5th, #LevelUp45.

Over the next few weeks, your coaches are going to be sharing with you some AMAZING strategies to help you be successful with the challenge.

The goal with #LevelUp45 is to help you create and reinforce habits relating to your exercise, nutrition, mindset and recovery.

The challenge was designed to be hard. It’s not easy to commit to doing something everyday for 45 days, let alone 5 things for 45 days.

You’re going to struggle at times.

You’re going to want to go back to the habits or ways you were doing things before.

You may want to quit.

And that’s ok to feel like that, that’s how we operate as human beings!

The reality is, many of us have one of these components dialed in. You may workout 7 days a week, or you may track your nutrition every day or you may not have an issue getting 8 hours of sleep every night.

But I’m confident you aren’t dialed into all of the components.

If you are, awesome! You’re an outlier. You basically have crushed all of your fitness goals.

So what’s next for you? Maybe there are things you can add to your current routine to help you #LevelUp?

Our fitness will never improve as rapidly as we want if we only dialed into one element. The truth is we need to be dialed into consistent habits and routines that impact all of the elements of our wellness.

I call this the Entourage Effect of Fitness.

The Entourage Effect of Fitness refers to all of the components that impact your health (exercise, nutrition, mindset, recovery, etc) in a positive way, working together to produce a greater effect than working in isolation.

Think of this as a team. A high school basketball team would beat the best basketball player on the planet 10 times out of 10.

Can you improve your overall health by just moving more or exercising more?
Sure!

Can you improve your overall health by following a specific nutrition plan and not drinking alcohol?
Of course!

Can you improve your overall health by practicing better recovery strategies, such as sleeping 7-8 hours or not staring at your phone screen before bed?
Yes!

If you’re still reading, it sounds like you want to win the game faster. You’re tired of getting in your own way. You want a plan and strategies to help you reach your goals.

Tim has been an incredible part of our community — always positive, funny, generous, and willing to help. His energy makes everyone around him better. Prototype of the Month is well deserved! Below he answers some questions about his time at PTS. 1.) Share your experience at Prototype This actually isn’t my first stint at Prototype - I’ve been around and worked out here a few times in my heyday. My very first legitimate class though, as a member, was 5am earlier this year and I was welcomed first by Nicole. You can all imagine how that interaction went… and I came back! Prototype is welcoming, fun, clean, and I’ve made amazing friends along the way. It is one of the best hours of my day. 2.) What is your favorite part about being at Prototype? Prototype is not just another workout but a mental reset for me, it fills my cup. 3.) What are your hobbies and activities? Activities mostly involve time with my family outside whenever we can, trips to Ptown and traveling all over for work. I have a hard time sitting still and typically keep a busy schedule. Mix in photography and interior design opportunities with fitness and family and I’d say that's my perfect mix. 4.) How has Prototype helped you or solved a problem for you? I work remotely so in person face to face conversation is something I’ve found I need for my mental health. I’m also super competitive so I tend to push a little harder when I workout with others. 5.) What are you continuing fitness goals to this point? I want to be a parent who can show up for their kids in every aspect of life, which also means physically. Staying fit is important to be able to keep up with them as we collectively get older. I am training for a few Hyrox races coming up but mostly just trying to maintain my current level of fitness for as long as possible. 6.)
