21 Days of Healthy Eating
VIRTUAL
Healthy eating: is more than a list of things to eat or avoid – it’s a pattern that contributes to a positive relationship with food. Feeding our bodies the fuel and nutrients that we need to sustain life. When we consume the wrong fuel, or not enough of the right fuel, our bodies struggle to keep us going, and we don’t feel our best. In our program, participants are educated on ingredients, making smoothies, and healthy snacks to discover good food choices that will become an every day lifestyle. 3 smoothies a day for 21 days: (3-21)

The emphasis is on strengthening the hips and quadriceps at appropriate hip angles; meaning that while she could squat deeper, we are attempting to stay away from these absolute end ranges.
