SETTING YOU UP FOR Q1 2026
As the holidays roll in, it’s easy to slip into the “I’ll start fresh in January” mindset. Between parties, travel, and colder weather, consistency can feel harder to maintain — and before you know it, the new year arrives, and you’re trying to rebuild momentum from scratch. December doesn’t have to be a setback. Instead, it can be a strategic setup to feeling ready to tackle the pressure of the new year. Here’s what you can focus on this holiday season to set yourself up for a strong start to 2026.
WINTER-PROOF YOUR STRENGTH & MOBILITY
As we move into the winter months, the colder weather and darker days often bring more time indoors and a lot more sitting. When the days get shorter, our activity levels tend to drop. More sitting (and scrolling) means tight hips, rounded shoulders, and sluggish posture. Between colder temps, holiday travel, and seasonal routines shifting, it’s easy for stiffness, fatigue, and aches to sneak in.
We know that moving well is the foundation of feeling strong, whether you’re snatching a barbell, chasing your kids or dogs, or just getting through a long workday without tight hips or sore shoulders. So how do we combat this? Add in some more mobility throughout your day.
