Fall Habits Challenge
Fall Habits Challenge is Coming!
Summer was fun. Schedules got wonky. Routines went out the window. And that's OK! Now it's time to get back to the habits that make you feel your best and build a strong foundation before the cold & dark of winter take over!
The Fall Habits Challenge will run from October 5th - November 15th. It’s a perfect opportunity to rediscover a habit that may have fallen by the wayside or create a brand-new one. Your coach will work with you to identify your goals and one habit you want to focus on over the 6 weeks. And it can be ANYTHING that supports your wellness. Maybe you want to:
Eat more vegetables
Drink more water
Prioritize a consistent bedtime
Get outside for a daily walk
Practice mindfulness
Spend less time on your phone
Prioritize protein
Make more time for yourself
And because we're GLP, we're obviously making it fun! The challenge will include:
Weekly leaderboard to see how you're doing
Bonus point opportunities for our extra-competitive GLPeeps
Surprise challenges to keep things spicy
Community support because we're all in this together
And yes… there will be prizes!

Shoulder Mobility & Stability Workshop
Join us on Wednesday, October 7th at 6:30pm as we host Dr. Megan Davis, Physical Therapist from MoveLab Physical Therapy and Sports Performance, to learn more about the shoulder. She will cover shoulder anatomy and biomechanics, common shoulder injuries, and interactive testing to help you determine if your shoulder needs mobility or stability, or if it's overall healthy.

Core & Pelvic Floor Workshop
*GLP Members Only*
Join us for a practical, hands-on workshop designed and led by Dr. Leshelle of Rooted Physiotherapy and your GLP Head Coach Kari, to help you understand, connect with, and properly recruit your core and pelvic floor, especially during heavy lifts.
If you’ve ever felt unsure about how to hold tension in your core or are curious how to lift heavier without creating pressure or discomfort, this session is for you.
Together, we’ll explore:
How the core + pelvic floor actually work, and how they support strength, stability, and power
What optimal recruitment looks and feels like during squats, deadlifts, overhead movements, and more
How to coordinate breath, bracing, and pelvic floor engagement since your pelvic floor is inseparable from the rest of your body.
Common dysfunction patterns (bearing down, over-tightening, breath holding) and if/when to seek treatment.
Practical application under load—we’ll practice strategies you can start using immediately in your training at GLP!
The first half of the workshop will be an interactive talk. In the second half of the workshop, you will get moving and perform some of the typical lifts that you do as part of your workout here at The GLP. Dr. Leshelle will be there to perform movement analysis, answer any questions, and provide guidance on adjustments that could be made to improve your pelvic health.
This workshop is open to anybody who has a pelvic floor - this includes men, and women who have not had children. Even if you don’t have pelvic floor symptoms you can still benefit from understanding this central area of your body!
Cost: $30
Space is limited to 8 GLP members.
