Happy Monday! I’m so excited to share a challenge I’m helping to head up, sponsored byΒ BOSU with the support of FitApproach.Β For the next 4 weeks, join in on Instagram, Twitter, or wherever you’d like to share and be part ofΒ theΒ #BosuStrong #FitFamily 4 Week Challenge!Β Join BOSU and Sweat Pink for four strong weeks of BOSU fitness, starting today, September 14 and ending Friday,Β October 9.
Now, this part is important, because I know you’re wondering how you can take part if you don’t have a BOSU. You don’t need one!Β You can join the challenge whether or not you have access to working out with a BOSU. And the bestΒ partΒ is just by participating youΒ have a chance to win one. (WOO HOO!!)
The first week of the challenge coincides with our family’s big interstate move to Vermont…so guess what, my lovelies? If I can fit in these daily challenges, with two littles, a lot of boxes and about to move to a whole different part of the country, then I KNOW you can join in, too!
How to Participate in the #BosuStrong Challenge:
All you have to do is answer the daily prompts on your blog, Instagram, Twitter or wherever else you want to share and hashtag #BosuStrong #FitFamily #sweatpink.Β Tag @BOSU_Fitness (Instagram) @BOSUFitness (Twitter) andΒ @FitApproach.
5 Things That Make Me #BOSUStrong
Being #BOSUSTRONG means I make fitness part of my everyday life, at home, out and about, and with my friends and family.
I will squat, mountain climb, plank, push-up, lunge, Β balanceΒ and challenge myselfΒ on my way to a stronger and centeredΒ body. Β And I will encourage my blogger friends Brittany and Christine to join me on this fun journey because we are one big, happy #FitFamily.
Being #BOSUStrong is not just about movement, sweat, or even owning a BOSU, its about being a leader, an inspiration to others, and sharing my own fitness journey with others. Itβs about not letting the pressure of life, moving and change, or however crazy I might be about my postpartum bodyΒ stand in my way of sweating and getting strong! The 5 things that make me #BOSUStrong are:
- My strong drive to work hard at fitness
- My ability to motivate others
- My love for moving my body
- My healthy attitude toΒ balancing fitness and life
- And my sense of humor about my fitness journey
So I want to know – are you #BOSUStrong? Copy and paste the above, fill it in and make it your own and then tag me in it and share with your friends! Letβs all be #BOSUSTRONG.
The daily prompts are below. You can also follow along HERE.

Disclaimer: this post was sponsored by BOSU but all opinions expressed are my own. I truly appreciate all of the brands that support the Fit Approach (Sweat Pink) community.
I have a bunch of fun posts lined up for you this week and it IS moving week so please lend me some support and send me some positive vibes/pray/good juju/whatever you believe in for our SIX HOUR car ride with two cats, a toddler and a baby to Vermont this week! (All the while assuming our moving truck is close behind us!).
Holy moly guacamole, if I get through this week relatively unscathed I will be majorly proud of my BOSU Strength! (And in need of a drink, I’m sure!).
Help keep my spirits up by joining in this awesome challenge!Β
Love you guys! xoxo
HOORAY for the challenge! Hope your car ride and move go off without a hitch!
