Every day — delivered straight to your email — you’ll get a follow-along workout with CrossFit athlete and fitness influencer Jordan Shalhoub, a creative and healthy recipe to try, motivational memes and playlists to keep you going and plenty of tips and advice on everything from dealing with muscle soreness to eating healthy at restaurants (and everything in between).

How Does This Challenge Work?

Once you’ve signed up for the challenge, keep an eye on your inbox for the day’s plan. Everything you need will be linked in one convenient place — no need to bookmark or track down anything. In general, though, you’ll have one workout you can do each day. The schedule is as follows:

Day 1: Resistance Band Booty Workout Day 2: Jump Rope Cardio + Body-Weight Strength Workout Day 3: Plyo Box Leg-Day Workout Day 4: Active Recovery Workout Day 5: Rest Day! Day 6: Full-Body Dumbbell Workout Day 7: Medicine Ball Cardio + Abs Workout

 *NOTE: Whatever day you start on is day 1, so you'll start with the resistance band booty workout. Once you reach day 8, start over with the workouts and repeat this order of workouts for the entire challenge.

Plus, each week you’ll have a different healthy eating goal (see below for each week’s goal), and every day, you’ll get a recipe tailored to that goal to make reaching it even easier! Want a sneak peek of what each day’s challenge will bring? Here are the links to all the motivational articles you’ll get each day.

2. Print Out Your Calendars

Isn’t it so satisfying to check things off of your to-do list? Each day during the Get Strong in 2019 Challenge, you’re accountable for two main things: working out and eating healthy.
