One of our members @Keith Lopez shared this awesome photo of their Michael Dean Fitness water bottle, and I thought it was too cool not to share 😎🏔️ I love seeing our community taking healthy habits with them wherever life takes them - whether that’s the gym, the office, or halfway up a mountain. Now I’m curious… Where has everyone traveled this summer? 🌎 Drop a photo or tell us where you’ve been! I’d love to see where The Movement Lab has been represented this year.

If anyone’s interested, the new issue of Consumer Reports Sept/Oct 2026, tests and ranks protein supplements. Muscle Tech’s Mass Gainer is top ranked. The full protein update is an interesting read describing testing, results, and how makers address concerns of heavy metal intake.

Unfortunately, my stomach has decided to create its own high-intensity workout ☣️🤢, so I won’t be able to lead tonight’s HIIT session. We’re rescheduling for next Tuesday, August 11. Sorry for the change, and thanks for understanding! Stay healthy- and I’ll see you next week, when hopefully the only thing feeling the burn will be our muscles. 🔥💪

It’s only 3pm. And I washed my macros down the drain and hit my calories too early. Woof. I have been ignoring the recipes and meal plan long enough. I just had Claude fill my wal mart cart with the ingredients to make it happen. First Sunday meal prep ever tomorrow. Wish me luck.
