Dear TransFit Family,
We are currently in the midst of a historical event! As we have seen, the Coronavirus (COVID-19), has now been formally described as a "pandemic" by the World Health Organization.
At TransFit, your whole-body health and wellness is our top priority. After reviewing all of the current CDC guidelines, we have made the difficult decision to close TransFit this week 3/16/20- 3/22/20.
We will adjust all-access passes and extend all monthly sessions so that we can continue your transformation.
We will have workout videos and meal plans on the website for you. We will update you during the week as to when TransFit will reopen, but please reach out to Caroline or our trainers with any questions or concerns.
We are here to serve you and will be praying for you and your family during this time. Thank you for your understanding.
Do Not Be Discouraged, Have Hope and Trust in God!
If you feel like you are struggling today, we’ve got ways to help you feel alive:
1. Get physical! Numerous studies have shown that exercise boosts mood – so much so that some doctors are advised to prescribe exercise for mild depression instead of medicines.
2. Dance! It’s as easy as turning on Taylor Swift and breaking it down in the privacy of your bedroom. Or turn up the music in your car and pretend like you have tinted windows! Dancing cures the blues in many ways!
3. Yoga or Pilates! Yoga and Pilates are surprisingly rejuvenating! They challenge the body while also communicating with the muscles that they can relax. There is an amazing sense of relaxation that is experienced during the stretching portion, a portion of the class dedicated to silence, reflection, and time to rest your mind and body. You will be surprised how great you feel after.4. Get outside! If you have the chance and the ability to spend time outside in the fresh air, nothing beats the wind in your face! Go hiking; take your run off the treadmill and onto the trails and sidewalks. Stop ignoring your sweet puppy whining at the door and take her or him on a walk! Play tag or hide-and-seek with your kids outside. There are endless ways to get fresh air. Pick one of them, and experience your spirit brighten.

Kale Chips Recipe
Ingredients:
1 bunch of Kale
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions:
Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F. Line a non-insulated cookie sheet with parchment paper or foil.
With a knife or kitchen shears carefully remove the leaves from the thick stems and tear into bite-size pieces. Wash and thoroughly dry kale with a salad spinner. Drizzle kale with olive oil and sprinkle with seasoning salt. (You can massage kale with the olive to coat more evenly).
Bake until the edges brown but are not burnt, check after 10 minutes (shake pan if needed) may need to cook more 5 minutes. ENJOY!
