Athlete Entry & Exit[/gdlr_button] WE ARE CURRENTLY IN: PHASE 5 As a health & fitness community we are dedicated to the wellbeing of our athletes, coaches, and loved ones. This document lays out the framework for reopening physical operations following government guidelines and real-time scientific research. The time frame on transitioning between phases is unclear, but we will use our local government’s framework as a guide. These phases are of course fluid and will adjust as needed as more information is available. Following the lead of Chicago’s Reopening Framework: PHASES PHASE 1 & 2: STRICT REMOTE GAINZ (March 16, 2020 – June 7, 2020) – Bluprint does it’s part to limit unnecessary contact with others and conducts a coaching program 100%...

Since you have been chilling at home with you, yourself, and your boredom have you found yourself walking aimlessly to the pantry? What used to be a weekend thing has become a Monday-Tuesday-Wednesday-Thursday-Friday-Saturday-Sunday thing and you find yourself snacking all the doo-dah-day. Are you actually hungry or are you just plain bored?  This is a serious question because there are definitely times when I am truly hungry because I pushed my meals too far apart aka waited too long OR under-ate throughout the day because I am on this “cool-new-eating-too-little-calorie-diet” and now I am willing to eat anything I can get my hands on. There is something about being over-the-edge hungry that turns into hanger that turns into not caring what it is or how much it is that I put into my body. Did you know it takes about 20 minutes for your stomach to tell your brain that...

We have all done it. Finished a workout and completely crushed it – had a plan – followed the plan – things went better than expected – and we are feeling on top of the world…CONFIDENT & PROUD. You go to put your score in Wodify and decide to peek at the Leaderboard just to validate how much you crushed it – and BAM. Everyone crushed the workout too and they crushed it more than you. Automatically your mood shifts from “I am too cool for school” to “wow I did horrible”. That pit builds in your stomach because although you are happy for your buddies you are bummed that you didn’t do nearly as well as you thought. Your confidence comes crashing down and fast.  Is this you once and a while…or is this you ALL the dang time? If this is a once and a while thing, probably...

Building some form of an “at-home gym” (AHG) can help create long-term health & fitness success. Having access and/or a plan at home is an invaluable tool to staying on track. Not only when it’s our only option (insert stay-at-home mandates), but also when we just can’t make it to the gym on any given day. There are infinite ways to create an AHG, but where do we start? What type of equipment should I get? What’s going to give me the most bang for my buck? What’s going to be something I can use for years to come? Well, we’ve put together a four-tier list of Bluprint’s best options to create your AHG. Check it out! NOTE (What ALL Tiers Need): dedicated Space (whether it’s prepared each workout or a mainstay) Minimalist (Tier 1) This tier is all about the lowest barrier to entry and equipping your AHG with...
