A daily dose of quirky wellness news and trends delivered to your inbox

Happy High Noon (EST). We're stoked to bring you our very first newsletter and we're feeling pretty darn good about it. Our goal? To make you feel good for the next 50 years. Imagine one day sitting down with your great-grandkids and saying, "Hey, listen up, Sonny! I was there when Flobody sent out their very first newsletter. It was just alright at the start, but boy, did they figure it out over time!"

Sure, there will be ups and downs, but we're committed to honing our skills and delivering the most exciting wellness news and trends to your inbox every single day.

Alright, now dive into the newsletter and enjoy some good vibes while you're munching on your lunch.

WOW Headlines:

There is a lot going on in the world of wellness (WOW) and it’s impossible to keep up. We searched the internet for interesting content and found our three favorites of the day.

Ready, set, go (insert Mario Kart start sound effect):

Pilates Never Stops

Have you heard about Margot Robbie's workout routine on the Barbie set? She did Pilates four days a week while filming and even squeezed in a 30-minute express workout in her Barbie costume. Pretty impressive, right? She's a true example of dedication.

Plus, she not only acted in the movie but also produced - busy girl.

Add Iowa to your travel bucket list next summer and experience the epic RAGBRAI (Register's Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa), the world's largest and longest recreational ride.

Cruise 500 miles from west to east in just a week. After riding 80 miles daily, cyclists camp out in towns, and some party all night long. The ride will sweat out any hangover, so no need to shower the next morning.

And if you pass by my parents' house, say hi for me 😁

They just wrapped up over the weekend so if this seems interesting, make sure to signup next year.

Can’t Win ‘Em All

The U.S. women's national team narrowly avoided elimination from the 2023 World Cup. This 0-0 draw secured their spot in the round of 16 but people are not happy and don't consider this 2023 team a title contender. We will see.

Whatever happens, they still attract more viewers and have accomplished more than the men. So that's pretty cool.

Did You Know? Like Really Know…

Muscle Growth Magic: Did you know that muscle growth doesn't actually happen while you're breaking down those muscles during your workout sessions? The real gains happen during the recovery phase when your muscles have a chance to repair and grow. So, keep pushing, but remember that the true gains are waiting for you after your sweat session!
Give It a Rest: Recovery is key! Make sure to give your hard-working muscles the downtime they deserve. Aim for a recovery period of 24-48 hours for each muscle group before specifically targeting them again. It's during this time that your muscles get stronger and adapt to the demands you've placed on them. So, go ahead and unwind, nourish your body with the right nutrition, catch some quality zzzs, and let those muscles do their mighty work!

Today’s Top Workout Song on Spotify

Janie, our co-founder, doesn’t listen to music while working out. That’s kinda weird, no? Pretty sure she’s the only one. This inspired us to share the top workout song on Spotify. Give it a listen:
