We all have responsibilities for our families, pets, neighbors and communities. By taking steps now, you can be in control of both your safety and those you care about before, during and after a disaster. Think about what you’ll need and how the people in your social circles can help each other. A great place to start is by knowing the risks where you are. Then, make a plan and build an emergency supply kit to help keep yourself and those you love safe and comfortable during and after a disaster. Finally, get involved by keeping up to date with your community’s emergency and disaster plan and working with neighbors to prepare.

🌿💪 Wellness Wednesday at Mountain Fitness

Whether you’re just starting your squatting journey, squatting plates, chasing PRs, OR wanting to squat Scott Patrick himself 😆… your body deserves some extra love this month.

Here’s your Squat Patrick September Wellness Formula:
✅ Mobility First: 10 deep bodyweight squats, 5x World’s Greatest Stretch each side, 5x 90/90s each side (2 sets)
✅ Recover Smart: Spend 5 minutes foam rolling thoracic spine, quads, hamstrings & calves
✅ Fuel Up: Hydrate + hit your protein goal to keep muscles happy
✅ Rest & Restore: Quality sleep = stronger squats tomorrow

Remember — strength isn’t just built under the bar, it’s built in how you take care of yourself outside the gym too. Little by little, a little becomes a lot 🏔️💜

💬 Need help with mobility, recovery, nutrition, or squat form? Reach out to one of our Mountain Fitness trainers — we’ve got the resources & coaching to help you crush your goals. .fitmiss .mae.salonen

September is National Preparedness Month, the perfect time to get prepared for disasters. From earthquakes to wildfires and more, Central California is prone to no-notice events, and the time to prepare is now.

Every emergency plan needs these 4 must-haves:
1. A safe place to shelter
2. Reliable transportation
3. A ready-to-go supply bag
4. Trusted sources for alerts

Disasters don’t wait—your plan shouldn’t either.
