Own Your Strength in the Kitchen with our NEW, Customizable Meal Plan

By Tone It Up on

Your 4-week Own Your Strength summer challenge starts May 2, 2022! The intention of Own Your Strength is to support you to honor and celebrate your individual strengths — in your workouts, nutrition habits, mindfulness practices, and every area of your life. 

That’s why your OYS Meal Plan is more customizable than ever.

Do you love getting creative in the kitchen? 

Are you the queen of quick meals on-the-go? 

Are you the master of meal prep? 

Are you into easy air fryer recipes? 

No matter your strengths, we’ve got you covered.

The focus for the plan is Lean, Clean, ‘N Green. Together, we’ll:

  • Opt for nourishing protein to fuel our workouts
  • Eat fruits and veggies as much as possible

As long as you’re sticking to these principles, you’re “on the plan.” It’s really that simple.
