LB ACTIVATION SAYULITA ESSENTIALS & TIPS

,

We’re headed to Sayulita Mexico! The weather will be beautiful. You can expect it to be warm and sunny during the day and a little chilly at night. We’ll be exploring the countryside and working out in the yoga pavilion, on the beach, in the pool, and heading out on the road (like, hiking and walking to the beach).

I tend to pack light and re-use outfits whenever I can.

Our Activation workouts are hybrid (think: half pool and half studio), so you’ll want supportive bathing suit tops and items that you don’t mind getting dirty on the beach.

I’m beyond excited that we’ll be able to explore Sayulita! Haramara is a fifteen minute walk/short cab ride into town where there are plenty of places to eat and exlore!

Activation Essentials:

  • 1-2 regular bras

  • 3-5 sports bras

  • 2-3 bathing suits

  • Plenty of socks 

  • Underwear

  • 2-3 pairs of workout shorts

  • 2-3 workout tops

  • 1-2 pairs workout pants

  • 2 casual sundresses/cover ups

  • 1-2 long sleeve tops (if it gets chilly at night)

  • 1-2 pair of long pants

  • 2-3 casual outfits for dinner at the hotel or going into town.

  • A HAT for beach/pool workouts

  • A pair of sneakers

  • A pair of flip flops or sandals

  • Sunscreen

  • A packable beach bag (We received feedback that a backpack is optimal for when you have to run/walk back from the beach)

  • Tiger Balm

  • Reusable water bottle 

  • Some cash – You can pay with a card at our hotel, but if you want to buy something in town, some places are cash only

  • Credit card

  • Passport

  • Medication (your prescriptions, allergies, etc.)

  • Personal First Aid Kit (Bandaids, Knee/ankle braces if you use them for exercise, etc.)

  • Probiotics/Immune Boosting Supplements

  • Hand Sanitizer/Disinfectant Wipes

What you don´t need:

If you want to lighten your load, Haramara has: Pool towels, Yoga mats, soap, shampoo and conditioner

LB Activation Tips:

  • Don't over-pack, you'll be living in your swimsuit + workout gear.

  • Consider taking Probiotics. Taking probiotics leading up to and throughout the trip may help you combat any digestive issues or upset stomachs that tend to be pretty common when traveling outside of the country. 

  • Please bring your own personal first aid kit.  You may need something for pain, sore muscles (clear-colored tiger balm), cramps, allergies/sinus, PMS, upset stomach, ear plugs, band-aids, Dramamine, sea bands, zinc, after sun balm, or any medications that you take on a regular basis.  If you have ankle or knee issues, don't forget your brace.

BETSY'S ACTIVATION RESULTS

, , , , , , , , , ,
BetsyActivation.JPG

SEVEN DAYS to vertical, musculoskeletal balance, -12.08”, and a healthier 🌱 diet. Meet @bootsycollins810 from Philly. This was B’s 9th Activation with me and she is always my favorite postural analysis/people to “fix”...I swear that I do not make anyone stand wonky on day one!

We work from the inside out and my goal is always to balance her muscularly and take the edge off the bulk/mass. This lighting is not ideal but check out the space between her arms and her bikini bottoms. And her back! 🤯 Betsy has a stunning body and builds muscle easily. She works really hard, and is always up for HH & another workout. Betsy began her fitness journey with me back at Lithe. She currently takes group classes at @rippedphl, does personal training and also fits in Studio LB. Tbh, I can’t imagine a retreat without her. Swipe on IG for her results last year 12 wks post labral hip repair and us three years ago in Little Corn, Nicaragua.

Betsy is strong, very fit, and loves to be challenged on the beach and in-studio. Her challenges are relaxing her traps and balancing her back and hip mobility during core/floor work. Betsy lost 12.08 inches and I love that her entire body is much more balanced on day seven. I cant say that we always see eye to eye on rest days, but I get her type of ‘crazy’ and we have a great working relationship. I adore you, B! Can’t wait for the next one.

SLB Activation Tips:

  • Don't over-pack, you'll be barefoot and living in your swimsuit + workout gear.

  • Mosquito repellent is your friend!

  • Don't forget your sun protection! With the proximity to the equator and the reflection off of the water, the sun in Jamaica can be intense.

  • Consider taking Probiotics. Taking probiotics leading up to and throughout the trip may help you combat any digestive issues or upset stomachs that tend to be pretty common when traveling outside of the country.  Additionally, if you have a sensitive stomach, this will clear it up in a jiffy.

  • Medical services will be limited and it is not recommended for pregnant women or those with serious medical conditions. 

  • Please bring your own personal first aid kit.  You may need something for pain, sore muscles (clear-colored tiger balm), cramps, allergies/sinus, PMS, upset stomach, ear plugs, band-aids, Dramamine, sea bands, zinc, after sun balm, or any medications that you take on a regular basis.  If you have ankle or knee issues, don't forget your brace!
