2024 September Challenge.

Have you got what it takes?

Do you ever go to the gym, look at the weights and wonder what on earth you do with them?

According to Forbes, ‘Muscle building is a vital part of any fitness routine and can help enhance muscle tone, improve balance, reduce the risk of injury and improve overall health.’ Regular strength training has some less obvious advantages as well, including a host of mental health benefits like reduced symptoms of anxiety and depression.

Imagine if you spent 30 days in September working on building this into a habit to improve your health and fundraise for the pioneering scheme, A Bed Every Night.

Use our 30-day tracker to find out the number of reps you need to complete each day- you decide the weight of your dumbbell. Are you going to work out your glutes, shoulders, arms or abs? That is for you to decide!

You could even get competitive. Challenge a friend or family member, even a work colleague. You can challenge them on social media with the tag line, ‘I challenge you’, think bucket challenge but with weightlifting. Get your phone out and make some great reels, do it together, you can even get your gym involved.

The most original and funny ones will be shared on our social media channels - remember to tag us and add #TeamGMMC.

Set yourself a fundraising target and remember that for every £30 you raise, you cover the cost of a nights accommodation. Now I call that a challenge, how about you?

So! What are you waiting for?
