Build a Better You - 40 Day Fitness Challenge

What Is the 40-Day Fitness Challenge?

The “Build a Better You” challenge is your opportunity to create a sustainable fitness and wellness routine. From February 10, 2025, to March 21, 2025, dedicate a minimum of 30 minutes daily to your health with activities that suit your style.

Why Join the Challenge?

  • Flexibility: Choose your preferred workouts — strength training, cardio, pool sessions, quiet stretching, instructor-led classes, Stick & Puck, or leisure skating.
  • Motivation: Weekly wellness challenges keep you engaged and help you earn “Recovery Days” to rest and recharge.
  • Community: Join others striving for better health, building strength, resilience, and habits together.

How Does It Work?

  1. Register: Sign up online or at Guest Services.
  2. Show Up: Work out at Trico Centre every day for 40 days, committing to at least 30 minutes of activity.
  3. Earn Recovery Days: Complete a weekly fitness or wellness challenge to earn one “Recovery Day” per week. Check out the fitness desk or online for your weekly “Building Better Challenges.”
  4. Track Progress: Be added to our tracking board and select your complimentary shirt size upon registration.

Dates & Cost

Challenge Dates: Monday, February 10, 2025 – Friday, March 21, 2025

Not a member? Purchase a Fitness Challenge Pass to participate. The Pass grants you access to Trico Centre for the duration of the challenge (February 10-March 21).

Weekly Challenges & Recovery Days

Each week, explore 5 ways to earn a “Recovery Day,” including activities that may introduce you to new workouts or wellness practices. Completing just one challenge earns you a maximum of one recovery day, which you can use anytime during the 40-day period.

The Importance of Recovery Days

Recovery days are critical to your fitness journey. They allow muscles to repair, reduce injury risk, prevent burnout, and support mental well-being. Use recovery days to recharge and return stronger, staying consistent in achieving your fitness goals.
