Fall Into Consistency
A Template Challenge
A Template Challenge
The Fall Into Consistency Challenge is your opportunity to build consistency, practice utilizing the Street Parking Nutrition Template, and eliminate an all-or-nothing mindset around your nutrition.
Together we will focus on nutrition basics while learning how to create and customize a daily approach that is sustainable after the Challenge is over. But, how?
We are not going to force you to restrict or remove foods you love to eat.
We are going to give you more tools for your toolbox so you can confidently make nutrition work for your lifestyle and goals.
You have the freedom to choose your daily goals for each of the challenge tasks, even down to the nutrition method you prefer to use.
After 4 weeks, you’ll not only have built sustainable habits and gained confidence, but if you follow through with those daily tasks you’ll have earned a Fall Into Consistency badge for all your hard work!
Participants must be a current Street Parking member AND own a Street Parking Nutrition Template. If you do not already own a Template, you will be prompted to purchase one along with your registration.
During the challenge, your goal will be to build and sustain consistency in six nutrition and fitness habit categories by completing daily tasks and challenge goals. If you complete all of your daily tasks and challenge goals, you will earn the 2023 Fall Into Consistency badge.
You will select each of your task goals in the following six categories (listed below) for the Fall Into Consistency Challenge.
The goal is to increase overall consistency, add tools to your toolbox, and help eliminate an all-or-nothing mindset around your nutrition. Following the mix of all three methods allows the most flexibility while still incorporating your SP Nutrition Template, while following the Template Servings method will be the most challenging of the options over the 4 weeks.
Select Goal
I will follow Template Servings
I will follow a mix of all three methods (Template, Palm Method, and/or Balanced Plate)
Notes
Template customizations (such as postpartum, menopause, plant-based, meal frequency) will count.
When following the Balanced Plate method we recommend prioritizing your protein.
Recommended Food Chart
For this challenge, no foods are off limits — WHAT?! We want you to have the freedom to choose what you want to eat. The purpose of the Recommended Foods Chart is to help you prioritize choosing whole, unprocessed foods for most of your meals, not to force you to eliminate everything you love. The challenge is a great time to learn more about incorporating different foods by utilizing our resources.
Don’t worry. It won’t be all chips and cookies for October. There will be a focus on quality food in the diet, like your fruits and veggies. — More on that below. 😉
The goal is to incorporate fruit into your daily diet and not strictly rely on foods such as rice, potatoes, or oats for your daily carb servings. Fruit servings are based on the method you choose to follow.
Select Goal
1 serving per day
2 servings per day
3-4+ servings per day
What is 1 fruit serving?
Balanced Plate: 1 serving = getting some fruit in with your meal. No weighing or measuring necessary.
Palm Method: 1 serving = 1 cupped hand.
SP Nutrtition Templates: 1 serving = Use servings in grams listed under the carb section on your food chart provided with your Template purchase.
Tip for selecting your goal: Choose something you aren’t currently consistent with but are confident you can do! 1 serving consistently is better than 3 servings once in a while. Keep it simple.
The goal is to incorporate veggies into your daily diet. The SP Nutrition Template includes having veggies at every meal, which may be a big shift for some, so instead you have the freedom to choose a daily goal. Veggie servings are based on the method you choose to follow.
Select goal
2 servings per day
3 servings per day
4+ servings per day
What is 1 serving of veggies?
Balanced Plate: 1 serving = getting some veggies in with your meal. No weighing or measuring necessary.
Palm Method: 1 serving = 1 Closed Fist.
SP Nutrtition Templates: 1 serving = Use servings in grams listed under the vegetable section on your food chart provided with your Template purchase or 1 cup.
What about starchy vegetables?
You may have noticed that some items like squashes, carrots, peas are in the carbohydrates section of the Recommended Food Chart. You can use these towards your veggie servings too.
Tip for selecting your goal: Choose something you aren’t currently consistent with, but are confident you can do! 1 serving consistently is better than 3 or 4 servings once in a while. Keep it simple.
Goal options
Anywhere in the range of 20 oz. - 100+ oz.
What counts?
Only YOU know if you are challenging yourself to improve your habits. In general we would love to see these ounces in regular, plain water. If you need to start with a little flavoring or using items like seltzer water, that’s up to you.
Tip for selecting your goal: Choose something you aren’t currently consistent with but are confident you can do!
Select goal
Completely eliminate alcohol for the duration of the challenge.
Limit myself to 1 drink over the course of the challenge
Limit myself to 2 drinks over the course of the challenge
Limit myself to 3 drinks over the course of the challenge
Limit myself to 4 drinks over the course of the challenge
Tip for selecting your goal: Consider your current alcohol intake and ask yourself, "Is this supporting me to reach my overall goals?"
It is no surprise that there is no nutritional value in alcohol, and it has a domino effect on your health, like performance, sleep, recovery, and much more. We recommend skipping alcohol altogether for this challenge to CHALLENGE yourself and see how you feel when you do remove it.
Select Goal (1 workout per day)
16+ workouts over the course of the challenge (1 workout on 16 separate days)
20+ workouts over the course of the challenge (1 workout on 20 separate days)
Workout options:
Daily Workouts
Extra Programs
Mamas Postpartum Recovery*
10 minutes of Functional Progression Flow*
Mamas Rehab, Mamas SOGO* (additional purchase required)
*Not loggable in the App or platform.
Notes:
If you do more than one workout on the same day, it still only qualifies as 1 day with a workout.
The workouts must be a Street Parking workout.
Our recommendation is to complete at least 4 workouts per week as a good balance of workout and rest days. We also understand that life happens, so customize as needed based on your schedule.
Maintenance sessions do not count as a workout.
Follow through with your tasks for all 28 days of the challenge and earn the Fall Into Consistency badge! This badge will appear by Monday, November 5th for those who complete all of their challenge goals AND submit the one-time logging form.
If you have bought a Street Parking Nutrition Template at ANY point from us, you are good to go! If you need to make any customization or adjustments, you can check out our the "Adjustments For Special Considerations" section of your updated How-To Guide.
First, don’t panic! Check your junk/spam and trash folders for emails from [email protected]. Your Template may have been sent to a different email address than the one you currently use. If you use a payment method such as Shop Pay, Apple Pay, etc. your documents would have been sent to the email address associated with that payment method.
If you still cannot find it or if you think you received the incorrect Template, reach out to [email protected]. Please include any names and email addresses that may be associated with your order — and your original order number, if possible.
We will provide a Printable and Digital option for a 28-Day Consistency Checklist to help you track your progress and consistency during the 4 week challenge. The resources will be emailed to you 24-48 hours after registering for the challenge.
