[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_text_separator title=”Welcome to This Day in Barrington History” title_align=”separator_align_left”][vc_column_text]Good morning and welcome to February 23 and Day 54 of 365 in Barrington, Illinois! You’ll find our stories of the day – past, present & future (events) – right here on today’s DailyPage. Because every day has its own rhythm, we’re sharing a song of the day here at 365Barrington.com.
On this day, February 23rd in 1981, American actor, singer and the unmistakeable voice of Olaf from Disney movie, Frozen, JOSH GAD was born! Gad also played the role of Elder Arnold Cunningham in Broadway musical, The Book of Mormon, and LeFou in the live-action adaptation of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast.
In 2015 Josh showed up in the audience with a desire to host The Late Show with James Corden. Pretty funny stuff. Check it out…

GET A GRIP ✊💪
Something fun is coming to CFB! 👀
Starting September 7th, we’re kicking off a 4-week grip strength challenge! We’ll test your grip strength at the start using our hand grip dynamometer, then sprinkle grip work into your workouts, accessory work, and throughout the week.
We’ll retest at the end on October 2nd and see just how much stronger those hands got. 💪

Still starting over every Monday? 👀
You ate great all week… then Friday night happened.
Dinner out. Drinks. Pizza. Maybe some dessert.
And suddenly it feels like you “blew it,” so you might as well enjoy the rest of the weekend and start fresh Monday.
Sound familiar?
Here’s the thing 👉 you don’t need another fresh start. You need habits you don’t have to keep starting over.
One meal doesn’t ruin your progress. One weekend doesn’t erase everything you did all week.
Have the pizza. Enjoy the birthday cake. Go out with your friends.
Then come back to your normal habits at the next meal.
This is a HUGE part of what we work on in my 1:1 Nutrition Coaching Program.
We’re not looking for another diet you can follow perfectly for a few weeks. We’re building realistic habits that work with your actual life — weekends, vacations, busy schedules, dinners out and everything in between.
Because the goal isn’t to be perfect.
The goal is to finally get out of the cycle of being “good,” falling off, feeling guilty and starting over again.
Ready to stop starting over?
Schedule a FREE nutrition consultation with me through the link in our bio and let’s talk about how 1:1 nutrition coaching can help you reach your goals. 💪🥦

We had such a fabulous time over the past couple of days handing out our Mental Health Coping Kits to the students at Barrington High School. We hope the students find the resources helpful as they start the new school year. You can learn more about the kits at https://bit.ly/4xNIa7u and en Espanol en https://bit.ly/4wgjSSb
Thank you again to the Barrington Area Community Foundation for their support and helping to make the coping kits a reality.

Almost 10 years ❤️
Reviews like this one from Tanya P. mean so much to us because this is exactly what we aspire CFB to be.
A place where you come to get stronger, work hard and challenge yourself, but also a place where your coaches know you, believe in you and genuinely care about seeing you succeed.
Tanya, Thank you for trusting us with your fitness for all these years and being such a big part of making our community so special!
If you have been thinking about trying CrossFit, NOW is the time to start!
We have a back to school special running $25 for TWO WEEKS!
