The power of consistency is real.

“Habit stacking” is a mantra we preach at Iron Tribe. Every time you do something good (like attend a workout or meal prep), you must do it again. And then another time. Until it’s engrained in your mind and routine. The more we practice our good habits, the easier they become!

This past year has certainly given us plenty of excuses to hit pause on our goals and slump back into old habits. If you need some motivation to get to the gym and kickstart your healthy habits, then check out this interview from one of Iron Tribe’s most dedicated gym couples, Jim and Betty Warren of Birmingham.

This fearless pair has made it a habit to show up at the gym and, more importantly, show up for themselves. They’ve hit the gym 19 weeks in a row and show no sign of slowing down.  Read their story and see how simple habits can stack up to powerful results.

Whether in a hospital, surgery center or clinic, COVID-19 has drastically changed the care physicians are able to provide patients.

According to a recent survey of medical practices in Alabama, the coronavirus has fundamentally altered Alabama’s healthcare delivery system and exposed policies that limit adaptive solutions.

The survey identified several key findings that could be detrimental to the delivery of healthcare in Alabama:

More than 500 products are made in Alabama but it can be difficult for Alabama owned businesses to get their products in front of consumers and it can be even harder for consumers to find products made in our great state. BamaInaBox.com was created with the purpose of making it easier for consumers to connect with Alabama-made products.

“As a small business owner, I know first-hand how hard the last few months have been and, as a consumer, I know that it can be incredibly difficult to find out which products are made in America, much less in Alabama,” Angi Horn Stalnaker, founder of Bama in a Box, said. “I wanted to create an easy and convenient way to get Alabama made goods in front of consumers. Once people know how many products are made right here, it makes it easier to search out those products in stores and online.”

Bama in a Box is a subscription service that delivers five to seven Alabama-made products to your doorstep monthly. Inside each box is a list of the products included in that month’s shipment as well as information on where each company is located and how to buy each product in-store or on-line. Because hundreds of products have been identified for possible inclusion in the shipments, no subscriber will ever receive the same product twice.

AARP Alabama, on behalf of its 420,000 members and older adults in the state, appreciates the leadership and significant amount of work the state has undertaken to address the COVID-19 pandemic and the unprecedented public health and economic crisis.

While severe health impacts of COVID-19 can occur across ages, the data has shown that it disproportionally impacts older adults worldwide. Sadly, Alabama is no different. Over 81% of Alabamians who have died from the virus are over 65.

Even more heartbreaking is the effect of COVID-19 on the most vulnerable citizens – those living in long-term care facilities or adult residential care facilities.

Transparency of information on COVID-19 cases is critical to fighting the disease. AARP urges the state to publicly release the names of long-term care facilities with confirmed COVID-19 cases and deaths among residents and staff on a daily basis on the Alabama Department of Public Health (ADPH) website’s coronavirus dashboard.

Like countless other businesses, Iron Tribe Fitness, a Birmingham-based gym, closed its doors in mid-March to prevent the spread of COVID-19 to its members and coaches. With five gyms in Birmingham and more than 30 others throughout the country, Iron Tribe Fitness Founder and CEO Forrest Walden said the decision to temporarily close was met with a mix of emotions. 

“This is something none of us saw coming,” Walden said. “Everything was changing by the hour, and we knew we had to put a plan in place fast to ensure our 1,200+ members in Birmingham continue to get the high-quality experience they’re used to and deserve.”

Thanks to the brand’s commitment to delivering a consistent experience to its current members, and launching a virtual membership option, Iron Tribe Fitness had not needed to lay off any of their coaches. In fact, Walden said, the gym has used this time to invest its dollars back into its gyms by doing a complete rebranding and renovation.
