Nela’s 5 Wellness Pillars:

At Nela Athletics, true transformation goes beyond just showing up for workouts. That’s why we center your journey around our 5 Wellness Pillars: Sleep, Hydration, Nutrition, Reflection & Recovery, and Exercise. Each pillar plays a critical role in helping you perform better, recover faster, and build sustainable habits that last far beyond the gym. When you align these pillars, you create the foundation for lasting strength, health, and confidence—in every part of your life. Over the next few weeks, we’ll walk you through each one and show you how small, consistent actions can lead to incredible results.

  1. Sleep – recovery is where results begin

  2. Hydration – your performance depends on it

  3. Nutrition – single-ingredient foods, real fuel

  4. Reflection & Recovery – take time to assess and improve

  5. Exercise – intentional movement leads to real growth

Each of these pillars works together to support your overall health, performance, and long-term success. To help you dive deeper into why each area matters, we’ve gathered some valuable resources. These articles will give you a closer look at how improving your sleep, hydration, nutrition, recovery, and exercise habits can accelerate your progress—both inside and outside the gym.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
