Daily Links – How To

Hello Rebel Fit Club Virtual Fighters,

We are launching your new membership site. This is for YOU only, our current Virtual and Hybrid members, to make it easier to find your daily link.

You can get your daily links 2 ways now:

  1. In your morning email inbox as always.
  2. Through the membership portal on our website.

If you don’t see your link in your email try these helpful tips:

  • Look in your Spam or Promotions folder, or
  • Go to our website rebelfitclub.com, click on Member Login in the top left corner, and find your daily link there.

We cannot guarantee we will be available to help you last-minute. Brandy and I are teaching a lot of classes and cannot always re-send links. Please contact us only after taking the above steps.

I made this “safety net” member login because email servers are getting very fussy about allowing businesses to send you daily emails. Now you can be proactive and just go to our website to find it. It’s really easy.

Thank you for being such committed fighters! We love you and want to help you every way we can.
