NUTRITION PLAN
Low Carb Menu
This day is designed to help your body burn off some of its stored energy and
increase the rate at which your body uses its own energy stores from fat. Most
people usually feel much lighter on this day. Try to still push yourself through your
workout even if your energy levels are not the highest due to the reduced number
ofcarbohydratesduring this day. What doesn’t challenge you doesn’t change you!

Your moderate day should help you fuel your body for some medium difficulty
workouts as well as workouts that may include a post workout cardio session such
as high intensity interval training. Don’t forget to drink plenty of water throughout
the day and it’s important to always include a multi vitamin balance to ensure you
are getting all of your required micronutrients.

NUTRITION PLAN
High Carb Menu
High days are great to help pick up energy levels as your glycogen (stored carbs in the
muscle for energy) levels get depleted throughout your workouts. You may feel fuller on
this day or even experience slight more bloating which is completely normal. Carbs
often get a bad reputation and aren’t the enemy in a fitness regimen as we need them
for our body’s to perform optimally and continue to repair our muscles from previous
workouts combine with high protein. This is the perfect day to really push your
performance during those tougher workouts or large body part groups such as legs or
back!

80/20 Cheat Meal
80/20 is your CHEAT meal day in which 80% of the foods you consume on this day
should be healthy and the remaining 20% or so can be consumed with whatever you
like! The purpose behind this day to give you some flexible in your meal plan perhaps to
try some new recipes or perhaps give in to your favorite craving that isn’t so healthy.
Our meal plans aren’t designed so you are always deprived but however teach it’s ok to
have things in moderation in controlled portions. For this day I want you to include 500
calories anywhere whether it’s adding condiments, additional snack, or try skipping one
of the meals below and have any meal of your choice worth 800 calories. Indulge but
don’t overdo it!

NUTRITION PLAN
 Eat2-3hourstofityourpersonalschedule.Itisnotcrucialtoeatatspecifictimesofthedayhowever
getting in a meal orshake within 60 minutes of a workout is recommended.
 Portion sizes are for cooked weight (except Oats are measured dry, and we still do cook them)
 Make sure when swapping out a macronutrient source you always replace it with another of its kind. For
example Replace a Protein source with a protein source, fat for fat, carbs for carbs{fruit for fruit} and
vegetables for vegetables. Even though I give anamount for veggies, green veggies with nosugar are
unlimited.
 Yes, you can sub out a Protein shake for any meal as well.(No more than 2)
 Make sure when tracking your macros you round up and down to the nearest 5 which may not exactly match
up with calorie tracker apps such as MyFitnessPal due to our rounding system. We try to keep things very
simple!
 Be sure to refer to your healthy choices food list in your Success Manual for the approved healthy foods.
 You are allowed to swap out ANY of the food sources you like! By allowing that, you have much more
control and freedom within your diet, you never have to eat anything that you don’t like!
 You also DO NOT have to have meals in this order as you can shuffle them to meet your schedule. These meals
are examples are how to reach your end of day macro totals. It’s most important you meet those macro
totals for each day!
 There will bedays whenyouwon’t always get ameal in or you are too busy or onthe go, don’t stress! I
promise it won’t make or break you. Just don’t make it a daily habit of skipping meals and you’ll do just fine!
:)
 Aim for 4 liters a day or 6-8 16oz bottles/cups
 Remember Nutrition isa crucial part of your results sodo your best to follow the plan the best you can for

Exercise PLAN
Weeks 1 - 2 Workout
It is important to focus on your form, timing your rest periods to maximize fat burning, and challenge yourself. Remember
to always include a proper and brief warm up. The best way to gauge the weight you should be using is the last 2-3 reps on
every set should require 85-100% of your max effort. On exercises where the reps decrease be sure to INCREASE your
weight on each set. On sets describing going to failure try to push yourself to as many proper form reps as you can.
Supersets are two exercises completed back to back before taking a rest and are highlighted in red. Make sure you TIME
your REST and don’t waste time in the gym. Bring a water bottle to keep hydrated during your workout and push
yourself!! Never leave the gym knowing you could have pushed a little harder!!

Exercise PLAN
High Intensity Interval Training Treadmill (HIIT) Cardio
To facilitate fat burning requires adding cardiovascular training to keep our heart in healthy shape as well as burn off extra
calories in addition your resistance training program. Always remember the MOST important muscle in your body is your
HEART, so regular cardiovascular training will improve your heart function and conditioning. For those beginning a workout
program it is best to do these workouts immediately following your resistance training workout to optimize the fat burning
effect. Never do your assigned cardio workout before your resistance training workout! Remember to bring a water bottle
to keep hydrated and do some light stretching before and after your cardio workout.
COACH TIP: IF YOU CAN’T COMPLETE THE INTERVALS AT THE SUGGESTED SPEED THAN
ADJUST ACCORDINGLY (KEEP INCLINE HOW IT IS THOUGH)
