Body Transformation
Week one – What is this all about?
So, you have accepted the challenge and you are now looking at six weeks of something new. Let’s start by laying some ground rules that will help you along your road to success.
Keep a log for each day. In it will go: How well did you stick to the plan? Did you miss a meal? Did you supplement any ingredients? How did you feel, stressed, hungry, thirsty? How did you sleep? It’s all important, so write it down.
Make sure you get enough sleep. Seven to eight hours a night is recommended.
Keep you intake of water up. Replace tea and coffee with a simple cold water.
Note down your exercise, what you did and for how long?
Take some before and after photos. Sometimes you must see to believe what you have achieved!
Take some before and after measurements. The figures do not lie!
That’s enough to keep you going. Now, remember, we are here to help you through this. Call and talk to us if you have any problems, with detail in the programme or just mentally struggling to get through to the end.
