Please help me.

I am 5.5 ft tall 115 pounds I followed the challenge perfectly. Food and workouts on point. I weighed all my food and followed the exchange list. I have seen some results however I would have liked to gain more muscle. I did progressive overload and definitely increased weight. I followed meal plan 2 and I am wondering if I need to follow a different meal plan for more calories and protein to gain more muscle.
I am going to restart because I did all home workouts now I’m going to switch and do all the gym workouts. I absolutely loved all of the videos for the home workouts. I wish she could incorporate those for the gym workouts as well in upcoming challenges.

That is fantastic that you saw results! If you saw results and want to gain more muscle, then I would just do exactly what you did for longer. If you try to increase your nutrition then you may start to gain more body fat than muscle, so from the sounds of it you were doing everything right to gain good quality lean muscle and gain strength but not gain body fat. You can try to move up to meal plan 2, but if you find you are gaining more body fat than muscle, then just go back down to meal plan 1 and give it more time. Muscle is built over time 😉

GREAT JOB!!

Good questions that I’m sure Nicole’s team will address. In my opinion, it takes a long time to build significant muscle. At least that’s my case. The challenge helped me in that I picked up heavier weights than what I normally lift. I feel stronger. I lost pounds and inches with the meal plan I followed, yet felt so energized and strong at each workout.

I am a week behind and alos followed to a T. Weigh all food ect. Did not lose anything weightwise- gained! I did do measurements and have lost inches. Will just keep plugging along unless anyone has any other suggestions? I need to lose at least 30!

Thank you for your response. I already had muscle definition from previous challanges. Do you still think I should keep following this challange? If so for how long?

I have purchased around 10 challanges. Do you think Nicole will discount them in the future for repeat buyers?

I would keep going with this one until you feel like you aren’t progressing as much from a strength training standpoint. My guess is there won’t be any further discounts but you never know.
