    That is how I like it. You can always eat them separate

    The one I used in the program has 8g per serving, so I would adjust the one you have or find one with less.

    Hey guys-
    Choose 10 dates instead of weighing them. Every label I read said that one date weighed was 24g so x10 it is roughly 250g weighed.
    Almond flakes are almond slices – sorry for the confusion
    They are unsweetened coconut flakes

    As for storing them, I would put them in the fridge.

    Cardio is 3×30 and you can choose from the cardio options on the document (there are bodyweight workouts) or you can choose your own.

    Hey guys,

    You can absolutely substitute any SC for another SC on the list. There will always be some small discrepancies between the SC’s as it is impossible for them all to be exactly equal. For example, 1/2 bagel has around 24g carbs and 6 Triscuits has 20g carbs.
    If one of the meals is on the lower end of the goal macro range, another meal may be on the higher end of the range.
    Does this help?

    it says 10grams of butter but full fat is 14grams is this a typo, very confused.
    Thank you

    Can you describe where you are seeing this? Is it in your meal plan?
    10 grams is the weight on the scale. 10 grams weighed equals 14g of fat.

    As I am looking to plan my meals for next week, I am questioning Meal 2 on Women’s Plan 1, option 1. This is the exact same as Phase 1, Meal 2, Option 1 – but is suppose to be 50 cals lower. Is there a typo in the plan?

    Thanks!

    Hi!
    I create the meal plans based on macros. The macros are within 5g of the goal for each meal. This is often very close from meal plan to meal plan. If I increased any portion of the meal it would throw it out of that range, so sometimes I leave it knowing that if it is a little low, you will make up those calories in another meal and vice versa. I hope that helps!
    The most important aspect of any program is the consistency.
    The meal you are referring to though is not the same in both phases. In phase 1 it contains a 1/2 bagel and in phase 2 it contains Triscuits. Am I not looking in the right place?

    Hi Pam,
    Take BURN fat burner during the times you need a boost of energy. It contains 250mg of caffeine so take that into consideration when taking it later in the day. It’s purpose is to help with focus, energy, and aid in fat loss during a caloric deficit.

    Take TRAIN pre workout prior to your weight training workouts only- regardless of the time. This product does not contain caffeine so you can take it late at night without it interfering with your sleep. It’s purpose is to help increase blood flow, stamina, and strength.

    Looking ahead to Phase 2 the calendar says 4/days week of cardio 2 HIIT and 2 Interval. However, if you read the e-book in the Cardio section it says 5 days cardio, 3 days HIIT, 2 days interval. Could you clarify please! Thank You!

    Hey there! It is 2 days HIIT, 2 days Interval as stated in the calendar. We will adjust the ebook 🙂 Thanks for the catch!

    Hi Kimmy,
    You are doing 10 extra reps, but that’s ok 🙂
    If it just says 10/10, you do 10 at the heavier weight, drop and do 10 more. Done.
    If it says 10/10/10 you drop it twice instead of only one time.

    In the instructions we just used the 10/10/10 as an example. You technically can drop anywhere from 1 to 10x if you like lol You just did a few bonus reps. No harm done!

    Yes the way it is on the current food exchange list is how it will always be moving forward.

    Tomato sauce is not on the veggie exchange list so it would not be an even swap. Tomato sauce typically also contains additional fats

    Yes you’re right 100g raw is quite a lot of spinach lol. Enjoy 😊 there is literally only 30cal in 100g raw. Not enough to stall your progress.

    No problem at all 😊💪
    Maybe avoid loading it and just take it consistently daily around 3-5G for you. If you load it and don’t add enough sodium and water to your diet you can cramp pretty bad.

    Unfortunately it sounds like you may need more of a custom plan and to work with one of our trainers one on one. Email [email protected] if you would like more info.

    If not, I would eliminate all fats from all meals but one and increase the total carbs in all meals to make up for it.

    in reply to: 1/4 fruit or 1/2 fruit serving. Need clarification #458444

    It should be 1/2 FR if the meal plan says 17g

    Curious,
    What would happen if you included moderate carbs in each meal without saving them for later?

    Nope you don’t need to adjust anything. Just follow it as written 😊👍

    From scratch is best. Just make sure there is no added oils

    They can stay in the fridge for about a week

    Hi team!

    Can you take a look at the 45 minute interval cardio on page 78 titled “Run Track Minds”? I think we need to repeat rounds but it’s missing that part of the workout list. Super excited to jump into this challenge!!!

    Thank you,
    Jane

    The duration will vary for this workout. Some people will complete the 45min by going longer durations at each phase. I would recommend going through all of the rounds, see how much time it took for you to complete it. If you are half way to 45min, repeat all rounds one more time.

    Yes it is only 3 sessions of HIIT.
    There is nothing wrong with doing HIIT on a leg day, I always just find it easier to do proper hiit when my legs arent fatigued 🙂
