Have each meal 2-3hrs apart after meal one. It doesn’t matter what time you eat at night, what matters is what you eat late 🙂
If you train at night, eat before you train and finish the day with the post workout shake.Hi Daniela!
Thank you 🙂 Yes, definitely a perfectionist lol
1- The egg whites in this program account for roughly 25g protein. So you could exchange that with any other lean protein on the food exchange list as long as it is VERY low fat and high protein (25g)
2-Yes oat bran/oatmeal is measured dry
3- Yes just make sure the carbs are the same
4- Bars are not allowed in this programThis can be a kickstart to a comp prep but keep in mind that competing is an entirely different program. Much much more specific and strict.
Good luck!
How often? I am not sure what you mean. I don’t really recommend any substitutions, however if you are subbing the fruit out from the post workout meal, you could use any of the fruits in the food exchange list.
Powdered supplements will get into the system much faster than capsules will. Roughly 5min compared to 20-30min.
Lean beef can be subbed for salmon……
Personally I didn’t include any dairy in this plan because lactose is a form of sugar and to get as lean as possible to get your abs to show, I want to eliminate any potential possibility that could prevent this from happening. Keep in mind that everyone is different. If you add cottage cheese in in moderation and you still see results, go for it.I would consult with your doctor before adding any additional supplements. Remember, supplements are not absolutely necessary to see results. They can help with energy and recovery, but you will still see progress if you have to wait a while before adding them in.
Before you cut your numbers down and choose a lower meal plan, give the program that fits your height and weight a shot first. You may be grossly undereating and that could be the reason why your progress has stalled. I promise that you won’t get fat by eating the foods that are on this program. You may feel full the first week but your body will adjust and it will get easier.
They recipes are on the Nutrition page. Scroll all the way down under all of the meal plans and you will see it there in a PDF
Make sure your file is not too big. That may be the problem. Also, make sure you are logged in before uploading.
If you have additional questions and it still doesn’t work, email [email protected].If you are weight training in the morning, you can have the shake before you train and then 2-3hrs after that have meal 1.
You should have received all of the info Marquerite. Check your spam box to make sure it isn’t in there. Either way, all of the info is on the site. Just head to the main challenge page and scroll down to see all of the info (you have to click on the bars).
If you didn’t receive any emails, shoot us an email at [email protected] so we can make sure you are on the list.
I recommend adding salt to your foods- totally fine! Don’t stress about the sodium- you are sweating a lot and drinking enough water. Just keep it consistent each day.
lol No you won’t get mercury poisoning. Albacore is totally fine!
You can find the recipes if you scroll down on the nutrition page. It is located just above the grocery list.
I have never seen this before. As far as I am concerned, if it is high quality and fits within the goal numbers, it is ok with me.
This program is a great place to start to see how your body responds to these numbers. Give it a shot and follow it very closely. 🙂
Hey ladies,
For all technical questions, please email [email protected] so we can figure out how to help you each individually. Check your spam mail to make sure you got the direct link. You do not have to be a member to upload photos- you just have to be logged in with the username and password you received when you registered for the challenge.Veggies do count toward the total carbs. It is important to get your micronutrients. I wouldn’t count fruit as a swap for veggies.
This is not a Ketogenic meal plan. I recommend following the plan if you hope to win the challenge.
The nutrition is the same for 45 days.
Quaker oat bran works. I like Trader Joe’s too 🙂
Both phases are available to view. The only thing that isn’t available yet are the videos for each exercise in phase two training.
