Nicole said you do not have to resubmit your photos if you used “z”.

ModeratorIs it ok to assume that two full eggs are 13 gr of protein, 10 gr of fat since they are only listed as egg whites and yolks?
Thanks,6 whites is about 25g of protein and 2 yolks would be 10g of fat. APPROX.
so 2 whites would be about 8g of protein.
I woudln’t try and count macros based on the exchange list. These foods are not exactly those numbers.Maureen
ModeratorCan someone tell me the total amount of cardio we need on cardio days? I know it
is most likely in there somewhere and I am probably staring at it but I seem to be blind lol.Each cardio workout looks to be 30 min. I honestly didn’t see it in the book either.
Maureen
ModeratorOh sorry that I missed that in another question. I will check through all the posts next time before I ask.
<3it’s all good. You wouldn’t have seen that a question was asked. Ask away.
Maureen
ModeratorOk, I’m sorry I’m still confused over here lol I’ve read the other threads in regards to this and I’m still lost. I just want to make sure I’m understanding correctly.
2×10, 6 (warm up) : Means two sets total, one set of 10, and one set of 6
4×10, 8, 6, 6 : Means four sets total, one set of 10….one set of 8, one set of 6, one set of 6
I’m overthinking this I’m sure, but just want to make sure I’m doing it correctly. Thank you!
Deep breath. You are overthinking a bit.
one set of 10
one set of 6one set of 10
one set of 8
one set of 6
one set of 6Total of 6 sets

ModeratorJust saved to my files like you said, that works!!
Game changer
Maureen
ModeratorYou don’t have to redo your pics if you spelled it with a “z”. Rest easy
Maureen
ModeratorWould 100g of hearts of palm be considered 1 serving of V? Or is it not allowed?
ThanksI think you would have to check the carb content on that…if it’s not listed as an exchange. If you aren’t 100% sure then I would omit it.
Maureen
ModeratorAny word on the rice quantity ?
LOL that is Nicole’s mistake. she had rice in there at first but the carb macros ended up way too high so she eliminated it but forgot to change the title of the recipe. So rice is omitted.

ModeratorThe Superset on GYM WORKOUT Day 6 Weeks 1/3/5 has 2 exercises with 4 Reps and the rest with 3 reps. Are these all supposed to be 3 reps or should we go back after the 3 supersets and do another set of 1-1/4 BBSS and DBFS (which would be total torture).
Are you referring to exercises 5 and 6 both say 4 sets but these others say 3? Im assuming you didn’t mean reps..I will ask nicole. Thanks!
Maureen
ModeratorI noticed that the following exercises are linked to the wrong videos in the ebook (or the video is correct, but the exercise name needs to be changed). These are in the At-Home (Dumbbell/Bodyweight) section.
pg 42
exercise: singe leg dumbbell stiff legged deadlift
video: barbell good morningpg 43
exercise: incline plyo pushup
video: incline dumbbell presspg 46
exercise: dumbbell deadlift
video: barbell sumo deadliftpg 50
exercise: 1 1/4 dumbbell squat
video: dumbbell squatpg 51
exercise: weighted double crunch
video: exercise ball tuckupThanks I will forward these on.
Maureen
ModeratorPerfect, yes, that is what I was hoping to do.
Cheers
Great! Good luck. 🍀
Maureen
ModeratorThanks Mo
Sorry for my typos. That’s what I get for typing too fast without my glasses. Face palmAll good 😊 the last set of 6 reps wasn’t in the book so no worries
Maureen
ModeratorHello. I asked this for the Q&A. Right now, hard cardio like running, jumping jacks, things like that are something I am not able to do due to injury. I can do some dancing, mountain climbing, easy stuff like that. I’m just worried that I will not see results because of not going hard cardio. I do have an elliptical but need to be careful. Any helpful tips is appreciated because I really want to make this work. Thank you
What’s important is that you meet yourself where you are. Do what YOU can to challenge yourself, it won’t look the same for everyone. Do the best you can while making sure you are taking care of yourself.
Maureen
ModeratorSay if I am doing the Gym Program but I dont like the exercises for that day can I switch it out for the same day same week in one of the other workout routines like in the At Home Workouts Full Equipment or the At Home Body Weight and DB Workouts and do that workout instead for that day or is it best to follow each day as laid out
My first question would be why don’t you like the exercises? Are they tough, or it’s hard to get the form down….whatever the reason, I would try them and see if you can start to enjoy the challenge of them (if that’s the case). You can do the different workouts as well.
Maureen
ModeratorI don’t see a page or two listed in the eBook regarding what the specific warmups are. Shall I just use the warmup links for upper and lower body for now?
Click on the link at the top of the workout that says “lower body warm up” or “upper body warm up” to see the warm up for that workout.
Maureen
ModeratorThe reps are as follows:
warm up is 10 and then 6 reps.(total of 2 sets) Working sets are 10, 8, 6, 6. (total of 4 sets) This change will be changed in the ebook.ON Day 1 Lower Body, under Squats it says:
6 Sets: 2×10,6 (warm up) and 4×10,8,6 –> Should 4 be here also for the 4th set?4th set should be 6 reps
Maureen
ModeratorHi:) I am going to be on the regular meal plan, but can I swap meal one from the regular and vegan meal plans for variety? Thanks!
You can mix and match the meals for example:
meal 1 vegan
meal 2 reg
meal 3 vegan
meal 4 reg
etc.
The biggest thing to remember is that if you want to swap items in a particular meal you must using the corresponding exchange list. For vegan meal use the vegan exchange. For reg meal, use the reg exchange.Maureen
ModeratorThis is so frustrating when ever I click on the exercise demo on the workout day that I am doing after I watch the video it takes me all the way back to the E Book start page and I have scroll down to find the page I was on thats so annoying how do I fix it this happens to me both on my IPAD and IPHONE both in Safari and in Chrome as my browsers I know how to save it on both my phone and iPad has any one else have this
Save the ebook to your files. Then when you click on a video it takes you to the Nicole’s video page. Then click the arrow at the top and it takes you right back to the workout page.
Maureen
ModeratorIn meal plan one it says to add 8g of peanut butter to the recipe… should I add 32g of peanut butter for 4 servings while I make it or simply add 8 grams on top of my already made pudding cup? Not sure what is implied. Looks yummy thanks!!!
Add that to your already made pudding for that meal. It’s just added fat for that meal so you know you have that added fat.
Maureen
ModeratorHow long is the cardio session?
Looks like they are all 30 min
Maureen
ModeratorFor this exercise, are we rocking laterally? Or back and forth. I don’t think I’ve ever done this before…
Hi. Click on the exercise and there is a video demonstration. It’s a regular squat with swinging of DB’s in front of you. Check it out
Maureen
ModeratorHi. 🙂
Where can I find the Pre-Challenge fitness test as mentioned in the Photo Upload Email?
“The Challenge officially begins on Monday, so that will give you this weekend to get everything prepared, look over the program and take the pre-Challenge fitness test (if you choose – it’s totally optional).”
I checked the ebook (looked through it, and searched for the words fitness, test, pre-challenge), the welcome video, & the training videos page. I know sometimes the ebook isn’t “official” until a few days after it is out, to catch any mistakes, so maybe it’s just not in there yet?
Thanks, and looking forward to this new challenge!
~DarcieLet me check on that
Maureen
ModeratorSome people stand with arms straight out in front or back so you can see your waist and glutes. As long as you do it the same in your afters, all good
