Okay thank you. I once heard to have your meal right after the workout and before cardio if chose to do cardio afterward.
I think having post strength is a good idea. Fuel those muscles right after. If that’s an option for you.
Hello
I’m sorry to say I did not see it in any of the grocery list or food exchange. Just trying to see what is suggested.
I’m asking for the waffle that says powdered sugar of your choice.
It’s lot listed because it doesn’t tend to be something we put on the exchange list. It’s just part of this recipe.
Meal 5 is my go to breakfast when I work, it is easy to eat and filling. It’s a grab and go for me. does it matter the order of the meals?
Meal five is meant to be eaten post strength, training, and the days you don’t strength train you can eat it whenever you want. Meal five doesn’t really contain much fat at all if you want to eat a meal that is similar to this use the exchange list on one of the other meals meals one through four and you can basically create the exact same thing and it would include fat because you use the exchange list and picked something out. Does that make sense?
Hello
Question about the N Power High-performance Pre workout and premium fat burner
N Power High-performance Pre workout Says drink 30-45 mins before workouts
N Power premium fat burner says for best results consume before exercise.
I have both from my last challenge June 2024.
How do u suggest I use these? Both in 1 day or not? Fat burner 2 hours before workout and premium-workout 45 mins before?
Just checking what is suggested.
Would use the pre-workout like it says before You exercise. I look at the fat burner is more like an energy drink. If I already drink coffee in the morning, I don’t use a fat burner in the morning as well sometimes I might use it at like 2 o’clock in the afternoon because I need a little push to get through my workout. I suggest not using the fat burner after 3 o’clock because you might disrupt your sleeping because of the caffeine. I would use the pre-workout on the days that you strength train and I would use the fat burner when you feel like you need it.
Nice!
Download the latest eBook. The recipe is on Page 80.
Thanks Venise
Hi there. On the bottom of the video to the right you will see the gear icon. To the right of that are 3 lines. Click that and it will show “chapter” which will list the exercises and you can click and go right to the exercise.
Hello
There are many different chipotle seasonings. Any suggestions?
Choose a brand you feel comfortable using. I’m sure there are a lot of good ones out there
Hello
I had this problem in the past challenges. I haven’t been able to find nonfat cottage cheese. Closest I can find is 1%.
Just go with it and depending on how much fat just decrease the serving a bit with the other fat in the meal. Don’t stress about it.
I’m not sure what’s in your cart and their macros. But can you see if that meal with your selection will hit the macros goal for the meal?
Will we still have access to the mindset videos after the challenge? I joined late and want to make sure I watch them all.
Yes, the links will still work post challenge.
I think there is a problem because the hip is only showing outer thigh. The inner thigh/groin is not shown in the video. Would you please check on this to be certain?
It looks like it is the same video as TFL video. Thank you. I let them know.
I just want to say Thank you so much for deciding to film the workouts. I have bought a bunch of challenges in the past because I love them but at the same time, I often found it cumbersome because I am not familiar with the “lingo” and almost always had to look the move up. This had me quitting and going back to beachbody because it was “easier” to just “press play”. Nicole, you are such an inspiration and being able to work out alongside of you actually pushes me to dust off those heavier weights and go for it!!! Love this challenge and love the Mindset piece as well. Keep doing what you are doing!!
That’s such great feedback..I already passed this along to Nicole. Thank you for joining us!
Don3 rounds if that’s what she did in the follow along
Thank you Maureen. Running used to be my active meditation as I like to call, but I have replaced it with cycling and do it daily because I truly look forward to it 🙂 Trying to find that consistency with strength which I do enjoy as well. It just takes more though sometimes so I am grateful for Niclole and Team for all of the though put into these programs. Love the follow along too! You guys are all truly in it with us and that is awesome!!
You have to keep doing the stuff you love. That’s what keeps you going. You are so welcome. We are here to help.
Hi, I am following Meal plan 2. For the Chipotle Chicken burrito bowl, I have been eating it as one serving, lol. I didn’t even realize that it said 2 servings. So if it’s two servings should I break the recipe in half? For example, it says 1/2 cup of brown rice, so should I do 1/4 for 2 separate bowls? 1/4 cup pico de gallo, 2oz chicken for each bowl since it says 4oz chicken breast? Sorry, I know someone already asked about this recipe but I’m still confused.
2 servings. Yep cut it in half 👍. The things that are easy to divide go for it. The others you just do your best
Can the smoked salmon be exchanged with light tuna fish? On the meal plan it shows it as the recipe is LP/SC/F. But salmon is on the FP list. I just want to make sure I am exchanging correctly.
I am on meal plan 2.When dealing with a recipe it is looked at as a whole with macros and other considerations….it’s not specifically taking the specific items in there and exchanging it like it does in other meals. If you really want to put something else in there….I would take the macros for it and plug what you want in My fitness pal and see if you can get the macros close but again, if you aren’t savvy with that stuff I would just stick to the way it is.
Hi – I know the workout/program does not require any extra cardio, however, I do enjoy riding my Peleton. If I continue to ride a moderate 30min/day is it as imperative to get my heart rate as elevated in the workouts? I only ask this because the jumping for example in Day 2 and bench step ups don’t always pair well with my knees 🙁 so hoping it is okay to stay low impact or modify and use step as opposed to bench. TIA!
I don’t see that being a problem.
Hey – for those of us who do not have a waffle maker – has anyone tried to make this as a pancake? Wondering if it would work. Thanks 🙂
Give it a whirl 🙂
Hello, another question around the cinnamon roll protein waffle, meal one option one. Meal plan number three.
The option is for one serving of the cinnamon roll waffle, three eggs, two yolks at 125 g of strawberry. It sounds like a large amount of food to eat. Just confirming I’m making one serving of the cinnamon protein waffle and then also eating three egg whites, two yolks and the strawberries with it. I didn’t know if the three egg whites and two yolks go into the cinnamon roll protein waffle also
Thank youYes, that sounds right. I would scramble those additional eggs and eat the fruit on it’s own as well.
As long as it’s just avocado I don’t see an issue.
Hey Maureen! That same recipe, what is the “LP” ? Salmon is under FP?
The LP FP and F and SC etc don’t necessarily pertain to certain foods in the recipe it’s more like when you look at the entire macros for it, those are the exchanges she thought were most appropriate. Unlike a simple meal. Each exchange designates a specific food
Re download the ebook. It’s there now.
Hi! Just got done with day one’s workout. Humbling to say the least! So my question is —I am coming off of a broken rib injury. They take forever to heal because we use the muscles around them so much. I don’t want to hinder the healing process and re injure it. The floor weight/ab combos are really painful on that side. For today I just stood back up and used my trx bands. But what should be doing instead?
If you felt good with the TRX go for it!!!
HELLO MY QUESTION IS WHAT IS THIS PHASE 1 AND PHASE 2 WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE? AND WHEN IS THAT YOU DO EACH?
Phase 1 is weeks 1-3 phase 2 is 4-6. Make sure you read the entire ebook. There is so much good info there.
