Is low sodium V8 juice ok to drink ? Also the fruits on the meal plan. What happens if you don’t get enough of those ? One of those rare people that do not like fruit, I do like pineapple but the amounts on the list is way to much pineapple to eat 🙂
It looks like it adds 8g extra carbs per serving. I would try and eat those carbs instead of drinking them tbh. I get it that you don’t like fruit. You can eat another carb in place of that if you want and eat how much pineapple you can stand.
Mine will not open. That’s why I asked the question.
What won’t open? you can’t watch the video?
I cannot download the book to my phone.
Please help need step by stepclick on challenge ebook (top line where found the forums) and when you scroll down you will see a video that says mobile download instructions. Watch that.
I am following meal plan 2 I am 5’6’’. Am super hungry with no plan. I was eating low carb, moderate protein and high fat before and same calories. Will this adjust? I am not use to being hungry consuming 1700 calories.
Hi there, iT might adjust. You are only on day 3 so give it a minute. If it doesn’t, maybe you should be in the next meal plan if you feel like you want to eat your arm off.
Hey Shauna, if you take notice, at the very bottom of the AMRAP, it give you a 30 sec recovery, so it all adds up to 12 mins total w the rest each round.
Also, if you tap on each exercise, it will take you to a video demonstration, and the warm up is the same as well. Wishing you all the best in the challenge!Thank you for the thoughtful answer!
Hi! Thanks for the reply!
I am not yet diagnosed with specifics just assumptions, since the xray did not show anything- in line for MR 🙁 There are 3 possible outcomes (small broken piece of the disc – atroscopic surgery, a tear or….) but I will only know for sure after the challenge is over.Swimming is unfortunately not an option I don’t have any options nearby to fit into my schedule.
I am trying echobike, or shorter hiit but low impact. The longer the duration the worse it gets. Same for the dog walks :/
I wonder if I could just do low impact hiit for all cardio sessions and still get results?
Many thanks,
AnettIf that’s what you can do, then do that. You have to know your limits and work within those. You’ve got this
I have bad knees and I noticed tomorrow is all squats. Any alternative exercises to these? Any advice is appreciated. I would like to do get all my workouts in.
I answered you in the other thread
Hello
The gym I’m at does not have band assist pull ups but they have a weight assist pull up. Are the band assist pull ups better and I should buy a band and find another place to do them?
You can use the weight assist machine that’s fine. Band assisted feels more legit but work with what you have.
Jodie,
Thank you for asking this kind of question! I’m trying to stretch my food with what I have until paycheck this Friday. Mine question is the same as yours but other way around. Good to know, I can do this concept.
Maureen, thanks for pointing out the macros cuz I was wondering about that. Y’all rock!!!
Youre welcome. Work with what you have 🙂
Hello,
Was reading through the pages and this statement confused me, “ I’ve marked days for those other 30-minute cardio sessions on the Program Calendar here, but shoe can be done whenever you can fit them in. For best results, I do recommend doing them on workout days that don’t include the cardio finishers.”
I’d like to ask what cardio to do for Day 1. I missed Day 1 and am pushing back Day 1 to today as advised.
She is giving you a recommended day to do those 30 min cardio days but it’s ok if you fit them in on other days. Her recommendation is to try and do them on the days without cardio finishers so you are too smoked after the workout. She is just giving you guidelines if you can’t follow the schedule 100%
Went to buy some maple syrup for the recipe and dang it’s so expensive. I can’t pay 9.00 for it so I got log cabin. Will this be ok or will it be wonky? I don’t think it will be as thick as real maple so can I add a smidgen of honey to thicken?
Im sure it’s fine. Don’t stress
Please email [email protected] and they can possibly tell you when things will be back in stock
Hello! I was seeing if I could substitute this non dairy yogurt for Greek yogurt?
Do the macros compare to what you would buy in the greek? Then yes 🙂
Is it available yet? 🤞
you can email [email protected]. they would know when it might be back if it’s not
Do you prefer we have a meal prior to working out?
Also what is the time frame you’d like us to have completed our last meal and time to restart the next day?Nicole suggests if you are comfortable eating prior to training go for it. If you aren’t used to it and want to try it, eat 1/2 before, post workout after and other 1/2 a bit after that. There isn’t a cut off to stop eating.
In the substitution list it says starchy carbs are 25g carbs, and veggies are 10g of carbs. Could I replace 1 SC with 2.5 veg? Or would I be better to just calculate the macros/calories myself for that meal? I am a veggie lover!
Im sure that would be ok. If you are super savvy with macros you might want to double check. I wouldn’t want you to be super low carb. Remember the numbers with exchanges aren’t exact.
Can somebody check this out it has for the spaghetti squash casserole. It states one serving is.
2 v, 1/2 F,P
V 100 grams lettuce spring mix
1/2 v cucumbers
F
OC
I am just clarifying that would mean three vegetables total one and a half fats and one protein is that accurate?Double checking with Nicole now
Hi! Both supplements Power Train and Power Burn say consume prior to exercise. Can they be mixed together? As in consumed all at once or is that too much? And if it is too much, what is the recommendation?
Thanky you! Second challenge, first time utilizing supplements.
Hi there,
I would take Train prior to strength. You can take burn prior to as well or even cardio. Utilize it like when you need more energy. I wouldn’t take it past 3pm…if you are sensitive to caffeine it might keep you up like you drank some coffee. That’s how I use them.I think what happened was the email said the call was last night, but when you clicked the link it said today. We will be sending the replay out today if you missed it. Make sure you are signed up for Marco Polo to get the daily video messages and notifications.

Hi! Sorry it’s not on the plan I just wasn’t sure if I wanted to use it as an exchange how I could incorporate it. I use it normally in place of noodles for some things. Thank you.
If you aren’t skilled with tracking macro numbers etc. I would stick to the exchange list that Nicole has provided for you. It makes it easier and you don’t have to figure out how and where something can work.
