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!
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.
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
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.
Question – I am just under 5’4 and holding about 158. Which meal plan do I use? Do I understand that it’s 5 meals per day?
Go by your height if both your height and weight don’t fall in the same category.
I am following meal 3 plan. Wondering if it is ok to rotate in a vegan meal here and there? The macros and calories are the same…so I am guessing this is ok but just wanted to verify. Thank you so much!
Yes you can!!!
Hello, would you please confirm the yogurt serving size? 12 ozs of yorgur for one serving, seems like a lot.thank you
Is this just in the exchange list or are you referring to a recipe?
Hola!
Maybe I am overthinking this but… let’s say for Meal Plan – Phase I Weeks 1-3:
For Meal 3 – Why does Option 2 have more food in it, or am I missing something?
Also, why and what kind of butter, I only eat “I can’t believe it’s butter.” Just wondering…would you happen to have the caloric value for each food item? I can look them up, but just wondering if you had it, I could save a lot of time. 🙂
Some of the foods might not be as caloric impactful so you can eat more in that particular meal. But they all are very close to the target macros for your meal plan.
Just regular butter or a grass fed butter is always good as well. That caloric value for each item is not in the challenge. They are just in the major macro categories that they fit the best. Nicole already did the work for you, just use the exchange list if you don’t want to eat whats there. You don’t have to calculate anything.
