Hi Julie- try to keep the workouts in the same order as Nicole has them written in the challenge. She has strategically placed them in the order they are for optimal rest between specific muscle groups. Working out 5 days in a row is fine, but just keep the workouts in order 😉
Good luck with the rest of the challenge!
Ok awesome 😉
Hi Wendy- yep, that should be fine 🙂
Hi Heather- no, there is no cut-off time for your last meal. It can be 10pm if necessary 😉
That is correct, yes 🙂
You can use either bar 😉
Correct 😉 All 7 sets on one leg first, the idea is to have minimal rest for the muscle you’re working. If you switched legs between each set, it would defeat the purpose of the intensity technique.
Good luck!
Awesome, no problem! Enjoy!! 😉
83g is about 3oz and meat looses quite a bit of weight after cooking. You’re good 🙂
GREAT JOB!!! Keep it up 🙂
Hi Kelli- as Nicole has mentioned several times throughout the Nutrition Portion of the program, you can choose any meal and have in any order (except the post workout meal) because the calories and macros are the same for all meals except pos-workout meal/meal 5.
I hope you read all of the info carefully and watched all the videos so that you didn’t miss any important info! Good luck with the challenge.
Hey there! I find the most efficient way is to:
1. go grocery shopping a day or two before your meal prep day so that you have everything already and can plan in your head how you are going to tackle meal prep
2. figure out what foods or dishes can be cooking while you are prepping something else. In other words, try and figure out how you can be cooking prepping as many foods/dishes at once for time efficiency. For example, you can have one dish in the oven, another in a crock pot (if you are using a crock pot for anything, and several items on the stove while you are chopping or mixing, etc.I hope this helps, good luck and let us know how it goes! 🙂
Hi Rebecca- try keeping your hips a little lower, engaging your lower abs and tucking or rounding your hips and lower back forward. This may help prevent your hips from taking over. Good luck with the challenge!
Hi Lauren- I would do another round to equal closer to 31 min 😉 Good luck with the challenge!
Hey there- it is in regards to each arm 🙂 Good luck with the challenge!
Hey there- it’s a trig-set at the bottom of the workout: https://176p3x1o5f5d19fpdxw83g5v-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/images/2019/02/2019_BUNSGUNS_Training_WK1357-04.jpg
Hi Glenda- one twizzler should be about 35-45g and I believe Nicole calculated the macros with just the traditional flavor 😉 Good luck!!
3 whole eggs comes out to between 10-15g of fat depending on the size of the egg. As long as you are within 5g above or below the goal macros, you are good. Nicole calculated all of the macros for the meals to add up to the goal totals knowing there might be some slight discrepancies.
I hope this helps, good luck with the challenge! 🙂
Nicole advises that you follow the meal plan as she has it written out, as she has adjusted everything according to the calorie/macro totals she provides at the bottom of each meal plan. As long as you are within 5 grams above or below the goal, you are good! 🙂
Good luck with the challenge!
Hi Stephanie- the macro breakdowns for all of the meals are provided at the very bottom of each meal document. Good luck!
That is correct 😉 2 TBS for the whole recipe 😀
You can choose any of the meals in the plan, but there are specific rules for the post workout meal. Please read all of the info and watch the video in the Nutrition Section 🙂
Good luck with the challenge!
Hi Janna- no, do not add any exercises from the home workouts to your gym workouts. The exercises will be slightly different since the home workouts do not include gym equipment. If you notice, there aren’t leg presses on the home workout because generally people don’t have access to a leg press at home, so there are other exercises to substitute exercises that require gym equipment.
Just follow one or the other, either the gym workout or the home workout, but don’t mix and match exercises from both or else you may be over-doing some of the exercises or muscle groups and missing other muscle groups.
I hope this make sense, good luck!
I think you answered your own question 😉 It’s not ideal, but it’s fine. Good luck!
Hi Janna- no, Nicole does not want the order of training days switched. She has them in he order they are for a reason 😉
If you need to move the rest days to other days, for example workout 5 days in a row and have the weekend off, that is fine. But keep the order of the workout days the same. Also, if you do end up moving your rest days, keep the high carb/low carb days the same. Don’t move them around, even if you workout on a different day. Nicole has the cycle spread out the way that it is so that the high carb/low carb days are a certain number of days a part for optimal reposes to this carb cycle.
Good luck!
