ModeratorHey there- go to the challenge link, scroll down to the nutrition tab, click on it and read all the info/watch all the videos. You will see the meal plans and recipes on that page but I highly recommend reading ALL the info so you don’t miss anything important.
Good luck! ☺
Naomi
ModeratorHey there! I can understand why you might be unsure about what to do, but I would recommend following the meal plan recommended for your height for this challenge ?☺
Naomi
ModeratorChristine- choose your meal plan based on your height. Meat and rice are measured cooked ??
Naomi
ModeratorYes ??
Naomi
ModeratorHey there- let me get back to you in just a few minutes! Thank you!! 🙂
Naomi
ModeratorYes, we can only answer questions regarding exercises and nutrition for this challenge, but technical issues should be addressed to [email protected] 😉
Naomi
ModeratorHey there- any brand will do, and just pick plain old refried beans. Nothing fancy 🙂

ModeratorHi Tammy-
1. The days you do HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training), you can choose from any of the cardio exercises suggested, or you can do your own as long as it follows the cardio outline: no loner than 30 min per session, no more than 3 sessions per week and NOT fasted 😉
2. Doing Orange Theory Fitness would take you way beyond the cardio guidelines mentioned above for the Muscle Up Challenge goal of building muscle, correct 😉
I hope this helps! Have a great challenge 😀
Naomi
ModeratorWe are so glad you are happy with the program! Have a great challenge, and we can’t wait to see your success! 😀
Naomi
ModeratorHi Sandra- no, there isn’t an exchange list for this challenge, but there are 12 meal options to choose from 🙂
Naomi
ModeratorSorry about that ladies — it’s now posted! 😉

ModeratorHey there- the broccoli and asparagus can be switched, but the almonds have a different caloric and macro profile than cashews or pecans. If you are tracking everything in a food journal, such as My Fitness Pal, and you are sticking to the calories and macros as outlined in the program you can substitute a food for another food of a similar profile if you don’t like a specific food (such as cashews). But we recommend sticking as close to the meal plan as possible for best results 🙂
Naomi
ModeratorHi Michelle- we’re looking into this now and will reply in just a few minutes 🙂 Thank you!
Naomi
ModeratorHi Melissa- the supplement recommendation is: 5-10g, up to three times a day. The most important time is during or around (before/after) your workout. If you are already consuming 8.8g pre day in your protein shake, you don’t need to take in any additional but you could (for example, take 5g before our workout) which wouldn’t put you over the recommendations.
I hope this helps! Good luck 🙂
Naomi
ModeratorHi Julie- yes, I would recommend jumping to the men’s meal plan. You don’t want to eat less calories than you’ve been eating the last 6 months for sure 😉
Naomi
ModeratorYes, as long as it isn’t too intense lol! It should be good for recovery 😉
Naomi
ModeratorHi there- please email any technical issues you are having to: [email protected]
Tech support will be able to view your account and see what problems you might be experiencing. Thank you.
Naomi
ModeratorHi Wendy- please email [email protected] and we will email you the 60 day challenge program 🙂
Naomi
ModeratorHi Kristin- the number of participants in each challenge is not disclosed 😉
Naomi
ModeratorIf you decide to do the next challenge or not, you can still choose from any of the suggested options. Which route you choose will be different for individuals depending on:
– your goals
– how your body is responding
– what is realistic for your lifestyle (schedule, etc)🙂
Naomi
ModeratorHey ladies-
If you are doing the Muscle Up Challenge, here is what Nicole suggests:
– You can continue with Phase 2 and slowly reverse diet until the Muscle Up Challenge begins (slowly increasing your calories as explained here and decrease your cardio)
– You can go back to Phase 1 nutrition plan of the 60 Day Challenge and follow workouts for Phase 1 as well.I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions! 😀
Naomi
ModeratorHey there- we’ve had a few entries like that, yes 🙂
Naomi
ModeratorLOL, no problem, good luck!! 😀
Naomi
