Welcome to the first day of the six week challenge!
Each day for the next six weeks I will be posting a new workout for you to follow and giving you a simple step by step guide to take control of your eating habits.
The aim of the programme is to make a big difference to your body in the next six weeks. Follow the advice given, work HARD during your training sessions and you WILL have a body ready for the beach in just six weeks time...
The Workouts
Each day a new workout will be posted here. The majority of the exercises will require absolutely no equipment and for those that do there will be alternative options. The idea is to make the programme as simple as possible for you.
Bodyweight exercises can be performed anywhere so there is NO EXCUSE for you not being able to follow the programme.
The format
Each workout consists of 8 exercises. You will perform each exercise for 20 seconds and then rest for 10 seconds before moving on to the next exercise. This means that the 8 exercise circuit will take you just 4 minutes to complete.
The aim is to complete each circuit at least twice and to build up to performing it 3 - 4 times, resting for 1 minute between each circuit.
That's a maximum of 16 minutes worth of exercise per day - THAT'S IT!
The key is to push yourself as hard as you can during that 20 seconds of work.
During the programme I will be posting pictures and videos to illustrate the exercises - unfortunately they aren't ready for today.
The Exercises
Squats
Press-ups
Step-ups
Reverse curls
Lunges
Dips
Burpees
Star Jumps
Day One - Nutrition
Your aim is to cut out all fluids from your diet except water!
The average fizzy drink contains around 10 teaspoons of sugar!
Fruit juice is a better option but still loaded with sugar - yes it may be natural and have some vitamins but it is still sugar.
As for caffeine - we will discuss this later...
Your challenge for day 1 is to JUST DRINK WATER!
See you tomorrow!
