What's the difference between the 21 Day Fix and 21 Day Fix Extreme?

Haven't yet experienced the 21 Day Fix or 21 Day Fix Extreme? With the ability to lose 10-15 pounds in three weeks without starving makes these programs popular, how do you know which one is right for you?

This month the programs are on sale for $10 with a purchase of Shakeology!

Each program includes:

• Two DVDs with seven thirty minute workouts, and a free bonus DVD
• Nutrition Guide with seven portion control containers
• Workout Calendar
• 3-Day Quick Fix
• Eating Plan
• Shaker Cup
• 24/7 Online Support

The Challenge Pack contains all of the above, PLUS a 30-day supply of Shakeology (flavors of your choice)!

What’s the difference between the two?
21 Day Fix is THE fitness and nutrition program to help you lose up to 15 pounds in 21 days. Each workout is approximately 30 minutes a day, 7 days a week. The unique nutrition plan uses specifically portioned food storage containers that eliminate the guesswork from portion control - no weighing, measuring, or counting calories, carbs or points. If it fits in the container, you can eat it. And you'll lose weight. Both programs are based on easy-to-follow workout moves and simple portion control.

21 Day Fix EXTREME is a step up in intensity from 21 Day Fix.

Who are the programs for?

• 21 Day Fix - Everyone can do 21 Day Fix and get great results. Each workout has a modifier to show easier moves, and the moves can also be made more challenging. The test groups included fit people as well as people with 100+ pounds to lose, to be sure that anyone could be successful with this program.

• 21 Day Fix EXTREME is ideal for anyone with an athletic background, or for those with a dramatic short-term weight loss deadline--such as an upcoming vacation, photo shoot, or other big event. It's an excellent next step for 21 Day Fix graduates ready for a new challenge or graduates of other extreme programs like P90X, Insanity, and FOCUS T25. Fix EXTREME is also great for those who don't have much weight to lose, but want to get shredded and see abs; those with a "no BS" attitude toward workouts and nutrition; or anyone who doesn't want to count calories, weigh their food, or follow complicated recipes.

Workouts:

• 21 Day Fix: A total body fitness program. Each day has a different workout to make seven 30 minute workouts in one week. Each exercise has a modifier which makes these workouts perfect for those with any fitness ability.

• 21 Day Fix EXTREME is exactly like it sounds. It’s more intense. The workouts feature more variety and added resistance (even to Plyo). It’s just a heck of a lot tougher, and there’s still a modifier for every move. Fix EXTREME still uses simple boot camp style workouts for 30 minutes a day, 7 days a week, but at much higher intensity: most moves are weighted; breaks are shorter; there are more options to add intensity; and even the modified moves are more challenging. There’s a ton of resistance training in 21 Day Fix Extreme. 

Nutrition:

• 21 Day Fix: The 21 Day Fix nutrition plan is one of the easiest on the market. Since you eat
  
  everything in moderation – nothing is off-limits! Ingredients for your meals are easy to buy, a breeze to prepare and a joy to eat. Best of all, you can have Shakeology, since it counts as a protein. The 21 Day Fix portioned containers are measured out for the correct portions, so you don’t have to count calories. Simply put the food in the containers, that are easy to carry around when you’re on-the-go. For your convenience, they are dishwasher and microwave safe! Breast feeding? Vegetarian? Vegan? You can modify your meals to suit your needs, using the directions provided in the materials. Enjoy a treat a couple of times a week – as long as you don’t gorge yourself! Here is a sample of the 21 Day Fix meal plan.

• 21 Day Fix EXTREME: 21 Day Fix EXTREME takes the proven fitness and nutrition approach of the original to the next level with cleaner eating. Fix EXTREME's nutrition plan still uses simple portion control, but this time the eating is 100% clean: treats like wine or chocolate are no longer allowed; many less nutritious food options have been removed; there are new clean recipes; and Autumn's personal "Countdown to Competition" plan, designed to get anyone in competition-level shape in just 21 days, is a new option. Here is an example of the 21 Day Fix Extreme Meal Plan.

21 Day Fix & 21 Day Fix Extreme Program overviews

Follow your 30 minutes of fun workouts daily for best results. You will need a resistance band and dumbbells – 5 lbs and 10 lbs if you’re a beginner.

21 Day Fix is ideal for everyone from beginner-levels up, while 21 Day Fix Extreme is perfect for anyone who wants faster results and a more intense workout. The meal plans are simple and flexible and the workouts have modifiers, making it easy, even for obese individuals or beginners. However, it is also challenging enough for people of intermediate fitness levels. Men and women alike can benefit from the 21 Day Fix & 21 Day Fix Extreme programs.

SUCK IT UP so you don't have to SUCK IT IN

Are you ready for the beach or the pool? I know I want to feel confident in my bathing suit, instead of having to wear my cover up, or shorts over my suit.

I was tired of constantly having to figure out which outfit made me look "skinny" or feeling like my shorts and t-shirts were too tight. I was tired of sucking in my stomach to button my pants.

Enter 21 Day Fix and 21 Day Fix Extreme: two of my favorite programs! I sucked it up and changed my lifestyle, worked out for 30 minutes a day, and focused on my nutrition.

AND, I love food! I CAN NOT AND WILL NOT DIET. I love food and our bodies NEED quite a bit of food to function properly. These programs focus on healthy food choices, and a flexible lifestyle. There are recipes for brownies, cookies, and I was able to have a glass of wine or some chocolate chips once in a while! No one wants to feel deprived.

I've had INCREDIBLE results with both of the programs. They not only helped me tone up but they have taught me how to eat healthy without all of the complications of counting calories, trying to figure how portion sizes, and changed my lifestyle, and my family's lifestyle. No more sucking in my stomach!

I'm taking on 10 new clients. This will be a focus first on nutrition accountability group.
I'm going to get tough, because it's time for me to get serious, increase my workout intensity, and get back to basics with my portion sizes!

This group is PERFECT FOR SUMMER because:

• The recipes are super easy for your summer grilling pleasure.
• The recipes are light, quick and easy to follow.
• It's perfect for summer because, well, who doesn't want to feel confident in the fewer amount of clothes summer requires (and swim suits)??

So, I would like to introduce you to the EASIEST meal plan that is made for people
- on the go,
- with travel or vacation plans
- getting ready for summer
- who are READY TO CHANGE, but not sure how.

2. You purchase the 21 Day Fix challenge pack, 21 Day Fix Extreme challenge pack, or either of the kick start challenge packs of these programs, all on sale right now.

3. You are required to replace Shakeology with 1 meal each day for the very best results. My goal is to teach you how to plan and prepare the other meals of the day so that you get the results you are looking for. At the end of the 30 days the choice is yours to continue with Shakeology or not!

4. You must check in daily to the private online group to rate your day, be accountable and engage in the group discussion of the day.

What you can expect from me is meal planning help, choosing the foods you like, or that you require (works with any diet that is vegetarian, gluten-free, or dairy free), support, accountability, tips on how to eat while on vacation or summer travel, suggestions and advice on how to prevent emotional eating, and lots of inspiration and motivation.

Holiday Shape Up - Lose 10 to 20 pounds by 2016

Why wait until the New Year?
Most people gain 5 to 10 pounds over the holidays.
Do you want to start 2016 10 pounds heavier or 10 pounds lighter?

I'm going to "detox" from the Halloween sugar rush, and get my butt in gear, to rock my New Year's Eve outfit, and start 2016 in shape!

For the month of November I will be running a 30 day Holiday Shape Up. This is for people who are looking to lose up to 10 pounds in one month by stripping away the junk and the excuses that have been holding them back in the past. In this group I will teach you how to eat clean, how to stick to your plan and how to be a new happier healthier you.

It means you will commit to doing 30 minutes a day of exercise, working on meal plans and clean eating, drinking Shakeology daily (I call that my super power, give me so much energy) and promising to stay focused on the goals you are going to set for yourself. The journey you are about to begin is hard, don't make it harder by trying to do it alone.

If you stay true, this works. Really works.  It will make a difference. I promise you.
 
Isn't it time you take time for you? Isn't it time you feel good again?
Enough is enough!!
Enough with eating our way through the holidays, waiting until the New Year to focus on health and fitness.

I'm taking on 10 new clients. This will be a focus first on nutrition accountability group.

How does it work? 
1. We start on November 9 with an informational week, what I call "preseason" where I teach you how to meal plan and prep and give you tips to set you up for success.

3. Complete a 30 minute workout of your choice: 21 Day Fix, 21 Day Fix Extreme, or Cize (all on sale this month), PiYo, P90X3, or Insanity Max: 30.

4. Follow the nutrition plan that accompanies the workout program.

5. Engage and participate in the group (no lurking). It only takes a few minutes, but participation makes for better success.

Drop a Jean Size

It's hard to believe summer is over and September is here!

While I mostly stuck to my routine and kept up with my health and fitness goals I strayed a summer barbecues, picnics, and trips to the amusement park. One by one things have gotten away from me and while I can’t say I completely fell off the wagon I have been dangling on the side more times than I would like to admit!


It started with a Fourth of July party, a trip to the water park, a family reunion, a two-week road trip around New England, all tossed in with some weekend get-togethers, and ending with a week long celebration of my birthday, where there were THREE birthday cakes throughout the week!
Too many treats too often has caught up with me.
As a result, I haven’t been able to get up in the morning when I want to, I find myself tired in the afternoons and less productive which in turn makes me short with the kiddos and frustrated with myself. I don’t like that my once lose and comfortable blue jeans barely button and the confidence is slowly decreasing.
I mean it happens – I get it – but I don’t have to like it, and I have the power to change it.

My 80/20 goal has been more like a 60/40 reality, but the one positive that is staring me in the face:  I know EXACTLY what I need to do to succeed and what I need to do to get back to where I was.

• I know what works for me.
• I know how much the accountability of my challenge groups WORKS.
• I know preparation is the first step towards success.
• I know that if I follow the 21-day fix portion containers I WILL get RESULTS.
• And I know once I go a few days without the processed junk and added sugars the cravings will be gone with the help of Shakeology.
• I already know all this its just time to COMMIT and follow through!
• I'm going to start my 30-minute workouts doing a blend of the 21 Day Fix and PiYo program workouts.

My meal plan for the week is set and I’ll be grocery shopping tomorrow and the hubs and kids are board!


I know I can do it and you know what – so can YOU!


If you’ve been thinking about making a change, or if you’re like me and let the summer fun in the sun get the best of you don’t just give up…jump back on the horse and JOIN ME for my accountability group!

FALL IS HERE, and so is JEANS SEASON. 

And its time to get back to you, and get back into your blue jeans!

I will provide you with:
-Healthy quick meals
-Meal planning assistance
-Family friendly recipes
-Daily motivation and accountability

You will get:
-earn how to take care of YOU and be the best version of YOU

While it launches in seven days, in the meantime, five preview recipes have been released!  I made two tonight, (a main course and a side dish) which made a full dinner for the whole family, AND everyone enjoyed them! I made the Pineapple Chicken Skewers and the Quinoa Black Bean Salad, both of which are gluten free, dairy free, sugar free, AND egg free. I refuse to make separate dinners for everyone, and it's tough to please everyone, but this dinner did!  This was a WIN for mom!

21 Day Fix - FAQ's

Without a doubt the list below includes the most commonly asked questions I get about the 21-Day Fix.

It's one of the easiest programs to follow, the one I keep going back to, AND the usually the first program for most of my challengers! After completing a few rounds of this program, I see and think about my food in color coded containers (I can visualize recommended portion sizes) and I love helping others do the same.

The general rule of the 21 Day Fix nutrition portion is “If the food is on the list and it fits in the container you can eat it.” However, sometimes it's not so black and white, and a few foods have updated info.

Here, I’ll clarify some of the info about certain foods and answer the questions I commonly get her Youtube channel!
asked. In addition, Autumn Calabrese, the creator of the program, has quite a few helpful Q&A and interviews on


1. Should I prepare separate meals for the rest of my family?

• This is not a plan that makes more work for you! Why would you feed yourself healthy foods and the rest of your family unhealthy foods??? 
• Autumn hits the nail on the head with her Answer.

2. How to count PB2?

• While PB2 is lower in calories, all natural organic Peanut butter is a whole food and better for our bodies. It's creamier and tastes better. Whether you eat REAL peanut butter or PB2, either way – count it as a teaspoon. 
• See Autumn’s full response HERE.

3. Can I eat Quest Bars?

• If its not on the list – you can’t eat it!!!
• While they are not the worst thing you could eat, they’re not the best thing either. If you’re absolutely in a bind, okay, use sparingly, count as a treat (not red or yellow) but otherwise try making your own like these HIGH PROTEIN PEANUT BUTTER BARS.
• Here’s Autumns’s full Answer.

3. Kind bars

• These are one of the easiest “on the go” meals you can stash in your purse. However realize since they are more natural their shelf life is much shorter than others that are loaded with preservatives. 
• Here’s the thread Autumn responded to on her Facebook page.

 
4. Why not almond or coconut milk?

• The initial reasoning behind the limitations on the almond milk per the nutrition guide was because in general you don't want to drink your calories! 
• However Autumn did do an update in the Spring of 2015 where she shared that she will personally use up to 4 oz. of unsweetened almond and/or coconut milk and does not count it as a container. 
• So for all you almond milk in your Shakeo lovers out there, no more wasting yellows on the milk!

5. How to count egg whites

• About four egg whites fit in one red container. However from a serving size perspective and caloric equivalent four egg whites count towards half a red.
• Also, for most people the body can only process 20 grams of protein in one sitting. One egg white has about five grams of protein, so do the math.

6. How about coconut milk yogurt?

• Given that there is no protein and 12 carbs Autumn believes this should be counted as a yellow and not a red (as greek yogurt is.

7. Can I eat popcorn while on the Fix?

• YES!! If you're a popcorn lover like me, you’ll be a-okay on the 21-day fix!!! 
• Three cups of popped popcorn = 1 yellow. Talk about a hearty snack!!! Thank goodness, because I am a popcorn lover! 
• This does not include movie theater popcorn!!

8. Sugars and sweeteners

• Maple syrup, raw sugar and honey are covered on page 15 of your Nutrition Guide.

9. Butter – YES/NO?

• Yes – If its all natural and organic – count as tsp. 
• Check out the full Answer.

10. Why are peanuts blue AND orange?

• Ahhh – this one got me for the longest time. It comes down to chopped vs. whole.  
• Here’s Autumns full Answer.

11. Pregnant?

• As always – CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR FIRST – but yes, the low impact workouts are totally safe while pregnant and the meal plan is simply whole, natural foods – healthy for EVERYONE at every age – but ALWAYS check with you doctor first.

12. Breastfeeding?

• Same initial response as above. Check with your doctor!!! But my sister was breastfeeding when I started the 21-day fix and it was completely doable and her doctor agreed!
• However, breastfeeding mammas do need more calories and may need to bump up a bracket. As a general rule add about 300-500 calories to your daily caloric need that you calculated and follow the portions. 
• Here’s Autumns full response Answer.

13. Can I drink Shakeology while doing the 3 Day Quick Fix?

• While I hate going without my Shakeology, if you’re going to end the 21-day fix with the 3-Day Quick Fix then you must follow the plan exactly, which means NO Shakeo! Save it up and make some Shakeology mug cake or peanut butter cups for when the three days are over and resume on your second round!

14. I'm still HUNGRY!! What can I do?

• If you’re ‘starving’ after a few days you may need to re-evalute. If you’re super active at work, chasing kids, have long days, etc. you may need to follow adjust and try the calculation on page 76 of the guide. We are all different and react differently and listening to your body is important! 
• Same thing goes for those of you who may not be able to finish your meals.
• Here’s Autumn's Full answer

15. Should I change my calorie bracket when I can’t get workouts in?

• It depends. This is a lifestyle, a habit. NOT a diet that you do temporarily. 
• Here’s Autumns full Answer

16. How do I change My Fitness Pal to be a 21 Day Fix container tracker?

• From a computer, login. Settings > Diary Settings — change “Meal Names:” to container colors.

17. How frequently should you do the 10 minute AB workout?

• Abs are a tough muscle to exhaust. Per Autumn, you could do the 10-min ab fix daily but recommended to do at least 3-4 days a week to maximize your results.

18. How do you schedule the double workouts?

• Doubles week is recommended during days 15-21. It is recommended to do the workouts at 2 separate times of the day to maximize your metabolism and allow your body to rest in between as well as burn more calories. That being said if you can’t get them in at two different times, you can do them back to back.

19. HELP! I’m at a plateau – what do I do???

• I've been there! We all hit that point!!! You feel like no matter what you do, your body won't change! This is why coaches recommend pictures, measurements and weight to be taken at the start of the program. Some days the number on the scale isn’t changing but the inches are. And sometimes the inches are the same but the appearance is different. But I am living proof. Its a combination of all the visual changes with the way you feel that determines your success!!! But if you feel like you need to switch things up try these tips:

1. Eat from the top half of each list. The lists are organized in a hierarchy with the most beneficial at the top. For example looking at the greens you’ll see spinach at the top and while all veggies are “good” for you – those at the bottom of the lists certainly provide fewer benefits!
2. Add in the doubles week every 3rd week. This will switch things up a bit, add some extra calorie burn and jump start that metabolism for a second time during the day – maximizing your results! Or you can switch workout programs. Whether its a switch over the Extreme or something like PIYO – keep your body guessing!
3. Start your day with a workout!!! Set your alarm 30 minutes earlier – get up – drink a glass of water or E&E and get grooving!
4. Eat different foods. I am a creature of habit – I tend to eat the same things each week but peridically I will change things like removing my Greek yogurt bowls for a week or two and replacing with hard boiled eggs and fresh fruit or swapping quinoa for sweet potatoes or chicken for fish, etc… Your body gets used to the foods you’re fueling up with. Stick within the range of highly beneficial foods – but switch them up from time to time. This will keep your body guessing and results coming!

I hope you all found this list helpful! If you have a question that you didn’t see answered within please post in the comment section and I will do everything I can to find you an answer and update as we go!

I am a firm believer that anyone at any level can get amazing results with this program IF you’re willing to work for them! This is NOT A DIET! This is NOT STARVATION! It's just simple, easy, healthy LIVING!

Also, a new cookbook for the 21 Day Fix and 21 Day Fix Extreme is launching next week. Autumn FIXATE and it will be available in this month, but only through your Team Beachbody Coach! If you don’t already have a coach, you can create a free Beachbody account and be on the list for the first to know how and when to purchase it! I will be giving away 3 copies in a special offer.
will be releasing her cookbook

21 Day Fix Transformation Tuesday!

TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY from a challenger who became a coach because she had an amazing transformation and she had to share!!!

I hope this inspires you to get started today!!!!

Here is what Amanda had to say:

"This is a hard one. I've struggled with sharing my true before pictures because I didn't want to reveal how truly heavy I had let myself get. It's embarrassing and I didn't feel good about my physical self at all. I dressed to cover and hide in any way I could. Apparently I was doing a great job because I keep hearing from people "I never remember you being heavy" or "you were never big to begin with".

Well the proof is in the pudding. I was heavy. I'm 5'2" and at my heaviest I weighed... a lot for this little frame. I don't have "before" pics because I didn't let that happen. So instead I have these pictures from 2014 that were taken stealthily by excluding the one we posed for at Great Wolf Lodge. Even in that picture I was trying to cover as much as possible.

To think that I've changed my body this much blows me away. I wanted to share this because I want people to see that it can change. You can transform your arms, your hips, your abs after kids, after 30, almost 40... NOW.

Do it now.

I tried before to lose weight. I did Crossfit for 3 months of 5 day a week workouts, but I didn't change my eating. Then my coach introduced me to the 21 Day Fix and Shakeology, put me in an accountability group AND EVERYTHING changed. The containers, the clean eating, the Shakeology, the energy, the water and a whole lot of people holding me accountable.

Sharing this is hard. I've struggled for days about this. I hate these pictures of the old me. I won't let myself get there again.

YOU don't have to be uncomfortable with your physical self. My only tools were 21 Day Fix Extreme, Shakeology, 21 Day Fix, my accountability groups and my own sweat and yes, tears.

Now I'm paying it forward and helping anyone I can transform their life... yeah, it's really that profound. Everything is better and continues to just keep getting better. I'm 39 and I am in the absolute best shape of my life and I ACTUALLY AM WEARING A BIKINI!!!!"

I've had INCREDIBLE results with both of the programs. They not only helped me tone up but they have taught me how to eat healthy without all of the complications of counting calories, trying to figure how portion sizes, and not knowing what is ok to eat and what isn't!

I CAN NOT AND WILL NOT DIET. I love food and our bodies actually NEED quite a bit of food to function properly! These programs focus on healthy food choices, and the lifestyle that we all should be living!!! They have recipes for brownies, and I was able to have a glass of wine or some chocolate chips once in a while! Ummm, hello.. of course I was down for that!

On June 22, I'm starting a 30 Day support group for everyone doing this program. This will get us through the start of summer and teach you how to eat healthy, but keep the yummy taste of GOOD FOODS!

This group is PERFECT FOR SUMMER because:

The recipes are super easy for your summer grilling pleasure.
The recipes are light, quick and easy to follow.
It's perfect for summer because, well, who doesn't want to feel confident in the fewer amount of clothes summer requires (and swim suits)??

So, I would like to introduce you to the EASIEST meal plan that is made for people

- on the go,

- with travel or vacation plans

- getting ready for summer

- who are READY TO CHANGE, but not sure how.

How does it work?

1. You make me your coach by going to my Beachbody site and creating a free profile which makes me your COACH!

2. You purchase the 21 Day Fix challenge pack, 21 Day Fix Extreme challenge pack, or either of the kick start challenge packs of these programs, all on sale right now.

3. You are required to replace Shakeology with 1 meal each day for the very best results. My goal is to teach you how to plan and prepare the other meals of the day so that you get the results you are looking for. At the end of the 30 days the choice is yours to continue with Shakeology or not!

4. You must check in daily to the private online group to rate your day, be accountable and engage in the group discussion of the day.

That's it! You get to workout in your own home (only 30 minute workouts), but be connected to me 24/7 for support, fitness, recipes, nutrition and tips!

What you can expect from me is meal planning help, choosing the foods you like, or that you require (works with any diet that is vegetarian, gluten-free, or dairy free), support, accountability, tips on how to eat while on vacation or summer travel, suggestions and advice on how to prevent emotional eating, and lots of inspiration and motivation.

21 Day Fix: Fixate Cookbook

The Fixate Cookbook Launch!
Yep, you read this right! To take the guesswork out of how many containers are in your favorite recipes, Autumn Calabrese, creator of the 21 Day Fix is launching a new cook book called Fixate.  It includes 101 Fix friendly recipes and will be available on July 14!

Fixate will teach you how to make healthy, delicious meals that fit into your busy lifestyle. And every recipe includes container equivalents to use with 21 Day Fix, as well as nutritional information you can use with any Beachbody fitness program. So what inspired Autumn to assemble this culinary masterpiece?

Each of the recipes comes complete with detailed instructions, mouthwatering photos, nutritional information and container equivalents. What's more, Autumn has added icons to each recipe that will let readers know if they are paleo, gluten-free, vegan and vegetarian.

Who this is for?
"This book is for everybody," says Autumn. "You don't have to be graduates of 21 Day Fix or 21 Day Fix EXTREME^®. You also don't have to be a chef or great in the kitchen. It's for anyone who wants to make healthier versions of the foods they love."
According to Autumn, "Everyone will use the book differently. For some, it will become their "go-to" cookbook they use every single day. Others may use it when they're going to a special event like a barbeque or party."
And in addition to all the amazing recipes, Autumn has also included a detailed checklist for her absolute must-have kitchen and pantry staples, as well as the basic utensils and tools that every cook needs.

 

What to Expect

Inside Fixate you'll find a section for every possible meal you can imagine: simple breakfasts, on-the-go lunches, sit down dinners, soups, salads, as well as healthy snacks like kale chips and protein bars.
Autumn insisted that all the "on-the-go" lunch recipes be easy and fast for working moms. "I based all of the lunches off leftovers from dinner and even breakfast," she reveals. "I turned them into delicious, easy-to-make lunch recipes." Autumn adds, "I also included a few of my favorite Shakeology recipes—even some Fix-approved skinny cocktails."
And then there's the desserts. "I have a big sweet tooth so I was really pleased with them," she says. "I especially love the brownies (made with chick peas), peanut butter cookies and cake recipes, and the desserts are all gluten-free so absolutely everyone can enjoy them."


And it gets even better!!! 
IF you are one of the first THREE people to purchase one of the following from me this month and you will receive the cookbook from me, for FREE when it is released, mid-July!

Spring Slim-Down Challenge - 21 Day Fix or 21 Day Fix Extreme?

You know that warm weather, Easter, spring break, summer vacations are all going to be here before you know it! Trust me it takes longer than 2 weeks to get off the weight you put on over the winter months! Or maybe the weight you have gained over the past few years.

Enough. Is enough.  It is time to make yourself a priority!! Being busy isn’t an excuse. Work, household chores, to-do lists, they will always be there, but your health, your happiness, your feeling of energetic wellness will not.

I am looking for 10 women that are ready to kick their nutrition and fitness up a notch to get some extreme results in my Spring Slim Down Challenge! Ten women that I can mentor 1:1 and support to help you reach your health and fitness goals and to truly feel your best this year! It's not about perfection, it’s about taking your once bad habits and making them into healthier habits that you can have for a lifetime!

Is your daily fitness and nutrition where you want to be? Are you close or really fallen off the wagon? I can help you either way you answered those questions. If you are feeling completely lost with your health and fitness goals then consider trying the 21-Day Fix. For 21 days you will practice clean eating, exercise and overall well being supported by my personal motivation, fitness tips, and meal planning tips for you.  During this time you will learn portion control and healthy habits. Most of my challengers tend to lose between 5 – 10 lbs during the first 21 days and continue to lose more the longer they implement these habits.

Now if you're already in great shape or are have completed another Beachbody programs. The 21 Day Fix Extreme is a new program, and it will take your fitness to a higher level. The program still emphasizes portion control and exercise, but the workouts increase in intensity and focuses on strength training with each of the workouts. If you want to “lean out” and get clear muscle definition, consider this program. 

On Monday, March 16^th I will launch two accountability groups: one for those looking to go Extreme with the 21-Day Fix, and one for those wanting to embark on a new lifestyle. The program will last for 21 days. You can do anything for 21 days! Pick your Fix and join me. Are you in?
