Welcome to the Bikini Body Burn 12 Week Guide! I started Moana Bikini in 2011. Over time it has become more than just a bikini label, it has become a lifestyle. Moana girls are fit, confident, energised and above all else - in love with life. Over the past few years I have received lots of emails asking what I did to keep in shape. On the outside I looked okay, but inside I lacked energy and struggled with my diet. I felt a lot of pressure to look a certain way. I thought eating less and doing a lot of cardio exercise was the way to get that perfect bikini body. I was afraid of lifting weights in case I looked too bulky. I was also confused about what to eat, how could I not be with so many fad diets and pills around! In early 2015, I met Simon from Starke Fitness and started training with him three times a week. © Bikini Body Burn Pty Ltd 2015

Simon educated me about ‘skinny fat’ and explained that lifting weights actually helps you burn fat. He also taught me about eating the right foods in the right quantities. I found myself getting fitter and really looking forward to each training session. I now train with him four times a week and cannot wait for each session! Looking back, I realise that I was eating the wrong foods and wasn’t eating close to enough. After months of training at Starke Fitness and following Simon’s nutrition advice, I am fitter and more confident than ever and happier within myself. I am back to being my Moana girl best! I know that so many other Moana girls are as confused as I used to be. I discussed my concerns with Simon, and after months of planning, Bikini Body Burn was born which resulted in the production of this 12 Week Guide. I am so proud to be a small part of your journey to become a better Moana girl!

To share your journey with me and other Moana girls, upload your pics to Instagram and tag #bikinibodyburn and #moanagirls. Good luck – chase the best version of a Moana girl that you can be!

Message from simon owner of starke fitness Congratulations on taking the step to becoming a healthier and fitter version of you! I am the owner of Starke Fitness, a gym located on the Gold Coast in Australia. I have a diploma in Exercise Science and have been a health and fitness coach for over 15 years (I know, that’s a long time!). I was born in New Zealand and have lived on the Gold Coast since 2008. I am very happily married to Tammi, have the best little girl called Lola Mae and educating people on health and fitness is my lifelong passion; over the years I have been fortunate to help thousands of clients reach their goals. I am proud to call myself Karina’s trainer; she has changed her life and is reaping the benefits. Every session that Karina does, she gives 100% - she is a very hard worker. And like anything in life, results come to those who apply themselves. © Bikini Body Burn Pty Ltd 2015

This 12 Week Guide is what Karina has been following for months. She has tried and tested all the workouts and followed the nutrition guide – she is proof that this 12 Week Guide works! You might already be slim, but if you aren’t active and healthy I bet that you are what I call ‘skinny fat’. Skinny fat is when you are not overweight and look good in loose fitting clothes, but when in revealing or tighter clothes your lack of lean muscle reveals a shapeless saggy look. If you are skinny fat, there is also more than likely a layer of fat around your organs, which may cause you major health problems.

If not skinny fat, you might be a cardio addict like Sad Sally, or know a Sad Sally. It is my personal mission to educate as many people as possible on the downside of too much cardio and not enough weight training. By buying this 12 Week Guide you have assisted with that mission – thank you! Karina has changed her life by following this 12 Week Guide. Now it’s your turn to change your life. Ready, set, booty! Good luck!

Simon

now it’s your turn to change your life © Bikini Body Burn Pty Ltd 2015

are you a Sad Sally? Sally wanted to lose some weight and change her body shape to look good in a bikini. She thought the best way to achieve this was to increase the amount of cardio exercise she had been doing. Sally started running five kilometers four times a week and did an hour on the x-trainer at the gym once a week. She also decreased her calories by eating a lot less than she normally would. At the end of the first week, Sally weighed herself and was very excited to see that she had lost 3 kilos! Yay, she was a happy Sally! So she kept up her cardio workouts and calorie restriction.

At the end of the third week, Sally weighed herself and discovered that she had not lost any weight at all. At the end of the fourth week, she also had not lost any more weight. Disheartened and wondering what she was doing wrong after getting such great results at the start, Sally gave up her cardio. At the end of the fifth week, Sally weighed herself out of interest. She was shocked to see that she had put 3.5 kilos back on, even though she had not increased her calorie intake. Her body shape was also ‘softer’, not the leaner look she was hoping for. She was a very Sad Sally.

At the end of the second week, Sally weighed herself and was surprised to see that she had only lost 500 grams. She thought she must not have worked hard enough, so she increased her cardio even more. © Bikini Body Burn Pty Ltd 2015

Sally thought that she was doing the right thing, but increasing cardio and restricting calories burnt away her muscle, making her shape look worse. Sally thought she had burnt fat as she had lost weight, but she had actually lost muscle. By burning her muscle she took away her body’s natural ability to burn fat. She stopped losing weight as her body got to a point where it wanted to conserve muscle, as the body needs muscle in order to function.

Sally thought that she was doing the right thing because she lost weight in the first week. She wanted to be a fit and happy Sally, but she did not know how to go about achieving her goal. Most girls can relate to Sad Sally’s story.

If you are one of those girls, say farewell to feeling sad and hello to a happier, healthier and leaner version of yourself!


OVERVIEW OF THE 12 WEEK GUIDE Welcome to the Bikini Body Burn12 Week Guide!! Over 12 weeks you will develop a lifestyle that will have you looking and feeling ahhmazing. Bring. It. On! Health guides generally focus on counting calories. We don’t! We focus on educating you to eat the right type of calories. There are calories from fat, calories from carbohydrates, calories from protein; all have a different nutrient content. Eating 100 grams of carbohydrates will have a different effect on your body than eating 100 grams of protein. We have developed this 12 Week Guide to educate you about what to eat when and to assist you to develop ongoing exercise habits that you can carry on with after the 12 weeks have finished. We established Bikini Body Burn to teach you the steps to change your life!


The content has been split into two sections:

Preparation: everything

that you need to do and understand before you start the 12 weeks and

The 12 Week GuidE: which has been split into:

Ready Phase - weeks 1 - 2: developed to reset where your body draws energy from and to introduce you to the Bikini Body Burn style of workouts.

Set Phase - weeks 3 - 6: developed to train your body where to draw energy from and introduce you to strength training.

Booty phase - weeks 7 - 12: developed to teach you ongoing and sustainable eating habits and to increase the intensity of the workouts to change the shape of your body.

how to prepare

“you might not always get what you want, but you always get what you expect.”

Set your expectations If you expect to succeed and get great results from this 12 Week Guide, then you will! Which is why it is so important to define what you expect to achieve from the 12 weeks.

- charles h. spurgeon Revisit your expectations throughout the 12 weeks to remind yourself of what you will achieve at the end of the 12 weeks.

at the end of the 12 weeks i will: • • • • • • • • © Bikini Body Burn Pty Ltd 2015

at the end of the 12 weeks i will:

how to prepare

Below were Karina’s expectations at the start of her training. Emphasis on ‘were’ as they are now her reality as she achieved her expectations.

• Be more confident • Feel comfortable in my own skin • Have strengthened my body • Have improved my all round fitness • Have tightened and toned my body • Have a better understanding of nutrition and have put that understanding into play to improve my general wellbeing


15

The number one thing that is going to stop you from achieving your expectations is…... YOU! Improving your health and fitness requires one thing change. Change is hard. If you are not ready to change, you won’t. So prepare yourself, focus on your expectations and the end result. If you fall off track it's ok, just get back on track! If you missed a workout because you wanted to sleep in or let your cravings get the better of you, it is not the end of the world. Go back over your expectations and get yourself back on track.

Another obstacle that you may encounter is other people. It is really important that when you start a journey to get the bikini body of your dreams that you have the support of people around you.

how to prepare

What are some of the things that could stop me achieving my expectations?

You do not want to be sitting at dinner having a nutritious meal that you made for yourself, while the rest of your family is having a burger, saying to you “what are you eating that crap for?” Having the support of those closest to you is really important. So get your support crew ready - get your friends onboard and use Instagram to find like-minded girls to help push you through the 12 weeks.

There are three ways to track your progress: 1 Comparing body measurements 2 Comparing before and after photos and 3 Measuring your weight

how to prepare

How to track your progress

Our favourite method to track your progress is through body measurements; the second is through photos. Unless your goal is to lose weight, we are not huge fans of measuring your weight. Why? Because resistance training generally causes you to lose fat and gain muscle. If you are slim to start with, you may put on more weight in muscle than you will lose in fat, and could therefore weigh more at the end of the 12 weeks. When Karina completed the 12 week program, her weight stayed the same; however, her measurements changed drastically. Her waist measurement decreased and her booty measurement increased.

Tip Get enough sleep A lack of sleep increases cortisol, decreases leptin (your appetite suppressing hormone) and increases ghrelin (the hormone that increases hunger). A lack of sleep greatly decreases your ability to recover from exercise and grow muscle, not to mention the stress it puts on your immune system. Aim for eight hours a night. © Bikini Body Burn Pty Ltd 2015

17

how to prepare

How should I take photos? HERE ARE SOME TIPS FOR TAKING BEFORE AND AFTER PHOTOS • Have somebody else take the picture for you • Make sure it is a full body shot • Stand with your feet together and your hands at your sides • Take a photo from the front, from the side and of course that behind booty shot • Take photos at the start of week one, at the start of week seven and at the end of week twelve • Wear the same outfit in all of the photos • Choose something that shows off your body (such as a bikini)

Tip Avoid weighing yourself, taking measurements and/ or photos during ‘that time’ of the month. Most girls put on weight during that period (ahm, pun totally intended) and can bloat, which can distort measurements.

What if I do want to record my weight? By all means go for it!

HERE ARE SOME TIPS FOR WEIGHTING YOURSELF • Weigh yourself at the same time every day, we recommend first thing in the morning before eating • Always use the same scales • Do not become a slave to the scales, we recommend that you weigh in no more than every two weeks • Remove your shoes and any heavy clothing or jewelry © Bikini Body Burn Pty Ltd 2015

how to prepare

Write your results below at the start, half way and at the end of the 12 weeks. Imagine how exciting it will be to see your results at the end!

Arm Chest Stomach Booty Upper Leg Calf

What if my measurements increase? During the 12 weeks your measurements may increase, particularly in the booty. If you are slim to start with, they are obviously going to increase. However, if you have a slight winter coat, they should decrease.

Tip

Workout with a friend - call your bestie, your sister, your Mum, your bestie’s sister, your sisters friends... Call everyone! The more girls you have doing the 12 Week Guide with you, the more motivation and encouragement you will have! And then at the end of the 12 weeks you will not only look and feel amazing, but will have developed closer relationships with the girls you went through it with.

If they do increase, don't stress, remember to use achieving your expectations as your unit of measurement.

UNDERSTANDING NUTRITION

you can train the house down, but if you aren’t eating the right nutrition your hard work

Nutritional Guidance Have you heard the saying ‘abs are made in the kitchen’? Well guess what, it’s true! If you overeat, under eat or don’t eat the right combination of foods, you are going to have a very average bikini body. You can train the house down, but if you aren’t eating the right nutrition your hard work will be for nothing.

Can you provide a meal plan? We would love to provide you with a meal plan, but unfortunately we cannot. To provide a meal plan we would need to sit down with

will be for nothing. you in person and understand your expectations. Don’t get us wrong, we would LOVE to meet you! But meeting thousands of ‘you’ all over the world is sadly not possible. So… unless you live on the Gold Coast (if you do come and see us!) we cannot provide you with a meal plan. BUT we can provide you with nutritional guidance, which we do in the 12 Week Guide. But first, you need to learn about the three types of nutrients that will form the basis of your diet over the next 12 weeks: protein, carbohydrates and fats.


21

Protein is the body’s building block. All of your organs, skin, hair and muscles are built from protein. Consuming protein is essential to muscle growth and recovery. Protein is a molecule that is broken down into amino acids. The body needs 20 amino acids to form a protein molecule in the body. Eleven of these amino acids can be created by the body, however there are nine ‘essential’ amino acids that the body cannot create. The only way to receive the nine essential amino acids is through the consumption of nutrients. Almost all meat, fish, poultry and egg products contain high amounts of all nine amino acids. During the 12 weeks, you will consume protein at every meal to ensure that your body has the building blocks to repair itself after a workout and build lean muscle. In other words, if you eat protein you are going to look hot in your bikini!

What if I’m a vegan or vegetarian? You can receive the nine essential amino acids from vegetables, legumes and dairy, but they are in such

understanding nutrition

Protein

small doses that your body will not be able to build muscle as effectively as if you consumed animal-based protein rich foods. Legumes are also generally much higher in carbohydrates; hence, the benefit of eating them for their protein content is lessened due to their high carbohydrate content.


22


Carbohydrates Carbohydrates can be broken into two terms:

simple Simple carbohydrates contain sugars that give your body a short burst of energy. Examples: • fruit • cake • jam • soft drink • chocolate

Complex Complex carbohydrates contain chains of sugar molecules which take longer for your body to burn, and therefore release energy slowly. Examples: • sweet potato • brown rice • bread • oats • lentils • beans • quinoa

Simple carbs are turned to glucose for energy quickly; and if not used, that glucose stores as fat. Complex carbs are processed much slower and therefore release energy slowly, but again if that energy is not used, the glucose stores as fat. During the 12 weeks, you will consume complex carbs at specific times of the day to ensure you use the glucose they produce. © Bikini Body Burn Pty Ltd 2015

23

Fat enables us to process Vitamins A, D, E and K; all of which are key vitamins in muscle and bone growth and development, preventing disease and preventing the breakdown of cells. Just like with protein, there are essential fatty acids that the body cannot produce, you need to consume them. Foods high in essential fatty acids are fish, shellfish, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, leafy vegetables and walnuts.

Unsaturated Generally founds in plantbased foods. Examples: • nuts • avocado • fish

• seeds • vegetable oils


Fat

There are three main kinds of fats:

Saturated Generally found in animal based foods, but also found in some plant-based foods such as coconuts. Examples: • meat • coconut • cheese

• milk • butter

Trans Fats We could attempt to explain what trans fat is but no-one here at Bikini Body Burn is a doctor and you pretty much need to be to be able to articulate the process that occurs for a trans fatty acid to form. In a nutshell – they are bad for you and should be avoided! The high consumption of trans fats has been linked to cancer, diabetes and obesity. Examples: • processed foods • anything baked or fried © Bikini Body Burn Pty Ltd 2015

24

Here at Bikini Body Burn, we support a diet inclusive of both saturated and unsaturated fats. We believe that the benefit from the essential amino acids received from consuming animal based foods outweighs any negative affects. However if you have a diet high in saturated fat, we recommend that you cut back by eating unsaturated fats instead or eating saturated fats that have a lower saturated fat content, such as chicken. Fat is a concentrated source of energy: 1 gram of fat equals nine calories, whereas 1 gram of

carbohydrate and protein equals four calories. As a gram of fat contains more calories than a gram of protein and carbohydrate, you need to exercise portion control throughout the 12 weeks.


Saturated fats have in the past been linked to high cholesterol and heart disease, however studies are inconclusive. Of late, scientists are moving towards the theory that small amounts of saturated fats are beneficial to your body. There does seem to be a general consensus that unsaturated fats are better for you as they provide more benefits to your body than saturated fats do.

Tip Avoid pollution, non-BPA plastics, processed foods, alcohol and smoking. Toxins really mess with the body’s hormonal balance, which increases fat gain. It cannot be stressed enough how much of a big deal this is!! It won’t be long until the consumption of toxins is the next big health controversy. Along with the consumption of sugar, the consumption of toxins is one of the biggest reasons younger generations are gaining more fat than ever. Avoiding the consumption of toxins will really make big inroads into improving your health and speeding up the fat loss process. So make sure your drink bottle is BPA free and avoid processed foods and alcohol and smoking. © Bikini Body Burn Pty Ltd 2015

25

Low-fat products are generally processed, which we recommend you avoid. However some foods that you will consume during the 12 weeks, such as yoghurt, cottage cheese and salad dresses, are available in lowfat options.

Tip Take a Zinc and Magnesium supplement Zinc is important for protein synthesis and growth, as well as boosting your immune system. Magnesium is one of the most abundant minerals in the body and is essential for your body to function.


When i’m food shopping, should i look for low-fat products?

When manufacturers strip fat from a product, they consequently strip away flavour. To compensate for that, they replace fat with sugar. If you look at the carbohydrate content of a low-fat product versus the same product that is full fat, the low-fat product will generally have a much higher carbohydrate content than the full-fat product. It is for this reason that we recommend full-fat products.

Drink plenty of water Drinking plenty of water will help flush toxins through the kidneys, help keep your muscles hydrated and keep your fluid balance in check by transporting nutrients around the body. Aim for three litres a day.

what we have included in the table for various reasons, which if we listed would fill a thousand pages. The foods that we have listed are nutritious, taste amazing and most importantly – when eaten in the right quantities, will help you achieve your expectations.

Quit sugar Sugar is highly addictive because of the dopamine that the brain releases when you have it. A diet high in sugar increases the chances of cancer and fat/weight gain, especially around your stomach.


Can i eat something not included in the nutrition table? Tip We have been selective in

We do not recommend that you consume the following during the 12 weeks:

• Juice (very, very high in sugar!) • Other sugary drinks, such as mochas, caramel lattes, flavoured frappuccinos, syrupbased chai lattes and soft drinks • Anything fried • Ice cream • Frozen yoghurts • Pasta • Pancakes or waffles • Muffins • Bagels • Pastries (including croissants) • Cereal (it is generally very high in sugar with minimal nutrients) • Processed meats such as salami and most sausages (some are nutrient dense, but most are full of toxins and trans fats).


29

Vegetables are a great source of vitamins that work to keep you full. You can have any of the vegetables listed below whenever you like: • Eggplant • Snow peas • Asparagus • Lettuce/spinach/rocket • Kale • Broccoli • Mushroom • Tomato • Cabbage • Onion • Cauliflower • Capsicum • Cucumber • Fresh beetroot • Brussel sprouts • Green sprouts • Squash • Bok Choy • Zucchini

Tip

Take a fish oil supplement Fish oil is important for heart health, bone density and stress control.


What about vegetables not included in the nutrition table?

What about fruits not included in the nutrition table? Fruits are packed with vitamins, but they are also packed with sugar. It is far better to consume natural sugar than processed sugar; however, it is still sugar, which is a carbohydrate. You can eat fruit during the 12 weeks, but limit it to times that we recommend you consume carbohydrates. That being said, we would much rather you smash a bowl of mango than a family-sized chocolate bar! © Bikini Body Burn Pty Ltd 2015

30


Should I have something after a workout? Definitely! What you consume after a workout is really important. When you workout, you damage your tissue, which then needs to repair and rebuild. The damaged tissue needs protein to rebuild. You could consume a chicken breast after your workout, or you could have a delicious protein shake instead. We recommend using a protein shake post-workout for 3 reasons: 1. Most people find it hard to consume whole foods straight after training 2. It is easily accessible and 3. Liquid is absorbed by the body much quicker than solid food.

Which protein powder should i use? Look for a whey-based protein powder that has: • At least 25 grams of protein per serving • Low sugar and carbs (it should have less than 5 grams per serve) and • As little additives as possible.

Karina’s ‘Mr Boombastic, leaves you feeling fantastic’ protein shake recipe: Blend together: •Suggested serving of protein powder •Half a banana •1 cup of ice

•1 tsp of chia seeds •1 cup of water •1 tsp of cacao powder (not to be confused with cocoa, as in ‘hot’ cocoa)

Tip

Reduce stress Stress increases the hormone ‘cortisol’. High levels of cortisol increase the risk of depression, illness, fat gain and memory difficulties. Cortisol can be raised not just through life stresses but through a lack of sleep and exercising for too long also. © Bikini Body Burn Pty Ltd 2015

Some of our workouts incorporate walking, jogging, running and sprinting. As every person has different fitness and exertion levels, we cannot tell you exactly how fast you should go to walk, jog, run or sprint. Use the below table as a guide only.

If you have a high fitness level going into the 12 weeks, your treadmill speed equivalent would be higher. Alternatively if you have low cardiovascular fitness heading into the 12 weeks, a treadmill speed of 9 could leave you breathless.

workout information

How can I learn how to do each exercise? There is an exercise dictionary at the back of this section with explanations and photos showing how to complete each exercise. We recommend going over each exercise at the beginning of a workout until you are really familiar with the exercises.

Should I warm up? You need to warm up before EVERY workout. Have you ever sat for a short period of time and felt stiff when you stood up? That’s because your blood flow has slowed, causing muscle stiffness. Warming up increases blood flow by stretching your muscles, which aids muscle flexibility. An increase in muscle flexibility decreases the risk of injuring yourself and increases your performance during a workout. We have included Karina’s warm up on page 39 which we recommend you do before every workout. In a few of the workouts, we have a jog as a warm up; in which case, you don’t need to do anything additional to warm up.


37

workout information

What about after the workout? You need to warm down at the end of EVERY workout. Stretching is, by definition, extending a part of your body to its full length, improving muscle flexibility. This is important as in order to complete the workouts you need to have good muscle flexibility. Stretching has been known to increase your body's blood flow, boost oxygen levels and help deliver nutrients to your muscles; helping with their repair. We have included some of Karina's favourite post workout stretches on page 40, which we recommend you do at the end of every workout.

KARINA’S TIPS FOR COMPLETING THE WORKOUTS • Use your iPhone as a timer • Always have a bottle of water handy • Mix up your protein shake before your workout so it’s all ready for you when you’re dying on the ground after you’ve finished • Download a tabata app for the 40:20 exercises • Enjoy the feeling of discomfort, it means that your body is getting stronger! © Bikini Body Burn Pty Ltd 2015

12 week guide ready phase Set phase Booty Phase

READY PHASE WEEKS 1-2

The Ready phase will reset your body and get it ready to transform in

Overview of the Ready phase The purpose of this phase is to introduce your body to the Bikini Body Burn style of workouts and to prepare your body to use heavier weights. During this phase the workouts utilise lighter weights and are not as intense as they will be further on in the 12 weeks. This is generally the phase where most girls see the quickest reduction in measurements and (if they have weight to lose) lose the most weight. During this phase you may find that you have low energy.

shape and composition. You might think this is from a lack of carbs, but it isn’t. The slump in energy is caused by your body changing where it takes its energy from: your fat stores rather than from carb rich food.

How many times should I exercise per week? There are four workouts per week of approximately 35 minutes each. In addition to this, we recommend that you also do one session from the following:

Can I have carbs? Pretty please with a delicious sugary cherry on top?

READY

NUTRITION

But I usually have carbs for breakfast?

Your breakfast should Seeing as you asked so nicely, ALWAYS be packed with protein and fat, not carbs. ok. You will receive a small We promise you, changing amount of carbs at each meal what you eat for breakfast from anytime vegetables. But will change your life. So say we recommend that you only goodbye to your last piece have carb rich foods post workout. By restricting carb rich of toast – you need to start foods during this phase you will thinking outside the cereal box. teach your body to burn energy from its fat stores. Which is French for ‘burning fat’.

Tip

If you’re confused about ‘carb rich foods’, turn back to the nutrition section and have a look over the nutrition table.

Put some lemon wedges in your water bottle. There are many benefits of drinking lemon water - it reduces inflammation, aids digestion, curbs hunger, assists with blemish free skin and boosts your immunity. Wow right!

Here are two words that should blow all the carbs right out of your pantry “Sad Sally.” Are those carbs still sitting in your pantry? Ok here’s another story…... There once was a car called Sherbie. Sherbie loved fuel more than anything; she would pick fuel over protein rich oil every day of the week. Three days a week Sherbie went out for a 45-minute spin that burnt 10 litres of fuel. Because Sherbie loved fuel so much, every day Sherbie’s owner put in 10 litres of fuel, even on the days when Sherbie was too busy to go for a spin. Because Sherbie’s tank was already full of fuel, Sherbie’s tank would overflow, as she couldn’t store any more fuel.

If you eat carbs you need to burn them off through exercise. We mentioned in the nutrition section that carbohydrates turn into glucose, which your body uses for energy. If you don’t burn off that glucose, your body will turn it into fat.

Ready phase weeks 1 - 2

But I want to eat carbs every day!

Sherbie didn’t need topping up until after her spin. Your body is the same; you don’t need topping up with carbs until after your workout.

Tip Carry some protein and fat rich snacks with you at all times. That way when hunger strikes you will have a muscle building snack within reach!

If I do an extra workout can I have my cake and eat it too? Pretty, pretty please with sugar on top? You can look, smell, drool and tease yourself all you like, but you cannot eat cake. Unless it’s made from chicken and vegetables. There are NO CHEAT MEALS/ TREATS during this phase, no matter how hard you workout. You are cleansing your body, and unfortunately cake isn’t a cleansing food. We know, we know: it’s not fair; it’s a cruel and delicious world.

we repeat, there are no cheat meals or treats during this phase. © Bikini Body Burn Pty Ltd 2015

So what should I eat and when? As this is not a personalised program, we cannot say how much you should eat. We can however give you some guidelines on what you should include in each meal and how often you should be eating. Each day you will have three meals and two snacks. What you should eat when is determined by whether you have worked out that day. On workout days you will eat slightly more, and on nonworkout days you will not eat any carb rich foods (there will be a small amount of carbs in your anytime vegetables). Each time you eat, you need to be conscious of including the relevant nutrition. The table below outlines what each meal and snack should include:

Tip Portion control Eat until you are 80% full. If you feel like you can’t eat another bite, you have been a Miss Piggy and gone too far.

set PHASE WEEKS 3-6

The Set phase will build upon the foundation you created in the Ready phase by increasing the intensity of the workouts.

Overview of the Set phase During the Ready phase you taught your body to utilise energy from your fat stores as opposed to utilising it from carb rich foods. Goodbye fat, hellooooo lean muscle! Now that your body knows where to derive energy, we can reintroduce carbohydrate rich foods at specific times. If you haven’t already, you will begin to see your energy levels increase and will start to feel amazing.

How many times should I exercise per week? There are four workouts per week of approximately 35-40 minutes each. In addition to this, we recommend that each week you also do one session from each of the following:

SET

NUTRITION

to keep yourself motivated, continually revisit your expectations on page 14

Can I have cake yet? You can answer this question yourself after you have gone back and revisited your expectations. If you think eating cake marries with your expectations, by all means go ahead and eat it. If it doesn’t, sit back and admire that cake from a distance.

So what should I eat? The same as the Ready phase, each day you will have three meals and two snacks. And as for carbs, crack the sparkling water - during the Set phase you will have carbs post workout AND at dinner on workout days AND non-workout days. You’re welcome.

The tables below outline what each meal and snack should include during this phase:

Booty PHASE WEEKS 7-12

congratulations,

Half way!

you are half way through the 12 weeks!

It’s time to re-take your measurements and record them on page 20. We want to hear how you are going, so don’t forget to tag #bikinibodyburn in your posts so we can track your progress!

Overview of the Booty phase By now your body has recalibrated itself by learning where to draw its energy from. Fat has been burning away and lean muscle has been building for six whole weeks! As your body has adapted to the amount and type of exercise sessions that you have been doing, the intensity of the workouts will increase to shock your body.

A lot of the workouts include AMRAP (as many rounds as possible). Record how many rounds you get through and each week try to beat your number from the week before. In the second half of this phase, you will find that your weights will be heavier and the rests shorter. You should well and truly see some change within yourself by this stage. Let the small changes that you can see spur you on over the next six weeks, the results you are seeing now will only get better and better! © Bikini Body Burn Pty Ltd 2015

97

How many times should I exercise per week? During weeks 7 to 9 there are four workouts per week of approximately 35-45 minutes each. In addition to this, we recommend that each week you also do one session from each of the following:

During weeks 10 to 12 there are five workouts per week of approximately 30-40 minutes each. In addition to this, we recommend that each week you also do one session from the following:

low intensity

low intensity

Pilates Yoga Walking

Pilates Yoga Walking

high intensity

Tip

Spin class or another high intensity fitness class Running

Get some sun The vitamin D you get from the sun is important for muscle and bone growth. Don’t burn yourself or lay out for hours; a half hour walk on the beach will do you wonders.


98

Just give me a slice of cake already! Ok ok! The Booty phase is designed to train your body and mind to adapt to the changes to exercise and nutrition. We want you to carry on with this after the 12 weeks have finished. Soooo…... aim to stick to the nutrition guidelines 90% of the time. So yes, you can have your slice of cake occasionally. When you do, try and eat it one hour before a workout or within two hours after a workout. The same goes for all simple carbs such as lollies and soft drink.

BOOTY

NUTRITION

So what should I eat? The same as the past six weeks, each day you will have three meals and two snacks. During this phase you will have carbs post workout AND at lunch AND at dinner on workout days AND at dinner on nonworkout days. You’re doubly welcome. The table below outlines what each meal and snack should include during this phase:

W day/s workout Meals to include:
