WELCOME TO THE 28 DAY SHRED CHALLENGE
I cannot tell you how excited I am to get you going!
Before we start I want to make sure you have got yourself in a good mindset.
This Programme is all about approaching Fitness and Nutrition with a positive outlook and acting from a place of self-care and never from a place of neglect or negativity.
Yes this programme is designed to get you results in 28 days.
However the real purpose of this programme is to kick start you into a healthy way of life, by educating you on how to create new habits that will have a long term affect on your physical and mental well being.
The 5 principles
Remember you must follow the 5 key principles which are:
> Get 70 thousand steps in a week ( 10 thousand a day but you can split it how you like)
> Train at least 3-4 x a week (if you have an existing workout programme you can still do this)
> Have at least one rest day which means no weight training or HIIT workouts, walks are still fine
> Follow a calorie controlled diet or stick to the diet you are currently on as long as the focus is good nutrition overall
> Do 2 meditations a week ( guidance will be given on day 2 )
