21 Day Fix

Good evening all. As many know I am doing the "21 Day Fix" and just became a Beachbody coach. A few have asked exactly what is the "21 Day Fix". This is the post for you.

What is 21 Day Fix? 

 It is a 21-day program of simple portion control and 30-minute workouts that anyone can do. It is simple, fast weight loss—no weighing food or counting calories, carbs, or points. You can lose up to 15 pounds in 21 days. You get color coded containers. You calculate you optimal number of calories and use that to determine how many of each colored container you need. Then if it fits and is within that colors allowed list you can eat it.

What makes 21 Day Fix unique?

It is all about the portion-control containers that take all the guesswork out of losing weight. It's the simplest way to control how much you eat. There is no counting calories. If it fits you can eat it. The workouts are 30-minute workouts that anyone can do and fit into everyone's busy life. I lost five pounds in the first week and nine pounds and 16 inches by the end of 21 days.

What did you like about the 21 Day Fix?

I loved the variety of the workouts. Each day was something new. There are eight workouts total in the original fix. You do the seven thirty minute workouts, one each day. Then there is a bonus 10 minute Abs routine that you can add on as an extra. The exercises are different in each video.  The warm up and cool downs are the same, but I don't think the is an exercises repeated. The videos are based on a drop set where you do sixty seconds of work with a 20 second break. Most have four set of two exercises where each exercise is repeated in the set. Autumn, the trainer, also loves her bonus sets.

What didn't you like about the 21 Day Fix?

For once in my life I can say there isn't anything I dislike about this program. There is enough variety to keep me engaged and coming back each day. The music is good.  The people they got to do the workouts are real life people and they tell their stories during the workouts.

What is the additional Piyo video I received with my challenge pack?

Piyo is an additional high intensity cardio workout. Once you have built up some muscle and stamina you can use it to replace one of the cardio workouts in the week. Piyo is a mix of yoga and Pilates. It includes a lot of jumping. The first time I did it I was surprised at how sore I was afterwards, but I knew the soreness meant I was working.

What additional fitness equipment will I need to complete this workout program?

You will need two sets of dumbbells, a light and heavy set, or a resistance band to complete this program. A mat is optional.
