I have been planning and preparing for weeks for the start of the brand new in-home workout program, 80 Day Obsession created by Super Trainer Autumn Calabrese! If you are familiar with her other previous fitness programs, 21 Day Fix, 21 Day Fix Extreme, The Master's Hammer and Chisel, you might also be just as excited as I am! 

If you are someone who already works out regularly and you are looking for a new challenge, this program is going to be right up your alley! As Autumn says, it will challenge you to change you, it will force you outside of your comfort zone, and when you combine the 80 DIFFERENT workout routines with Timed Nutrition, you will really amp up your results! 

I have been working with my customers and coaching team to prepare for this program, both with following A Little Obsessed workouts, and getting a clear understanding about what Timed Nutrition entails!

The program in it's entirety is actually 97 days long total, consisting of 80 workouts, and 17 rest days. I really love that she planned the rest days on Sundays! 

The nutrition portion is spelled out exactly for you, based on your unique and individual goals (weight loss, maintenance, build muscle or weight gain). The plan tells you what containers (aka food groups) to eat at what times, and how much of each to use, along with the specific foods to eat for each food group. It seriously cannot get ANY easier than this! All we need to do is FOLLOW THE PLAN! Sounds pretty simple, right? 

This program is best suited for someone who is already familiar with the Fixate/Portion Fix nutrition plan, and is at an intermediate to advanced fitness level. If you are new to regular exercise and consider yourself a beginner fitness level, or are pregnant, I would suggest joining a fitness accountability group with me and start out with a more entry-level program and work your way up to completing 80 Day Obsession. 

You will need some basic equipment for this program. I recommend light, medium and heavy weights (such as 10's, 15's and 20's), the sliders and resistance loops (they come in light, medium and heavy resistance), a floor mat, and roller (optional). To participate and join into my online support and accountability groups, you will need to have me as your free coach and place your order through me so that I can add you to my next accountability support group! If you are interested in this program, please take a few minutes to fill out my form and I will get back to you with the details ASAP! 

The next 80 Day Obsession is now open for enrollment, and will begin Prep Week on January 29th, with the official day 1 and workouts beginning on Monday, February 5th. 

Hurry and fill out the application before the spots are all gone! 

80 DAY OBSESSION MEAL PLAN

The 80 Day Obsession meal plan is extremely detailed, and at first glance might seem fairly complex. But Autumn designed it super specific so that there wouldn't be much room for doubt or question. Once you take the time to learn it and get the hang of it, you will find yourself sliding right into a new routine and habit with your eating that will be easy to maintain for the long haul!

I wanted to give you a sample of my plan. Each person will use the provided formula to figure out what Plan is right for you, based on weight, goals, and activity level. Then you will simply log into your Beachbody On Demand, download the plan that's right for you, and plug in your foods/meals accordingly! You will notice that I use the Beachbody Performance Line supplements. I strongly recommend using them for the duration of this program, because they will help your body to train and perform at it's best! These workouts will challenge your body, and you will benefit from using the supplements by reducing muscle soreness and decreasing recovery time between your workouts.

I hope that this sample plan gives you some guidance!

1 red (protein), 1/2 green (veggie) per 2 egg muffin cups in this photo

1 red, 1 yellow (carb), 1 green, 1 blue (healthy fat)

1 1/4 green, 1/2 red,  1 blue and 1 tsp.

                                 2 purple (fruit), 1 tsp. 

Here is a sample of a day's meals with my plan. Basically I will eat the same times and containers each day, and I alternate every other day with the main meals (breakfast, lunches and dinners) per week, so I'm prepping 2 different breakfasts, 2 lunches and 2 dinners for the whole week, which keeps things super simple and manageable for me!

I tweaked my plan already from the first couple days, to add the shakeology as my pre-workout meal because I just felt like eating eggs and oats right away at 5AM was way too much food that early in the morning, and right before a workout. I just felt way too full and a tad bit sluggish. For people who are waiting the full 60-90 minutes to work out after eating, it would probably work just fine...but for me, with 4 kiddos and a busy schedule, I didn't want to put my workout off past 5:30 or 6:00. 

So far I'm finding that my group is getting the hang of Timed Nutrition, and they are loving the workouts as well! Probably the biggest concern I am getting from people is the length of the workouts. Day 1 and 2 were nearly an hour long, but honestly the time went by super fast, and it sure as heck didn't seem like an hour had passed! I love the routines, they are slow and paced, but effective moves that leave me feeling it the next day...which is always the goal so you know it's working! Am I right? 

I am currently accepting enrollments for my February 80 Day Obsession group, if this is something that you are wanting to do for yourself or better yet, with a friend, share this post and complete my application HERE! 

Hope to see you in my next online accountability group!!!! 

80 DAY OBSESSION REVIEW - EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW!

Do you want to build up a firm, rounded butt AND burn away fat to reveal leaner, flatter abs? At the same time?!?  What if I told you YOU COULD!?! 

Introducing the newest in-home fitness program created by Autumn Calabrese, 80 Day Obsession, which was designed to help you burn fat and get lean! Click here to get it first! AVAILABLE DEC. 14TH 2017.

Read on to learn what you can expect from this extreme home workout (complete with a modifier so ANYONE can do it!)!!

WHAT IS THE 80 DAY OBSESSION?

It is the newest streamable workout program complete with a scientifically developed meal plan designed for advanced exercisers who want to build their strength and lean out their flattest abs ever. The 80 Day Obsession promises a firm, rounded booty and flat stomach. YES PLEASE! While Autumn's not new to in-home workouts, she's taking this one to a whole new level, with 80 different workouts filmed live, so you never repeat a workout! 

She talked about the program saying, "it's all about the right workouts in the right sequence, plus a targeted approach to nutrition". Because it takes both the right workouts along with the appropriate nutrition to get results, I am confident with this complete package, this is the solution to help you finally achieve the health and fitness goals you've been looking for! 

WHAT OTHER PROGRAMS HAS AUTUMN DEVELOPED?

• COUNTRY HEAT (BEGINNER FITNESS LEVEL)
• 21 DAY FIX (BEGINNER FITNESS LEVEL)
• 21 DAY FIX EXTREME (INTERMEDIATE TO ADVANCED)
• THE MASTER'S HAMMER AND CHISEL (INTERMEDIATE TO ADVANCED)
• BEST-SELLING COOKBOOK, FIXATE

WHO SHOULD DO 80 DAY OBSESSION?

ANYONE wanting to:

• build a leaner, tighter body
• add curves without bulking up
• get those fitness model abs
• get an extreme workout in the comfort of your own home

The workouts range from 45-60 minutes per day, 6 days per week. Enjoy a rest day once per week! The meal plan is a professionally, scientifically calibrated timed nutrition plan designed to get you max results each week of the program so that you're never left guessing what to eat.

It's going to require hard work, and this is not for everyone, BUT you'll be training like an athlete and fitness competitor, and be working every day with a super trainer to get max results!

WHAT ARE THE 80 DAY OBSESSION WORKOUTS LIKE?

The 80 Day Obsession workouts include 80 unique workouts that are designed for experienced exercisers, and each routine also includes a modifier to follow as you build up your strength and endurance, making it doable for ANY fitness level!  You will see total body workouts using weights, compound exercises, and plyo moves. These workouts are available exclusively on Beachbody On Demand (think Netflix of the Fitness World), and not on DVD. The program is divided into 3 phases that last about a month each to help you sculpt and tone your entire body. 

PHASE 1

In Phase 1, you learn the moves and proper form using your resistance bands and sliders. The focus is on building up strength and practicing good form for maximum results. 

PHASE 2

In Phase 2, you'll begin adding in compound moves to make the most use of your workout, by working multiple muscle groups at the same time. You'll also be adding more weights in this series, but you'll still be using your body weight for resistance in certain workouts as well. 

PHASE 3

The final phase is the most intense (as you might expect!). In Phase 3, you'll begin mixing in plyo moves to those compound exercises you learned in Phase 2. 

WHAT YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT THE WORKOUTS

If you are a person who experiences workout boredom, you'll especially love how no 2 workouts are the same! Even if it's the same moves, you're changing up the reps or weights you use. You can forget about being bored, and you'll always feel challenged! This program will truly feel like you're working out with your very own personal trainer because of the variety and challenge. 

WORKOUT LENGTH: 45-60 MINUTES

CALENDAR: Workout 6 days per week, with Sunday as a rest day. 

EQUIPMENT NEEDED: 

• Strength Sliders
• Resistance Loops
• Dumbbells (light, medium, and heavy)
• Foam Roller and Core Comfort Mat (optional but recommended)

80 DAY OBSESSION NUTRITION AND MEAL PLAN

If you are familiar with the 21 Day Fix, you already know Autumn's attention to nutrition is one of the reasons this program did, and continues to do so well with helping people reach their weight loss goals. She made the meal plan simple and effective, and people's results were on POINT. 

You'll be happy to know that the 80 Day Obsession meal plan is no different! 

DOES THE 80 DAY OBSESSION HAVE CONTAINERS?

Yes it does, because we all know how important portion control is with our eating, but Autumn wanted to give us a tool to help us eat EXACTLY like she does, and therefore added in timed nutrition. 

Just as in 21 Day Fix, you'll calculate your calorie bracket (A, B, C, or D) based on your current weight and goals. This bracket tells you how many containers of each food group to eat per day. Autumn then takes things a step further by incorporating WHEN it's the ideal time to eat certain foods, aka timed nutrition. 

You'll follow this simple approach to Timed Nutrition using the portion fix containers (included with your Challenge Pack) to maximize muscle recovery and performance. The nutrition guide outlines what the best foods are to have during the time of day and around your workouts. 

You'll be eating small meals throughout the day (5-6 mini-meals), and you'll never go beyond 3 hours without eating. Since the workouts are advanced, it's also recommended to use the Performance Supplements. You're going to want to help feed your muscles and help them to recover from the intense workouts!

You are also allowed a "RE-FEED DAY" which helps you refuel your muscles with energy, On this day, you'll be given more carbs to build up glycogen. This starts in week 6, and continues every few weeks after. You'll be happy to know that the 80 Day Obsession meal plan can be customized for any dietary need, like vegan or food allergies as well. 

TIMED NUTRITION

You'll use a pre-workout meal an hour before you work out, and your pre-workout supplement, Energize, about 15 minutes before you start working out to prime your body. After your workout, you'll want to have your post-workout supplement, Recover, within an hour. Then you'll eat another small meal within 2 hours of your workout. 

You'll be happy to know that you have the option to get the entire program along with the nutrition and supplements in a bundled and discounted option HERE!

DO YOU NEED WORKOUT SUPPLEMENTS?

As mentioned above, Autumn does recommend using the Performance Line Supplements because of the intensity of each workout. Taking Energize before your workout will help you continue to push through your cardio and strength workouts, as it improves your endurance. Recover after your workout helps to reduce muscle soreness and rebuild muscle. Then you can also incorporate Recharge before bed if you're still feeling sore so that you're able to push yourself the following day with your workout routine. 

While you can see results without using supplements, they can help accelerate your results, fuel your body and help you get through the workouts with greater intensity and with less soreness. You'll thank yourself for using them!

So here it is!!! What would you say if I told you that you could work on your health goals for just 4 weeks and get a split of up to $3 MILLION DOLLARS in prize money!?!?

You'd be in, right? #nobrainer

This is BETTER than the original Diet Bet idea, the "Biggest Loser" challenges, …seriously!

•Change the word "diet" and replace it with HEALTH. YOUR health to be exact ;) Beachbody thinks you'll love getting fit and healthy so much so that they want to pay you to hold yourself and others accountable. Sweet, right?

....BUT could it possibly get any sweeter? Yes!!! So what's the scoop??

•For the original "Diet Bet", people have to fork over their own money and then lose it to their friends if they don't lose the most weight in the agreed upon time.

•For Beachbody's Health Bet, you invest in yourself with by purchasing a Beachbody bundle kit…which you KEEP for as long as you like (hopefully forever!)!! You don't put up ANY of your own money for the bet. Beachbody has already thrown $1,000,000 into a pot and they'll be adding up to $3,000,000 total, by the start of the challenge on Sept. 4th.

I know you're wondering by this point, "So how do you I get a part of that pot"?

Master's Hammer & Chisel Meal Plan

So this week I finish my first round of the 8 week in-home fitness program, The Master's Hammer & Chisel! I can hardly believe I am only 3 days away from the finish line. How many times do we start a program only to fizzle out and lose interest, get bored, or lose our motivation? I know I certainly have been there! And I was far from perfect with following the workout schedule or meal plan to a "T"...but regardless, I am really happy for my results and progress!!

I created my final meal plan, and wanted to share it with you in case you are looking for some new ideas and inspiration (ALSO compatible with 21 Day Fix meal plans). Follow my posts for the recipes - I'll be adding photos with my meals throughout the week!

My next online accountability support group begins on Monday, Feb. 1st, in case you are looking for a support system to help you finish with results YOU can be proud of!

Apply HERE if you are interested in learning how you can reserve YOUR spot!!

The Spouse Fit Challenge

Here we are...the end of August. Fall is upon us; pumpkins and skinny jeans, baggy sweaters, boots, and leaves turning.  Evenings sipping tea, kids going back to school, schedules changing, leaving summer behind and looking forward to winter and cooler weather. You might be feeling like your goals to work towards your summer body failed you. But guess what? It's not too late for a fresh start!!

Do you sometimes find yourself wishing your spouse was on the same page as you with your fitness goals? Do you find you often have problems communicating with one another when it concerns your workouts and nutrition?

There's an easy answer why that is. Guys are just simply programed different then us women. We all know, guys don't want to be told what to do. They like their beer and burgers... but the point is to do things together and support one another to make small changes in the right direction. Improving yourselves and your health TOGETHER can have the potential to help your relationship, marriage, and health all in one.

I gotta admit, it can be tough at times to keep motivated and have discipline. It's back to school for the kids, the PERFECT TIME for a fresh start for YOU BOTH as well!!!  What would be better than for you to do a program together - workouts, meal plan, the whole works?!  Your spouse can potentially be your biggest supporter and determining factor of how well you are able to stick with your program for the duration - whether it be 21 days, or 90.

What if I could offer you a 30 day group with my hubby and I in a SPOUSE FIT challenge??? Together you and your spouse are teammates, holding each other accountable, {{couples competing with one another}} for a one night Hotel Stay on us based on participation and the voted best transformation!

Are you ready to kick your fall fitness goals in high gear and do this with us?!?!

We begin PRESEASON on Monday!!!!!  Who's in?!?!
