As I am sure many people are aware fitness is a huge topic and is likely to remain so for the near future, and rightly so.
Now before this gets negative nellies all up about themselves saying I am adding to the fat shaming culture - I am most certainly not. I believe everyone should feel happy in there body and if not don't hate themselves but do something about it.
Since starting a full time job however I have noticed my fitness levels and tone of my body drop (downside of a desk job) and that even with playing tennis multiple times a week there is no improvement. So I can say I have become rather uncomfortable with the way my body looks, and the urge to feel better and more toned (like others in my line of work). And lets face it social media, the news and Instagram does nothing to help this matter! It is however through Instagram that I got my kick up the butt to find a plan that would work for me and get me the body I want and relatively fast, as being honest I am rather impatient.
When I first saw Kayla's profile I was stunned by her body and inspired to get mine in the same condition (or as near as I can). Then I saw the posts of women she has trained and there results using her own online BBG Guide. After a small amount of deliberation I though 'what the heck its not going to make me any worse' and purchased the vegetarian package. This comprised of Kayla's H.E.L.P food and nutrition guide and the 12 week bikini body plan. Now this isn't basic as I first assumed being ever the skeptic. Both the nutrition guide and exercise plan are educational outlining why you should train in that manner and the importance of a good diet and what can compile this. In the H.E.L.P nutrition guide there are multiple meal guides to take you through day by day comprising of breakfast, 2 snacks lunch and dinner. Which along with the exercise plan are the main things you will need to get your results.
I have decided to document the progress of the BBG guide and show my progress and the roller coaster I am sure will follow alongside this journey. Starting today, for the 12 weeks I shall be posting a review on how I feel after every week and progress photos every 4 weeks as recommended in the guide. Like a mini check in to keep myself accountable.
So to kick this all off I have included my starting stats (and these are most certainly a kick up the butt to get my toned gym body from university back).
