Okay, so the review.. The program itself is pretty easy to follow. You have 7 workouts, one for each day of the week and repeat 3 times to give you 21 days. There is also a guide, depending on your personal calorie calculation (the guide comes with the info to help you figure out your numbers), of how many of each container you are allowed to have a day.
- Red - Protein
- Purple - Fruits
- Green - Veggies
- Blue - Healthy Fats
- Yellow - Carbs
- 2 orange - one for seeds the other for dressings
- Teaspoon - Oils and nut butters
I know this sounds confusing but it actually is really easy. The guide has a couple of recipes for each meal of the day and really helps you get started. The best part is it is yummy and you do not feel deprived at all! When you plate your meals, they are a lot bigger than you would think. This isn't as much as a restriction as many believe. You get to eat a lot of foods but, we focus on the amounts of food and portions. The meal guide is really good and I found it easy to follow.
Now, the workouts. Autumn Calabrese is the trainer for this program. She is AWESOME. Each workout is just about 30 minutes including the warm up and cool down. You have NO excuse to not have time because it is so short and easy to fit in. This was my fave. part about the program. The workouts each have a modifier so if you cannot do some of the higher impact moves such as jumping, there is always someone to follow. I found myself extremely sore the first week of this program. I found drinking my shakeology right after did help A LOT. When I first did the program the Performane Line was not yet available. If you want some extra help to push through those workouts I highly recommend them to help you go the extra mile. They are not filled with junk and really help you perform and recover faster than without them. They are not NEEDED though. They are just there for a little extra oomph. What helped me stick to the program was the online challenge group. Everyone in the group committed day in and day out so if they could do it, I know I could they were my motivation and support. The program is only 21 days so its not as bad as the longer programs. However, you still get results! I lost 12 inches from my body from my first round and 6 pounds.
Next transformation image is from one of my challengers. She is a new mom who lost a lot of her pregnancy weight but was having trouble with the last 10 pounds and guess what.. SHE LOST THEM. I am so proud of her, look at her results. She had the program for a while, but the key for her was the challenge group. She said the daily support and motivation is what really helped her get to the finish line. She is now on her second round of the program too! She has the Fixate cookbook for this go around to help her when she needs a quick and yummy recipe. Meal prepping also helped her a lot and she learned this concept through the group.
In summary, 21 day fix extreme DOES work, but you must put in the effort! I am going to be doing another round soon after I do the 3 day refresh this coming week. (The challenge pack is on sale this month too! Look out for my review of the program soon! I may just do a daily journal of it and post it for you all )
If you would like to be a part of my next challenge group please contact me. You can always message me on FB, or Email me. I cannot wait to talk goals with you!
Enjoy your weekend!
