So, what’s LIIFT4 and how does it work? As I promised, it’s just 4 days a week for the next 8 weeks. Each of Joel’s 32 unique workouts is 30-40 minutes with a combo of weight training and high-intensity (HIIT) cardio. BUILD IT, the first 6 weeks, is focused on building lean muscle to strengthen your body, while the last 2 weeks, SHRED IT, go harder on the HIIT workouts to burn through calories and get you cut. We’ll also hit your core at the end of every workout. The 3 weekly recovery days help give your muscles a chance to rest and repair, so you can come back to your next workout stronger.
Now let’s talk nutrition—what I love about the LIIFT4 Program & Nutrition Guide is that it’s beyond simple. There are no gimmicks and no complicated recipes. The food lists are packed with choices that’ll help set you up for success, along with a sample day of how to make it all work. Plus, there’s an optional “cheat day” for when you feel like you need a little sweet treat or a dinner out with friends.
Your daily Shakeology is a crucial part of your success with LIIFT4. New changes to your diet or exercise habits can increase the demands on your body. Shakeology gives you more of the healthy nutrients you need every day to help your body perform at its best.
Joel’s secret weapon, Beachbody Performance, is another huge part of this program AND key to getting results. You’ll take these supplements on each workout day, and if you’re looking to build some serious muscle, Joel has a plan for that.
To prepare you for the program watch READY FOR LIIFT OFF: COUNTDOWN TO WEEK 1. This is the first of 9 episodes that help guide you through each week and give you a look inside LIIFT4 with Joel and the cast.
More to come tomorrow, but Joel wanted me to share this message with you—he’s so excited that you’re doing LIIFT4!
