For this program, you’ll need a set of light, medium, and heavy dumbbells, and the BOD Rope. I’m excited to try out this new cordless jump rope. I feel like it’s going to be a game-changer for us! Also, once you get familiar with all your program materials, you’ll see that there is a dumbbell tracker for you to use to track your progress over the next 3 weeks.
Nutrition Daily Check-In:
By now, I hope you’ve picked a nutrition program to follow. No one wants to do all this great fitness work and undo it with poor eating. I know there is a lot to absorb but it’s worth taking the time, even if you watch a few videos a day. No matter which program you’re following, now is the time to think about what you’re going to eat during #mbf and start your meal prep. Remember, you don’t have to be a gourmet chef to be successful with either of these nutrition plans. Yes, meal prep may take a little time and organization, but it doesn’t have to be complicated, and it will be so worth it.
What meals are you going to be cooking this week? You’ll want to make a shopping list before going to the grocery store. All these details are covered in the 2B Mindset and Ultimate Portion Fix videos and program materials.
If you need meal inspirations, be sure to explore all of the recipes in the Beachbody Guide to Nutrition and on Beachbody On Demand. Look for the Mindset Menu and FIXATE—lots of yummy ideas there.
Also, do yourself this huge favor: Skip the junk food! I promise there will be plenty of delicious treat ideas over the next 3 weeks to satisfy your cravings. You can get a sneak peek in the Beachbody Guide to Nutrition, plus Ilana and Autumn have plenty more.
