This is not a program that is going to make you

that’s unrealistic. The quicker you shed weight,

This is not my goal. My goal is to help you get

ABOUT my

Transformation
Before we get started, I want to give you a bit From that day in November 2012, I dedicated

food, and get results to feel and look my best. I
It started back in November 2012, which seems have gone through those moments of thinking “I
like yesterday! I had no idea where to start, cannot be in the gym for two hours a day, there
what to eat, or what workouts to do, but I knew I HAS to be a better way of getting results!” and
needed to make a change. “This food is so boring... there HAS to be a better
way to enjoy eating healthy!”
I was in my early 20’s, in college full time,
working full time, and the last thought that I have found solutions to each of these huge
would ever cross my mind was my health. It’s problems people encounter along their journey
sad, but it’s true. I had no concept of nutrition, and I am so excited to share them with you.

problems I would eventually incur. My journey for a lifetime of healthier choices.
started from the inside, as I had no problem with
how I looked on the outside. Sure, I dreamed
of having a flat stomach, but in my mind, no
amount of diet or exercise would ever change it,
so why bother?

Now, I know better. I now know what a profound


impact food has not just on my looks, but on
my health. I now know the power of motivation,
dedication and knowledge! This is what I want to
pass on to women all over the world, and help
them achieve the same mental and physical
transformation I did. Not only will you feel
better about yourself, you will gain a newfound
confidence to take on anything that stands in
your way. This is about SO much more than
weightloss. It’s about showing yourself just This is not a diet. This is a way of life.

IN ORDER TO FAIRLY EVALUATE YOUR PROGRESS


THROUGH YOUR ACCOUNTABILITY PICTURES, IT IS
IMPORTANT TO KEEP AS MANY VARIABLES IN YOUR
PHOTOS AS ALIKE AS POSSIBLE

Here are a few tips for taking your Accountability Photos:

• Wear the same sports bra/crop top and


shorts/underwear each time.
• Take the photo in the same three positions
each time: front, side, and back - with your
legs and arms in the same position.
• Take the photo in the same, FULL length
mirror, in the same lighting.
• Clean up the background :) It can be
distracting to your progress and we want
these pictures to highlight the amazing
changes in your body, not the dirty clothes
behind you!

#ANNAVICTORIA

Additional Methods
• Measurements with measuring tape: measure thighs, lower belly, waist,
bust, and your arms.
• Bodyfat percentage test: Can be done at a doctor’s office or at
most gyms.

Last Resort Method


The scale: I do not recommend using the scale. Throughout the next 12
weeks, you will be losing fat while gaining lean muscle, and the scale will not
properly reflect this. This is because one pound of lean muscle takes up HALF the space one pound
of fat does. This means you can have less fat on your body but weigh the exact same! Also, we are
women! We have hormones that make us retain water some days more than others, even when it’s
not that time of the month and this can cause the number on the scale to fluctuate even if
we are genuinely losing fat from our bodies. It is not fair to you or the hard work you will
be putting in to get stuck on this number when it doesn’t give an accurate reflection of
your progress. Let’s stick to accountability photos. :)

#ANNAVICTORIA

ABOUT THE

FBG Schedule
The main focus of this program is high intensity strength, resistance and plyometric
training. This method is most effective in building a lean and toned body, while still
shedding fat at the same time. Strength training is what will help you build lean
muscle, while the cardiovascular and high intensity workouts are what will help you
shed the fat.

Toning and Strength Training: High Intensity Training:


Monday-Saturday: 30 minute workouts Monday, Wednesday, Friday: 30 minutes

Cardiovascular & Ab Training Stretching


Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday: 45 minutes Monday-Sunday: 15 minutes

Rest Day
Sunday is your full rest day. Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday are considered half
rest days simply because you are not engaging in strength training or working any
major muscle groups. So on these half rest days, you will be doing cardiovascular
exercises and targeted ab circuits. Working on your abs post-cardio is a great way
to push them to the next level since you engage your abs through cardiovascular
exercise and proper breathing.

Strength Training Circuits


Monday, Wednesday and Friday focus on major muscle groups and consist of three
circuits to be performed right after another, for three rounds. Perform circuit 1,
circuit 2, circuit 3 - this is one round. Repeat for three total rounds, meaning 9 total
circuits. Each round should take 10 minutes and since you repeat for three rounds,
the total workout will last 30 minutes.

training, between one 30-minute cardio session and a 10-15 minutes core/
abdominal session broken down into two circuits. Once again, these circuits are to
be performed one after the other, with a rest period after each circuit.

plateau.

Did you know?


A “plateau” happens when your body has been doing the same exercises for a long
period of time, usually anything beyond 4-8 weeks. When you do the same exercises
over and over for weeks or months, your muscles and your body adjust to the routine,
and it is no longer being challenged, therefore you no longer get further results. This
is why it’s so important to allow your body a few weeks to repeat the same exercises
in order to get the most out of each circuit, but then move on to a higher intensity
level and eventually an all new circuit set. We need to keep your body guessing and
progressing!

what you will need

Training Equipment
One thing I love so much about the Fit Body Guide is that you can do it from
anywhere! No gym membership is required; you can work out at home, in the park, or
in the gym if you like! Even if you travel, have limited time or space, you will be able
to complete these workouts successfully. You will just need a few basic items to get
started!

YOGA MAT JUMP ROPE

DUMBBELLS WATER

PLATFORM TIMER

My recommendation is to print out this guide. That way you can have it with you and
don’t need to use your phone for anything but a timer. You will also be able to take
notes on it and record your thoughts and progress in your Daily FBG Journal on the
next page.

UNDERSTANDING

The Training Guide


Alright, girls! Just one more page to go before your fit body journey begins. Let’s take
a quick look at how the workouts are presented in this guide to make sure we don’t
accidentally skip over any important details!

There are three circuits in each Strength Training Day. Each circuit should be done in the
same order as they are listed. For example:

CIRCUIT 1
1. Lunge
2. Squat + Lunge
3. Jump Squat
Rest 30 seconds

CIRCUIT 2

1. Glute Bridge + Single Leg Glute Bridge


2. Donkey Kick
3. Jump Turn
Rest 30 seconds

CIRCUIT 3
1. Squat + Stiff Leg Deadlift
2. Weighted Sumo Squat
3. Burpee + Squat Jump
Rest 60 seconds
REPEAT FOR THREE ROUNDS

Follow this routine for a total of three rounds, which should take 30 minutes, then stretch.
If you are having trouble finishing the workouts within the 30 minutes, don’t worry, you will
get there! Keep track of your time each week and you will be amazed at how quickly you
will progress!

Lastly, don’t forget to read the notes under each exercise for the details of the rounds and
repetitions, they change every two weeks.

IMPORTANCE OF A

Total Body Workout


A lot of times my clients ask how to specifically target fat from one area, for example,
their thighs or belly. This is called “Spot Reduction”. However, our bodies do not
work this way. We cannot choose where we lose fat from just like we cannot choose
where we gain fat. In order to lose fat from your problem areas, you need to reduce
your overall bodyfat percentage which will happen through a Total Body Workout and
Cardio Routine.

I want to give you this information on

sooner you will get those results.

There is nothing wrong with having a problem area in mind you want to improve, as
long as you don’t focus only on exercising that area, because you won’t get results
that way. You will get those results once you start focusing on your entire body
through the Fit Body Training Guide. For this reason, do not mix up the workout days,
or do two Lower Body Days or two Upper Body Days. The Fit Body Training Guide is
designed to give you a total body workout because that is what will help give you the
best, long-term results.

Recommendations
Proper nutrition is the other key to the puzzle. Your body needs food to use as fuel in
order to properly run and efficiently burn calories through the day. It is easy to un-
derestimate how much food you need, and if you don’t eat enough food and the right
foods, then you can very easily waste a lot of time in the gym, and I know that’s not
what you want!

The Fit Body Training Guide is designed to be paired with The Fit Body Meal Plan
Guide. By using the two guides together, you will ensure maximum results and you
will get the most out of all your hard work.

#ANNAVICTORIA

Did You Know?


No amount of exercise can outwork a bad diet. If you are exercising but you are
not following a meal plan, you could very likely not be eating enough, or enough of
the right food groups that your body needs to function properly and burn calories
efficiently.

drinking

Recommendations
Water:
Aim to drink 3-4 liters of water per day if you are exercising. Additionally, you should
aim to drink 1 liter of water through your workout routine. After each circuit, take a
drink of water. This will ensure you are hydrated, will help decrease belly bloat, and
will overall help your body and vital organs run efficiently.

Alcohol:
I would advise to cut out alcohol as much as possible, if not completely. Alcohol has
zero nutritional content, can severely hinder your physical progress, and will keep
you from being in optimal health.

Alcohol interferes with digestion, makes it difficult to absorb nutrients from your
food, and impairs protein synthesis which is responsible for many of the body’s vital
processes. Not to mention alcohol impairs your judgement and typically leads to un-
healthy binge eating.

If you are over the legal age to drink alcohol in your country and you have a special
event where you would like to have one to two drinks, this is okay. The important
thing is to be able to stop yourself after the second drink, at the most. However, if you
feel one or two drinks could lead to three or four, it is best to exercise caution and
pass on the alcohol altogether.

Heart Rate Zones


Our bodies burn fat and calories when our heart rate is increased and you sustain
that heart rate for an extended period of time. However, there are different heart
rate zones and intensities, and these zones have a different effect on your body and
fitness.

This is commonly referred to as the “fat-burning zone”. This


is why LISS is great for burning fat. However, your body is not

Note:
Heart rate zones will vary from each person to the next. The best way to measure your
heart rate zone is to wear a heart rate monitor/watch during your workouts.

CARDIO

Warmup Options
Each workout should begin with a quick five minute cardio warmup. The function of
a warmup is to raise total body temperature which will prepare you for the follow-
ing vigorous activity, will help to reduce risk of injury, and will help to reduce muscle
soreness.

WARMUP OPTIONS

ANYWHERE HOME OR CONFINED SPACE


Jump Rope Jump Rope
Moderate Running Jog in Place
Jogging Side to Side Jumps

Once your warmup is done, you will be ready to do a light stretch, then go into your
workout!

COMMON

Problem Areas
Every person has certain areas or things about their body they would like to fix. A
healthy diet and exercise will fix a lot of them, but I would like to go over some of the
more common issues and give some insight on how to handle each of the following
problem areas:

• Cellulite • Water weight


• Belly fat and abs • Legs, thighs and hips
• Arms

Prepared exclusively for jez.balbontin@gmail.com Transaction: 0013488373 67


#ANNAVICTORIA

Cellulite:
Cellulite is nothing more than fat beneath the skin that appears bumpy because it is
being pushed against connective tissue. Cellulite is a complex problem with multiple
causes. Tweaking one little thing in your daily routine or habits will not likely cure all
of your cellulite woes, but know you are not alone! Cellulite is not directly linked to
weight or size, it is also present in underweight, average, and overweight people. For
some, it is just more visible than for others.

Common causes: Dehydration, poor diet, fad diets, lack of exercise, sitting for
extended periods of time, poor circulation, genetics, hormones, anxiety and stress.

Possible solutions: Healthy dieting with exercise is by far the most long-term,
sustainable solution. Creams and exfoliators that can help to temporarily reduce the
visibility of cellulite do exist, but this is temporary and it can get expensive.

Belly fat and abs:


This is a two part topic. If your body type stores fat in your stomach area (as mine
does) then in order to see your abs, you need to reduce your overall bodyfat
percentage. Remember, Spot Reduction doesn’t exist, so doing sit-ups will not burn
fat from your belly any more than squats will. Anyone can build abs, but will you be
able to see those abs?

Belly fat storage is also directly linked to your diet. So even if you are doing a total
body workout routine, yet you don’t have a healthy and balanced diet, it will be quite
difficult to reduce your belly fat. Abs are absolutely made in the kitchen!

The best way to slim your belly and see those abs are to have a healthy diet, drink
plenty of water (3-4L a day if you are exercising), with a total body workout each
week, and a bit of patience. Belly fat can be extremely stubborn and it takes a lot
of dedication and consistency in your diet, but you will see progress as long as you
don’t give up.

Prepared exclusively for jez.balbontin@gmail.com Transaction: 0013488373 68


#ANNAVICTORIA

Arms:
Similar to legs/thighs/hips, Spot Reduction doesn’t exist so doing arm exercises will
not necessarily burn fat from your arms. As you do arm exercises, you will be toning
and sculpting your arm muscles. Once you get your body fat percentage lowered, you
will be able to see that lean, toned muscle which will give you beautifully shaped
arms!

It’s totally okay to have a specific body part in mind that you want to improve; we are
all human! But just remember this will happen naturally and most efficiently through
a total body workout routine and healthy diet. Try not to focus so much on one part
and focus on your entire body being toned and healthy! This is what will give you the
most results, including in your problem areas. Limiting your exercises to only your
problem areas will leave you over-worked and under-rewarded.

Water weight:
If you tend to bloat and hold a lot of water weight, you will want to be sure to pay
special attention to your water intake. The more water you drink, the more water your
body will release and therefore will reduce bloat.

Aim to drink 2-3L of water a day if you are not exercising, and 3-4L of water a day if
you are exercising.

In the beginning, it may be difficult to drink that much water but each day it will get
easier. You also may feel a little more bloated than normal the first week due to all
the extra water intake, but this is because your body is adjusting to the new diet and
activity level changes. After the first week you will notice a significant reduction in
water weight and water retention in your body.

Tip:
Eat foods that are natural diuretics and high in water content like asparagus,
watermelon, celery, cucumber and zucchini. This will help give your body more water
and release more water while retaining the vitamins and nutrients that are in the
foods.

#ANNAVICTORIA

Legs, thighs & hips:


Remember that Spot Reduction does not exist so you cannot do only leg exercises
and expect to lose weight only on your legs. If you are wanting to lose weight and
gain muscle tone, this will happen naturally through a total body workout. Doing leg
exercises like squats and lunges and the circuits in the FBG will help you to tone your
legs meaning build lean muscle, and burn overall bodyfat at the same time, including
from your legs.

bringing your left knee up to your right shoulder. At the same time, pull your left
shoulder up to your right knee. This will help to maximize the crunch.
2. As you proceed with the exercise, your legs should be alternating in a fluid mo-
tion, as if you were riding a bike. Simultaneously, you should be alternating the
crunch between each shoulder.

• It is important not to put your hands behind your head through the exercise. This
can put extra strain on your neck and spine so be sure to place your hands at the
sides of your head, and your elbows flared out, as seen in the picture below.
