The Kayla Itsines bikini body challenge
Have you heard about Kayla Itsines yet? She's from where the kangaroos are from. You know that place, they call it down under... Yeah that's right, Australia! Well, this female fitness hero has compiled a Bikini Body Guide which we checked out.
Training guide
This is serious business! Kayla knows what she's talking about. Not that we expected differently of course! Her training guide consists of very diverse circuits which you have to do 3 times a week for about half an hour. We can do that! Right? There are 51 different exercises explained in the guide, amongst which our beloved squats, leg raises and burpees (not so beloved).
Eating plan
Looking at day 1, I see that we start with a bowl of oats (yummy!) and the first snack consists of veggies and peanut butter! I like this already. You eat 5 times a day and dinner often includes brown rice, chicken, feta and quinoa. Things we love!
However, the lunch does require a lot of food prepping. Unless you have access to a kitchen the entire day, you would do good to prep everything in advance. This can be time-consuming, but in the end it should be worth it! Check out the transformations of Kayla's clients - it's really amazing. I want that!
Starting this Monday, the #FITGIRLCODE team will begin with the Kayla Itsines Bikini Body Guide for the coming (at least) 5 weeks, but hopefully we will last throughout the entire 12 weeks. We will take some before pictures so we can compare in the end... Maybe one of us will dare to share her progress picture, so keep an eye on our Instagram!
