ChaLEAN Extreme & Brazilian Butt Lift Hybrid: Week 1-4

Stella joining in my workout with her cone!

I have been a slacker on my updates! I am sooooo sorry, but happy to be back. It’s been a crazy month. So why did I decide to do these 2 programs together? I bought BBL back in 2012 while I was up at 3AM with the flu & saw the infomercial. I lasted 2 weeks and put it back on the shelf. I bought CLX back in October & haven’t had the chance to bust this one out yet. So basically, with the strength training from CLX & the booty workouts from BBL I figured this would be a great combo along with wiping the dust off them as well. You can pretty much pair any Beachbody programs to make it a hybrid, but I like to make sure they go hand in hand and make sense with what my goals are that I am trying to reach. My body is still transitioning the fat into muscle.

MY GOAL:  I don’t want to lose any weight but I do want to lean out and of course have Carrie Underwood legs…as does everyone else. J

Below are the workouts for the CLX Burn Phase & a mix of BBL workouts. I will admit, I didn’t do every single workout as scheduled. Our dog had surgery so we were tied up with keeping a close eye on her along with not sleeping and the 5AM alarm quickly turned into a snooze for me. Major props to all the mama's out there. I don't know how you do what you do.

I really love CLX. Before I started the program I bought 8 & 10 pound weights, I feel before this program is done I will need to increase again which means this girl is getting STRONGER!!!

Brazilian butt lift is AMAZING. It may feel & look funny while you’re doing these workouts but they really do work. You can feel the soreness in your booty the next day. When Leandro was creating the program, he wanted every muscle in your rear to get worked during that time. One of my favorites is cardio axe. You are dancing the entire time, while increasing your heart rate.

Meal plan 1 year ago.

 

Meal Plan:

I attempted new things the first week of this program & couldn’t do it. Here is what a typical day looked like for me during the BURN phase along with BBL.

Breakfast: 4 scrambled eggs, ezekeil toast, glass of milk
AM Snack: Rice cake & 2 slices of turkey
Lunch: Shakeology w/ Almond Milk
PM snack: Peanut butter fudge power bar
Dinner: ranged anywhere from steak fajitas to buffalo chicken wraps to pizza

I stuck to the same snacks throughout the 4 weeks. I am a creature of habit and makes it easy when I go to meal plan & pack my snacks for the week for work.

How my body is feeling:

 feel GREAT! I can feel my body changing and getting stronger. I am hungrier then I was before. When that happens I just grab something that has protein.

With going on vacation next week, I feel really great & I am impressed with how I look & feel compared to a year ago when I was still working with a trainer. It’s hard to believe how far I have come with myself since I have been working with Beachbody programs. I was the typical person who always said that these types of programs DO NOT WORK. I have given up on them 2 years ago & thought I would be in that same place again. It’s all in the mind and the motivation AND determination.
