So, what is the bikini series? It’s eight weeks of daily workout challenges & motivation from Tone It Up. The Bikini Series features a new workout video each week. My favorite part is that you can get rewarded for working out! The series features weekly prizes and grand prizes including a trip Playa Del Carmen just for signing up and following along! Also, if you are a member of the Tone It Up Nutrition Plan 8 week, meal by meal Bikini Guide to follow during the bikini series.
Here are three things I'm focusing on over the next 8 weeks. I think it is important to make changes that are sustainable, not quick fixes.
Three Tips for a Bikini Ready 2015
1) Workout daily. Aim to be active every single day, on rest days try to enjoy a long walk or a good stretch session.
2) Nourish your body. Enjoy fresh fruits and veggies as much as you want. Try and aim for an 80/20 ratio of whole foods and to processed/junk foods.
3) Set up for success. Schedule your workouts like an appointment and don't cancel. Prepare and plan meals ahead of time helps decrease the chance of hungry junk food impulses.
great tips! it's so important to make exercise and healthy eating a priority, and planning ahead makes it so much easier!
ReplyDeleteI wish that the bikini series wasn't so expensive! It sounded like a great thing to add to my current work out schedule... until I saw that price tag on it :( Can't wait to see how it works out for you though!
ReplyDeleteVery good advice! I never wore a bikini even when I was thin, but it's great advice for anytime :)

ReplyDeleteI think eating fresh fruits and veggies is so important and so easy to neglect! Can't believe we're already talking about bikini season - can't wait! #wowlinkup
ReplyDeleteI am feeling this series!!! Summer is not that far away and we had an extended winter so it is time to get it right and tight. Planning goes a long way. #wowlinkup

Ashley! So excited to be doing this series alongside you; I'm glad I found out you were doing this on IG! I think it's going to be fun, as always; my challenge is trying to make sure I have time to fit in my running schedule, alongside the TIU workouts, but I think I can make it work. I'm glad that they are going to give us the entire 8-week schedule at once so that I'll be able to plan. Can't wait to follow along with you!
ReplyDeleteIt is crazy summer is sooo soon, I majorly need to be better with exercising. Excited to follow along with you :)
ReplyDeleteHi,

I'm so excited that summer, beach weekends and boat rides are here! Xo, Stephanie
ReplyDeleteUh, I really need to start thinking about this. Love summer, but not bathing suits!
