Fit Mom's Fat Loss Jump Start Workout
Attention busy moms! Team FitMiss athlete Kate Horney knows your time is limited. That's why she's formulated the Fit Mom Jump Start to help you:
- Discover the #1 Secret to Losing Fat
- Learn the key to getting the results you want
- Get started eating clean
- Reduce the time in the gym with maximum impact moves
Quick Start Guide
- Each day you will find a new workout on the schedule. Just watch the exercise videos for your daily workout.
- Check out the nutrition guidelines. Modify as you see fit and customize to fit your needs.
- On sprint day, you can do a sprint workout of choice. Here's how to set up your sprints.
- Make sure you balance your cortisol levels with leisurely walks. I know it’s easier said than done, but you really need to stress less! Why? Because high cortisol levels from stress impact your ability to burn fat. When possible, try to lower cortisol by doing restorative activities like leisurely walking and having quiet time to destress (even if it’s just 5 minutes!).
- The key to the success off this program is accountability! So be sure to share the Jump Start link with a friend and invite them to join you.
- Post your workout #sweatieselfie photos and photos of your meal each day and tag @beyondfitmom @iamfitmiss @muscleandstrength #fitmomjumpstart so we can see how you’re doing!
