Sexy Back Boot Camps Throws Down 20 Day Challenge

Why?

Why do you kick butt tworkin' on your fitness with us?

Why do you twork it out so hard, and then give up when away from the training session?

What is your purpose? Why are you here?

I want to know your answers down below.

Leave me a comment.

When you make a public announcement about something, you let the world know that you are doing something.

When you do this, you put a sense of worth behind what you say.

For the next 20 days, you will have a challenge every single day. A few challenges.

Day 1 Challenge: Put the scale away. You can only use our scale. Some ladies are on there two or more times during a 24 Hour time period.

Also, consume less than 50 grams of carbohydrates three days per week, for a "NO" carb cycling.

You will have to increase your protein and healthy fat intake on these days.

Lastly, plan your cheat days for nutrition every week.

It's better to plan, than to just eat, eat, eat.

And ask yourself, why did I cheat? How did I feel at the time? Was I depressed?

Super, extra hungry? Sad? Mad? Bored? Were you not prepared?

When we say "cheat", we don't mean pizza, margaritas, beer, then dessert and wine all in one sitting.

I mean one frappuccino from Starbucks (which can be a ton of empty calories) or one donut a week.

So, the next time you come across this similar situation again, you will be better prepared on what to do.

How will you accomplish these challenges?

This is the first day of the 20 Day Challenge of Sexy Back Boot Camps.

How will you do?
