JOINING A GYM IS DIVING IN
HEAD FIRST WITHOUT SO MUCH
AS A BASIC TRAINING PLAN IN
PLACE...
...those who do have some sort of plan tend to
stick to it religiously with zero progression - never
seeing the results they expect. If you really want
awesome results, you need an effective training
plan that increases in difficulty and progressively
grows more and more challenging.

ESTABLISH A
NEW ROUTINE

WHEN YOU FIRST HIT THE GYM,


YOU NEED TO KEEP ONE WORD
IN MIND ABOVE ALL OTHERS -
CO N S ISTEN CY.
Quitting after a few weeks won’t get you
anywhere. It’s much easier to remain consistent
with your workouts if you’re having fun - find
what you enjoy, combine it with effective training
methods and build it all into your future plans.

When you start seeing improvements to your


overall fitness, you’ll feel a massive boost in
motivation - a key driver in making the gym
a habit that lasts. That being the case, it’s
incredibly important to start getting results as
quickly as possible.

Building a solid foundation of strength is essential
for healthy fat loss - that’s why the first two
months should focus on this. Stronger muscles
burn more calories all the time, as well as making
you look good, feel good and increasing your long
term health.

5
easyGym Set to Sweat

No matter what your goals are, all sensible


fat loss plans should contain at least some
progressive resistance work, i.e. weights.
Progression essentially means lifting heavier
weights or doing more reps each week.
The same goes for cardio - doing the same
intensity repeatedly will lead nowhere.

WARMING UP &

GENERAL WARM UP
This warm up routine should be performed before
every training session. It only takes two minutes
and is just as important as any other part of the
session. If you skip your warm up you’re more
likely to get injured, so don’t skip it!

MOBILITY WARM UP
The majority of people have tight hips, stiff
backs and glutes that don’t work. So before
each exercise you need to do a mobility warm
up, which will enable your body to squat, push
and pull more effectively.

A mobility warm up is simply the exercise you


are about to do but using a lighter weight.
Perform one mobility warm up set using a light
weight prior to your main set.

18

COOLING DOWN
These cool down stretches should be performed
at the end of every training session. It only takes
two minutes and is just as important as any other
part of the session. If you skip your cool down
you’ll be much more uncomfortable, stiff and be
at a higher risk of injury.

NUTRITIONAL
ADVICE

THIS GUIDE HAS BEEN DESIGNED


TO HELP YOU ACHIEVE YOUR
FITNESS GOALS - IT WILL HELP
Y O U D R O P FAT , G E T S T R O N G E R
A N D F E E L G R E AT .
However, a plan is only as good as its
implementation. The effectiveness can be
doubled or halted all depending on what
you eat.

20
easyGym Set to Sweat

Good nutrition is central to your success - you


need to make sure you’re eating a mixture of
protein, fats, vegetables and naturally occurring
carbohydrates. Nutrition for fat loss is often easy
to understand, but difficult to apply. Focusing
on these basic guidelines should make things
simpler.

Protein is number one. Meat, fish, vegetarian


replacements and protein powders are essential
for ensuring your body gives up fat, not muscle.

Fats Fats keep you full, absorb vitamins and are


essential in producing hormones. Low fat can
mean low health, so think red meat, oily fish,
nuts, seeds, avocados and oils - all great ways of
keeping you healthy and satisfied.

21
easyGym Set to Sweat

Vegetables can be eaten in vast quantities


without taking in many calories. They should be
your close ally on a fat loss plan. A meal without
vegetables is a sure fire way to accidentally
overeat, so focus on getting them in at every
opportunity.

Carbohydrates raise blood sugar, so choosing


the wrong sources leaves your blood sugar low
and makes you hungry. Focus on sweet potatoes,
brown rice, fruit, quinoa and lentils rather than
pasta, bread and other factory-made foods. This
will make your fat loss more manageable.

If you stick to these fundamental nutritional


guidelines your food quality intake, energy levels
and sleep will improve overnight, making the fat
loss exercise itself drastically easier to tackle.

A few final tips to help with your decision making


- never go shopping when you’re hungry, stick
to the outside of the supermarket and don’t buy
foods with ingredients you can’t pronounce!

TRACKING YOUR
PROGRESS

WH EN PEO PLE SAY TH EY WANT


T O L O S E W E I G H T , T H E Y U S U A L LY
MEAN THEY WANT TO IMPROVE
THEIR BODY COMPOSITION BY
L O S I N G B O D Y FAT .
A common problem with people who want to
lose body fat is they judge their success by the
number on their scales.

Judging success by weight alone is unreliable


as your weight fluctuates throughout the week
- even the day! Water consumption, carb intake,
food intolerances and the menstrual cycle all
have an effect on your body weight but not
necessarily body composition.

23
easyGym Set to Sweat

A food intolerance will cause bloating and water


retention. A litre of water is around a kilo in
weight. This can make the difference between a
‘good’ weigh day and a horrific one.

B O D Y M A S S , H Y D R AT I O N L E V E L S
O R TH E PREVI O U S DAY ’S FO O D
I NTO AC C O U NT.
To track your true progress we recommend
a combination of scales, measurements and
photos. Take them every four weeks and try to be
as consistent as possible - weight and photos
taken in the same place, at the same time, in the
same way to give a true reading.

Remember - muscle is denser than fat. If you


drop a load of fat and put on some lean muscle
mass the number on the scales might surprise
you. Don’t worry about it. If you’re feeling better,
looking better, clothes are fitting better, your
training hard and eating right then you are
definitely on the right track – forget the scales!

WEEK 1 -
BASIC WEIGHTS

OVERVIEW & GOALS


Your first week is all about familiarising yourself
with new exercises and equipment. It’s also the
perfect time to get into the habit of recording all
the weights you use and how many repetitions
you achieve on each part of the workout.
Keeping track of your achievements is absolutely
vital for progression in the weeks to come.

Get set. Don’t forget to carry out a mobility


warm-up before using any weights.

WEEK 2 -
HEAVIER WEIGHTS & CARDIO

OVERVIEW & GOALS


The aim of your second week is to lift more than
your first week. You should be gaining more
confidence with the movements and beginning
to improve your fitness through increased
intensity. Look back at your weights from last
week. If you hit 12 reps on your second set, your
first set this week needs to be heavier. Just
make sure you can maintain good form - don’t
sacrifice technique for a heavier weight.

This week also sees the introduction of interval


training - working at high intensity for a set
period, followed by rest. This takes your heart
rate to a higher level than normal for short
periods, then gives it a break to allow it to come
back down. This type of training burns more fat
during and after the session. It also increases
the strength of your heart and lungs.

51
Part I: Forming a habit

Get set. Don’t be afraid to fail. Hitting 10 reps


is better than 12 - it just shows you’re pushing
yourself.

WEEK 3 -
HEAVIER WEIGHTS & HIIT

OVERVIEW & GOALS


This week we’re aiming to lift more, consolidate
your technique and improve your fitness level
by switching up the cardio. As always, we’re
looking to lift more weight than the week before.
We’re going to practice pushing yourself and
boost your confidence in the movements you are
performing.

We’re reducing the length of cardio intervals


so you’re able to do more work. By working for
one minute rather than two, you’ll be able to
perform at a higher intensity - you won’t need to
worry about running out of energy. We want your
exertion and heart rate to be higher than last
week. Pushing your limits will make you fitter,
stronger and leaner.

Get set. Remember to keep recording your


weights and reps as you make progress.

WEEK 4 -
INCREASED VOLUME & CHOICE
OF CARDIO

OVERVIEW & GOALS


Just like before, this week we’re aiming to lift
more than last week. One way to do this is to
reduce the number of repetitions. Now we are
four weeks into the plan, we can increase the
volume (i.e. the total you lift in a session) by
adding an extra set. This will make your muscles
work harder and burn more fat.

To keep your training enjoyable, you can select


the type of cardio you enjoy the most. Decide
between working hard and resting, or working
constantly at a slower pace - they both have
their own merits.

Get set. Choose cardio that works best for you -


whichever one you enjoy the most.

PROGRESS
CHECK:
END OF PART I
You’ve completed Part I - well done! Your body
is now stronger and you are more confident
at performing the lifts you’ve learned so far.
But this is just the beginning. To advance your
training we need to move you away from the
machines, put you on the free weights and get
you lifting heavier loads.

Don’t panic - free weights won’t make you bulky.


Muscle can only be gained with a calorie surplus
(i.e. eating lots). Keeping your nutrition in check
will ensure your muscle building stays down.
Also, as a woman, your testosterone levels are
likely quite low. This makes it impossible for most
women to easily gain as much muscle as men.
Just remember - progressively lifting weights is
the key to building a lean, healthy body.

127
Part I: Forming a habit

Give yourself a huge pat on the back for being


consistent and sticking to the task at hand. If you
haven’t been as consistent as you’d like, a new
month starts now. And with it, the opportunity
to improve any mistakes you made previously. If
you’ve stuck to the program and haven’t seen
any changes, it’s more than likely your diet is to
blame. Good nutrition is just as important for fat
loss as the physical training, if not more so.

OVERVIEW & GOALS


We’re going to kick off Part II by introducing
more complex movements into your training.
If you struggle to perform these, don’t worry -
alternatives will be offered. The overarching
goal of the next four weeks is to continue to
increase your strength and introduce more
variety into your cardio routine.

Get set. A brand new phase offers you the


chance to rectify mistakes made in the past.

INCREASED WEIGHT ON
COMPLEX MOVEMENTS

OVERVIEW & GOALS


This week we’re going to consolidate your
new movements and build your confidence at
performing them. Once again, we’re aiming to
increase the weight from last week. And just
like before, don’t worry if you don’t hit 10 reps.
Record your reps and weights, then use them
as targets you can beat next time. And if you
enjoyed one particular cardio option, feel free
to repeat it.

Get set. Genuine enjoyment is the key to making


real progress.

WEEK 7 -
REDUCED REPETITIONS FOR LIFTS
OVERVIEW & GOALS
This week we’re going to increase the weight of
your lifts and the overall volume (i.e. number of
sets) so your muscles become stronger. You’ll
also burn more calories during sessions and
outside sessions. The aim is to increase the
weight from last week - this is a necessity as
the required repetitions have been reduced,
which means you can lift more. As always, if you
enjoyed one particular cardio option feel free to
repeat it.

Get set. For real progress, remember to stick


to a healthy nutritional plan.

PROGRESS
CHECK:
END OF PART II
You’ve completed Part II and your body is even
stronger, leaner and firmer. Excellent work!

You have several options going forwards - it’s


up to you to discover what works best for you.
Part III will showcase different scenarios for you
to advance your strength, fitness and fat loss.
It’s important to find what you enjoy, but keep in
mind your training needs to be effective - you’ve
joined the gym to get results.

If you have an event coming up soon, now is the


time to really focus on your nutrition and get the
best result you can over the next 4 weeks. As
before, if you stuck to the plan and haven’t seen
any noticeable changes, it’s fairly likely your food
intake is to blame.

269
Part II: The next level

Congratulations again for finishing Part II and


sticking to your plan for 8 whole weeks. Even if
the weight isn’t dropping as fast as you’d like,
your body is still getting stronger. And this is the
best method for long term weight management
as a strong body keeps burning calories 24/7.

Part III: Mixing things up

WEEK 9 -
STRAIGHT SETS & HIIT

OVERVIEW & GOALS


Part III is all about showcasing the different
- but effective - fat burning options you can
utilise. This week follows a similar pattern to
the previous eight weeks, with the main focus
on increasing your strength throughout the bulk
of the session, followed by a separate cardio
section at the end in the form of HIIT or steady
state cardio.

Now you’ve established a solid strength base


we can increase the volume (i.e. total lifted
in a session) and introduce more advanced
exercises. The core work is condensed into two
sessions per week.

Get set. If you enjoy the strength aspect of


training, this week offers a great template to
follow over the months to come.

WEEK 10 -
SUPERSETS

OVERVIEW & GOALS


This week we’ll be showcasing the superset
technique, combining two exercises in sequence
with no rest between them. For example, doing
squats and going straight onto bench pressing,
followed by a rest. There are many options
when it comes to supersets - we’re going to be
focusing on four main areas.

The aim is the same - lift as heavy as possible


to get maximum benefit from the technique. But
be warned - due to the combination of exercises
you will really struggle to lift the same as you
have done previously. Your heart rate is so much
higher so your work rate will be compromised -
don’t expect to lift the same amount or progress
at the same rate.

Get set. Supersets can power up your routine


in record time.

HEAVIER CIRCUITS

OVERVIEW & GOALS


This week we’re looking at circuit training with
heavy weights. Combining four exercises in
sequence with no rest in-between is even more
demanding than supersets, so the weights used
will need to be adjusted accordingly.

Despite the extra demand, the aim is still to lift


as heavy as possible to get maximum benefit.
Again - be warned. Due to the combination of
exercises here you will really struggle to lift the
same as before, so don’t expect to progress at
the same rate.

Get set. Manage your expectations when


increasing the demands on your body at
this stage.

WEEK 12 -
LIGHTER CIRCUITS

OVERVIEW & GOALS


In this final week we’re going to use the
technique of circuit training with higher
volume (i.e. more repetitions with less weight.)
Remember - combining four exercises in
sequence with no rest is incredibly demanding,
so the weights will be adjusted accordingly.

Unlike last week, we’re actually looking to go


lighter here due to the increase in repetitions.
We’re focusing on the heart and lungs as
well as the target muscles being worked by
the resistance exercises. Again, due to the
combination of exercises here don’t expect to
lift the same weights as earlier in the plan.

Get set. Exerting more and more effort over


time will yield tangible results.

PROGRESS
CHECK:
END OF PART III
Congratulations! You’ve reached the end of
Set to Sweat.

Making it to the end of a 12-week plan is an


incredible achievement - you’re now armed with
a variety of different techniques for training your
body to achieve fat loss. You’ve seen how routine
variation is vital for long term progress. You’ve
found that strength - and not how many calories
you burn per session - is the best indicator of a
successful program.

Looking to your future training and maintaining


momentum, we recommend the exercises from
Week 9 as a good base point to keep returning to.
It will help you ensure your body is continuing to
grow stronger over time.
