Before You Start

1. i recommend that you download an interval timer


for your phone for when you require one (eg Finishers)
- I use an app called ‘SIT’. It’s free and really easy to use!

2. please download a photo collage app


to compare your start images with your final and/or halfway images.
I recommend the free app "Layout" as it doesn't add watermarks.

3. i have built an incredible community with thousands of women


so please join the “FitQueen Community” Group on Facebook. It’s a great
place for discussion topics, asking questions and general support f rom

Warming Up &
Cooling Down
Warming Up
There are many variations and personal preferences for warming up. I recommend going for
whatever makes you feel warm, loose and ready to go! I like to do some dynamic stretching
(stretching and moving to prepare the muscles I’ll be using in the workout) or jump on a
treadmill for 5-10 minutes. Keep it short and sweet!

Cooling Down
Don’t underestimate the cool-down at the end of your workout. You’ve worked so hard, take a
few minutes to relax and stretch out all of the major muscles you trained.

A cool-down focuses on static stretches which capitilize on your already warmed up muscles
allowing your joints to move through a fuller range of motion. This is accomplished by holding
stretches for a longer amount of time, thus slowly increasing your flexibilty by bringing your
body into a deeper stretch each time.

Just a few minutes stretching will help a lot with muscle repair and recovery. Hold each position
for 10-45 seconds.

There is not much need for a huge


amount of additional cardio
throughout this Challenge! I would
prefer for you to push yourself hard
in your sessions, then spend
endless hours doing cardio.

sessions per week. You could do outdoor
HIIT!

Your HIIT sessions should be no more


than20-25 minutes long. I suggest
something like:

SPRINT 20 seconds WALK 60 seconds


Repeat for 20-25 minutes

Note: You can adjust these times based on


your fitness level. You can increase your
sprint time or reduce your walk time, do
what feels good for you.

You can also utilize the HIIT workouts from


your My Day, My Way eBook.

If your goal is LEAN GAINS:


You could incorporate an extra 1 - 2 outdoor
walks per week (45 minute walk).

If you don’t love walking, you’re welcome to


do another outdoor cardio choice that you
enjoy - such as swimming or cycling.

Your workout guide is broken into


three phases:

Week 1-2, Week 3-4, Week 5-6

The same workout split will be used the


entire 6 weeks, however you will get a
brand new workout routine with lots of
new exercises every 2 weeks.

As you can see we are going to be focusing


on either building that bubble butt and
sculpting those abs every day!
