What better time to start losing weight than today?
This 15-day workout plan for beginners is a great way to get in shape and shed pounds fast!
Maybe you have a big event coming up in two weeks that you want to look fantastic for, or perhaps you’re going on vacation and you haven’t paid attention to your body for a while.
The weight has slowly crept on and suddenly that gorgeous new bathing suit doesn’t look as good as it did when you tried it on in the shop that you bought it from.
It’s time to take stock of your weight and really focus on getting into shape, fast!
You’ve only got 15 days but it can be done.
What is needed is discipline, dedication and a program that really works.
Read on to find out how to get in shape in 15 days, for beginners.
1. Address Your Diet
First things first, you MUST re-assess what you’re eating.
If you aren’t eating right then you won’t lose weight.
You either need to think about your fat and carb intake or you need to cut calories.
For quick results, the best thing you can do is adopt a Keto approach.
This is when you cut carbs from your diet but you need to be vigilant.
There are no cutting corners with this one and it also means removing all alcohol.
The upside is you can eat fat but “good” fat, so avocados, nuts, olive oil, oily fish, etc.
You’ll find you can lose up to 10lb in two weeks on Keto (although initially, this is usually water).
Usually, your body uses carbs as its energy source but when there are no carbs available, it switches to fat, so it burns it off instead.
To get your body to do this, you remove carbs, your body then reaches a state called “Ketosis” and this is when it switches its energy source over.
It is very effective but it can make you feel lethargic for the first 7 to 10 days – bear with it if you want real results.
2. Drink Water
You must drink water. It’s essential for a healthy body and for weight loss.
Drinking 2 liters a day beats the bloat too and flushes out toxins and impurities.
If you’re holding water it is just added weight so help it move through your system.
You’ll also get a beautiful healthy-looking skin too. Win-win!
3. Embark On A Fitness Program
As well as eating healthily, you need to address your cardiovascular exercise.
There are lots of things you can do, let’s start with the easy wins first, those added exercises that you can easily slot into your daily routine for almost unnoticeable extra workouts!
Take The Stairs.
If you work on the 4th floor, don’t take the lift, adding in more leg work will help to tone your calves and improve your heart rate.
If you’re constantly up and down floors at work, imagine, that’s plenty of extra exercise!
Walk, Don’t Take The Bus, Train Or Car.
Wherever possible, use your legs instead.
Even if it means walking an extra bus stop or parking the car further away.
Just an extra hour of walking a week will burn an additional 250 calories (depending on the person)
Use Small Weights.
Buy small strap-on weights for your ankles and wrists and wear them as much as you can.
This speeds up your metabolism and increases your endurance.
4. Your Exercise Program
Now we’ve covered diet and “unnoticeable exercise”, we need to think about your exercise program.
The following is a tried and tested program that helps you to tone up and shift extra weight, in just 15 days.
It works 4 days on, one recovery day off and then back onto the program as well.
All you need to do is purchase or borrow a set of dumbbells of approximately 8 lbs and a gym mat.
Every day, there are three moves.
You need to repeat these moves in sets.
Rest in between sets for up to 90 seconds only and repeat, until you’ve achieved all the rounds.
Week 1: Day 1
Start with a brisk walk to get your heart rate going (15 minutes is enough) and then begin your workout.
10 X Squats
Stand with your legs hip-width apart, toes facing forwards and slowly drop your bottom as if you are sitting into a chair but hold it at chair height (you can use a chair if you want, just don’t sit on it, hover just above the seat).
Stick your bottom out as far as you can while keeping a straight back and hold your arms in front of you.
Repeat this 10 times.
12 X Walking Lunges
Stand straight and then take one leg forward into a long lunge, bring your other foot up to meet it and then use the “meeting” leg to move forward into another long lunge.

Try This Peculiar ‘Carb-Trick’ That Melts Up To 1 Pound Each Day
”All this by Flavor-Pairing?” I asked.
I met an old friend for lunch last month and I was super impressed with how good she looked.
She said, “It’s not so much about the Flavor-Pairing, but more about how it re-awakens what the Japanese call, ‘the weight loss doubling molecule’ which signals 22-hour a day fat-burning effect in the female body.”
Even though I was skeptical, I’ve been struggling with my weight over the last few years, so I gave it a shot and watched the same video she did.
Well, it’s only a couple weeks later and you know what they say about how “you can’t transform your body overnight”…
They’re right – it actually took me 16 days to lose 22 pounds.
Now it’s my girlfriends asking ME what I’M doing differently 💅
