INTRO
• #TheFitnessKi's Slim Fit Gym-Edition is a 10-week comprehensive
fitness program designed to build lean muscle while boosting your
metabolism, and burning body-fat. In addition to your program, I
have also provided a Nutrition Guide that explains what clean
eating means, teaches you how to calculate your daily calories, &
includes a grocery list to help you shop fresh!
• You’ll be training 4-5 days/week; and each week the workouts will
increase in intensity. With 10-weeks of consistent training expect a
flatter midsection, tighter arms and legs and a plump, lifted booty!
You can repeat this program as many times as you want, but make
sure to increase your weights or the number of reps so your body
never plateaus and you continue getting results! Also be sure to
recalculate your calories/macros about every 4-6 weeks, (as the
stronger you get, the more fuel your body will require)!
• I have divided the workouts into 3 stages: Conditioning, Muscle
Building, & Strength. The Conditioning phase will focus primarily on
muscle and aerobic endurance. The second phase, as the name
suggests, will focus more on building lean muscle that will increase
our meteabolism. The last phase will be a continuation of phase 2;
taking functional movements that we have already learned and
perfected, and trying them in new ways while increasing the
intensity.
• I have also provided videos for all the exercises in this program so
you’ll know exactly how to perform each movement. Simply click
on the name of the movement and a video will pop up in a different
window. Make sure your form is correct to prevent injury and to
receive max benefits from the movements. I recommend going
over the movements before your workouts, so you don’t waste
time viewing videos during your workouts.

EQUIPMENT
• Resistance Band Mini Loops [You an purchase a pack of “Limm
Bands” on Amazon or my website using my Promo Code:

• Access to a gym facility that has free weights [dumbbell], barbells
[for squats and deadlifts], free standing & cable machines [leg
press, lat pulldowns, pull-up machine, bike, jump rope, etc.]
• APPS NEEDED: Calorie/Macro Tracking App: iMacro or MyFitnessPal;
Timer App: Seconds ; Food Scanning App: Fooducate
BODY TYPE &
CALCULATING CALORIES
There are 3 main body types: Ectomorphs, Mesomorph, & Endomorphs. Each
body type responds differently to macronutrients, so we base our calculated
macros [Carbs, Protein & Fat] on our personal body types. Below, choose the
body type that BEST describes your physique. But first, let’s start with
calories.

1 CALCULATE DAILY
CALORIES
Click & go to http://www.superskinnyme.com/calculate-tdee.html. Follow
instructions to calculate BMR [how many calories your body burns naturally to
perform daily functions], then follow instructions to calculate TDEE [how many
calories your body will burn with physical activity included]. When calculating
the TDEE, choose Activity Level 1.55 (moderately active) if plan to hit all 3 of
the JustPeachy workouts in addition to 2 more days on your own.

• In order to lose 1lb a week subtract 500 to your calculated TDEE.


• In order to lose 2lbs a week subtract 1000 from your calculated TDEE.
• To maintain your current weight, while making lean muscle gains & burning
body-fat do not add or subtract anything.

Write down this new calorie number, if applicable. These are the amount of
calories you need daily.

2 CHOOSE BODY TYPE

• Ectomorphs are naturally the with skinny limbs, a high tolerance for carbs,
and a naturally fast metabolism making it difficult to gain weight (muscle or
fat). Their macro ratio would be best at: 50% Carbs, 30% Protein, 20%
Fats.

• Mesomorphs are naturally muscular and athletic with wider shoulders and
smaller waist. Gains muscles easily and can gain fat more easily than an
ectomorph. Their recommended macro ratio is: 40% Carbs, 30% Protein,
30% Fats.

• Endomorphs are naturally broad and thick with a larger frame. They gain fat
easily, making it difficult to lose weight. Low carb tolerance. Recommended
macro ratio: 25% Carbs, 35% Protein, 40% Fats.

3 CALCULATE MACROS
Click & go to https://BioKeto.com/macro-calculator
Click “Personalized Macronutrient Calculator” “Enter Daily Calories” (use the
calorie number you calculated in Step 1).
Go to “Adjust Ratios”. Set Carbs, Protein & Fats percentages using the above
ratios for the body type that best fits you from Step 2.
Right those numbers down & insert them into the ‘Settings’ of a Macro Tracker
app [“iMacro” or “MyFitnessPal”. I personally love iMacro]. Use either app to
keep track of Fat, Carb & Protein intake daily; these numbers make up your
calories.
When meal prepping, adjust serving sizes to fit your macros to make sure
you’re not overeating which will slow down your results.

SUPPLEMENTS
• If you’re vegetarian/vegan or if you don’t think you get in
enough protein from meat, I recommend investing in a good
Protein powder. I recommend vegan protein powders,
whether you’re vegan or not, because it Sprouts, Whole
Foods and Fresh Market also sell natural protein powders as
well. Make sure your protein powders don’t have many
ingredients; usually the more ingredients, the more-
processed and less natural it is.

• EAAs [Eyesential Amino Acids]: **Optional; recommended


for vegans and vegetarians who can’t get most of their
protein from meat

• Creatine: Natural supplement used to build muscle, increase


strength and increase overall athletic performance. It boosts
the formation of protein that creates new muscle fibers,
thus speeding up muscle growth, which will in turn increase
your metabolism. I HIGHLY recommend this supplement,
especially if you’re vegan/vegetarian. It is available in power
and pill form. Make sure the only ingredient is creatine.

• I recommend downloading an app called “Fooducate”. It


basically gives every food item a “grade” from A+ to F. I use
it whenever I go grocery shopping, if I’m unsure if something
is clean or not. You just scan the barcode and it’ll tell you if
it’s healthy or not. Don’t get anything below a Grade B+.

• I also recommend downloading an app called iMacro or


MyFitnessPal to help you track your calories & macros to
make sure you’re eating enough food.
TRAINING TIPS
• PUSH YOURSELF! The goal here is to gain lean muscle in order to
increase metabolism. If a weight feels too light [if you’re not struggling on the
last 3 reps it’s too light] go heavier by 5-10lbs pounds].

• TRACK YOUR WEIGHTS! Keep a small book, or use your phone to


keep track of what weights you use for all movements, so the following g
week you can try to increase weights. At least, make it a goal to increase in
weight every week.
• PAY ATTENTION TO REST TIMES! I have given rest time for every
movement! Keep a timer with you to make sure you’re not going over in
Rest!
• I recommend wearing FLAT-footed shoes while doing leg exercises.
[Barefoot is better]. Running shoes are okay, but flat shoes, like Vans or
Converses will help your form drastically! Make sure your feet stayed planted
on the ground, and you’re pushing through your HEELS, not toes! Your heels
should NEVER leave the ground while performing squats, lunges, deadlifts,
etc. If you can’t wiggle your toes while you’re deep into your squat, shift your
weight to your heels! Remember: FORM IS EVERYTHING. We only count
GOOD reps with GOOD form. TIP: Record form & post to Facebook group
so I can critique form.
• Keep your core tight! [Imagine someone bout to punch you in the
stomach, & you tighten your core to soften the blow. This is what I mean].
Keeping a tight, rigid core will prevent back pains/injuries, stabilize your spine
and torso, and will give your abs a workout as well!
• STRETCH & NEVER SKIP WARM-UPS! After EVERY workout, for at
least 5 minutes.Your muscles will be sore. Stretch them out! [Arms too!] I
HIGHLY recommend using a Foam Roller. Slowly roll your legs, back, butt,
pausing where it hurts the most, then continuing to roll. Imagine you have
little knots in your muscles that you’re trying to roll out. This will hurt a little,
but will feel great afterwards and the next day!

WORKOUT NOTES
& LEGEND

• SETS. The number of sets & reps are listed for each
movement. Knock out as many reps as you can, until
muscle failure or when form begins to break. We only
count reps with good form!
• WEIGHT. Always begin with a comfortable, but
challenging weight. Stay at same weight for all set of a
movement, and try to increase weight the next time that
movement is scheduled during a workout.
• *REP RANGE. Each exercise has a "rep range." When
you are able to reach the maximum rep amount for each
of the 3 sets, add weight the next time you perform that
exercise.
• REST TIME. Each set contains a certain amount of rest. It
is imperative that you abide by this time limit to ensure the
best results.
• Some workouts will include “SUPERSETS” indicated by
“1a” and “1b”, etc. Movements in a Superset are to be
completed back to back with little to no rest, until all
movements in the set have been completed.
For example:
1a. Squats: 3x12 1b. Push-ups: 3x10, means perform 12
Squats, then immediately follow squats with 10 Push-ups
= 1 set. Complete a total of 3 sets.
• DB= Dumbbell
BW= Bodyweight
SA= Single-arm
SL= Single-leg
• For single-leg or single-arm movements be sure to begin
with the opposite leg/arm each set.
• Be sure not to skip the warm-ups. If your muscles begin to
feel really tight during a workout, stop, stretch them out
then continue.
• Make sure your form is correct. If you feel like your form is
wrong, record yourself from 2 angles and email/DM me for
possible correction!
