We are going to head into a NEW direction and really kick things up. I am still a couple weeks away from my deadline with 4 pounds to go.
.
This week we are going to throw in a lot of compound movements and train circuit style to burn a ton of calories. This is my fav way to train.
.
If you aren’t new, now is the time to join us. The next couple weeks are going to be even tougher as we approach the two month mark!

    Flavia, you look great! What an inspiration you are 🙂

  • Roni says:

    Any help on someone that has their iron, testosterone serum, TSH and cortisol levels way high.
    I learned with all these things so high it will be impossible to lose weight. I have gained 20lbs. I eat clean, I exercise 4 to 5 days a week. I do high intensity work outs. But after the blood work test i found out with all my levels out of whack it is very hard to lose the weight. Any advice?

    Thank you,
    Roni

      Hi Roni~

      Have you had a full thyroid panel to detect Hashimoto’s? You need to see if you are having thyroid antibodies, also, high testosterone with high cortisol as well as thyroid imbalance can be a sign of PCOS. Do you have any cyst problems on your ovaries? DIM is a great product to help balance these issues you can research below. It is not only for menopause but can assist in high estrogen clearance. The liver needs support to flush the cortisol, estrogen, etc. You can contact a good nutritionist possibly holistic if Flavia cannot help with these concerns. Good luck, I feel your pain! Its frustrating.

    Is each workout (I.e. Workout 1, workout 2) meant to be done all together so that you do all 4 workouts every day or are we just suppose to do one workout each day?

    Thanks,
    Sarah
