DEANNA'S 10 WEEK PLAN:

My main goal is to change my body composition. I want to increase my muscle mass and loose some fat. The actual weight number isn't as important as the change in muscle to fat %.

I will be strength training 3-5 times per week. I will also be doing cardio 3-4 times per week. I will also be adding nutritional supplements and using the body bugg to calculate my calorie intake and burn.

Week 1-2 I will be doing a split body workout every other day and doing cardio every other day. The type of cardio will depend on the day. Some days I will run or bike and other days I will be doing a 15 min interval.

Week 3-4 I will keep the strength training the same except I will be doing heavier weights on certain body parts some days and other body parts on other days. I will kick up the intensity of the cardio.

Week 5-7 I will switch to a 2 day on 1 day off strength training. I will increase the cardio intervals to 18-20 min.

Week 8-10 I will stay with same strength training. Through out the challenge 1-2 of my workouts per week will be Pilates workouts.

NUTRITIONAL PLAN
I will eat small meals every 3-4 hours and drink plenty of water. I certainly need to cut out empty calories.

SUPPLEMENTS
Multi
antioxidant
calcium
Fat loss
muscle gain.
