Bikini Beach Body - Kayla Itsines
Has anyone purchased the bikini beach body by Kayla Itsines? I started following her on IG and it seems like a lot of people get good results and really transform their body.
To give a little background information, I am in good shape - I try to eat well and I exercise 5-6 days a week for 30-90 minutes. I do a mix or cardio and weight training, but I have not seen any improvement in my strength/muscle tone. Many of the women she highlights seem to be in a similar situation to me and they have really increased their muscle tone, which is what I am looking to do. So I am wondering if anyone has used her programs and if so, have you had success?
TIA!

Re: Bikini Beach Body - Kayla Itsines
I'm sure it works.
Here's the thing about ALL of those programs - hers, beach body, etc. It's all about having a plan, and putting in the right amount of effort. A plan for your diet and a plan for your exercise. There's no magic formula that these people have, it's just getting people to be consistent and maybe a little of doing the right balance of exercises.
If you think it's a program you'll stick to and be consistent with - go for it.

Thanks! That's what I figured. I think the combination of exercises is what will help me, but it's a lot of money and that's why I am hesitant to bite the bullet. I know I will stick with the program as I am dedicated to working out. I'm really not a "skip a day" type of person - I worked out every day when I was pregnant and started walking daily once my DS was 1 week old. I also think the meal planning with help. My main problem is that I am a grazer. usually graze on healthy foods, but it still all counts.

There is definitely value in the program design and the way the exercises are put together - as opposed to just going to the gym and guessing what order, how many reps/sets, etc.
I would suggest researching a few programs, looking closely at the negative reviews - are they valid complaints or are people just lazy? - and seeing if it's worth the money. Or if maybe there's a better program you.

There are few that have very similar workouts. I have read reviews on a bunch and they are seem to be the same and people get the same results but the biggest difference is $$$$$.

If you're looking for another option check out the Fit Girls Guide on Instagram. I did the 28 day jump start and I liked it. The exercises might be a bit easy for you but I loved the meal plan.

I did the second circuit yesterday. It really focused on triceps, shoulders, and abs. I almost didn't make it through the second set of circuits.
On a positive note, my legs are no longer killing me from Saturday. Stupid DOMS!
I've been loosely following her food guide and I am actually always full. It is pretty basic and just says you should have x amount of carbs, proteins, healthy fats, etc.
