New Years Resolutions- Getting with the Program
In my case, considering how fitness programs will effect my clients three to six months down the line consumes a very large portion of my day. But by the same token, my own situation has remained in the back of my mind.
Ever since my Modelfit photoshoot, I have been "recovering" from the preceding intense three months of training. In normal speak, this means I have been slacking off on my fitness program and that is about to change.
With this in mind, my resolution to myself is to stop worrying about my fitness by planning far enough ahead to achieve my objectives in logical order. A form of time management, this means knowing when I will be losing fat versus gaining muscle and the type of training program I will be utilizing to do so.
Luckily all of this will be documented here for your interest-- and to keep me accountable. My goal is to pack on a bit of muscle while shooting in January and June. With this in mind, here is what my cycle is looking like so far:
January 1st-31st: Conditioning/Fatloss
Feb 1st-10th: Unloading
Feb- March 10th: Strength (Muscle growth focus)
March 10-20th: Unloading
March 20th- April 20th: Strength (Power/Strength focus)
April 20th- 30th: Unloading
May 1st-31st: Conditioning/Fatloss
First Thing's First:
Before any of this can begin, one important part of any program is an unloading period-- in which we back off volume and intensity to allow the body to recover-- every 4-6 weeks.
In my case, the 1st week of December will serve as my unloading period while the remainder of the month will be devoted to gaining a bit more muscle before hitting my conditioning phase.
With this in mind, I will be posting my workouts on a semi-weekly basis along with thoughts and impressions to give an idea of how things are progressing.

- IT Band

Day 1 (Angela) Day 60 Day 1 Day 60
"I have always been a person that gets bored with exercise when I dont see results. Modelfit workouts are always changing and really push me to my limit every time I work out. I lost over 15lbs in the program in my first month and I am doing things I never believed I was physically capable of. If you can make it through the first session, you will be hooked!"
- Angela Ramirez
Day 1 (Katie) Day 60

"I lost 22lbs in three months on the program and I like the fact that working out with a group kept me motivated throughout the program. My partners pushed me to do what I would not have done otherwise and that was one of the big pluses for me. Getting your butt kicked for an hour and then curse our trainer over a glass of wine (dont tell Chris) makes the whole experience more enjoyable. Modelfit has been great for me and the girls I have met through the group keep me motivated."
- Katie Stanton
Day 1 (Jen) Day 60

"One thing I really appreciate about my workouts is that I am never bored and never know
what to expect. I like the fact I have a fitness plan and nutrition plan and I feel the accountability at Peak has helped me to maintain my results (24lbs in 3 months) since starting six months ago. I am really enjoying this experience and feel supported by our group and my trainer"
- Jen Schwartz
