Fitness Tips: Need to lose 5kg in 5 weeks

Hi Elle,

 

You poor thing! You must be feeling very frustrated. Firstly we need to look at your diet. There are many very fit, overweight people out there. Unfortunately being fit doesn't necessarily mean being skinny. With your diet I would recommend reducing your calories to 1200 per day. If you want a 'no-brainer' way of doing this, join 'lite and easy' whereby they deliver your week's food that is exactly 1200 cals per day.

 

With your training, 90mins running is great and will definitely work. Just make sure you are ramping it up alittle each week to accommodate your fitness improving. As for the bike riding, if it's outdoors, sometimes it can be hard to elevate your heart rate enough to make it worth while. I'd rather see you enroll in a really hard boxing class, or an indoor spin class (providing you really push yourself). 

 

Other tips:

 

I do offer online personal training. a five pack is $299, whereby I design your entire eating and training program and we meet once per week on the phone or Skype so I keep you on track. Click here for more info. 

 

We've got to get this 5kgs off you and have you feeling fabulous again!!!
