Kick Start Fat Loss Balbriggan 2.53

Kick Start Fat Loss™ (KSFL ®) is a way of life, a lifestyle that is very simple to adopt, has numerous benefits, and that gets consistent, sustainable results! KSFL is not about being on or off a diet – the primary goal of KSFL is to educate & empower our clients with all the latest updates and research about fat loss, nutrition & exercise so that they can achieve optimum well being through improving nutrition, health & fitness

There is an initial detox which can be quite challenging, especially in the first week, as you're eliminating all those nasties that your body has been consuming for a long time, & this can initially affect your energy levels, your mood and just how you feel in general. BUT .... once your body adjusts which can take varying times for different people you WILL start to reap the benefits of which there are many:

· reduction in lbs, inches & body fat

· Improved body composition

· improved sleep patterns,

· more consistent energy levels

· an increased feeling of well-being

· clearer skin

· balanced hormones

· increased mental alertness

· improved immune system

· greater vitality & zest for life

· positive mindset

KSFL consists of a Weekly Club Session plus online workouts, support, recipe & meal planner ideas, access to the closed face book group for KSFL in your area as well as the KSFL UK LIVE group, plus access to the member’s part of the main KSFL website, & you get a goody bag & manual too!!!

KSFL Weekly Club session

This includes a weekly optional weigh in (done discreetly), a 15 minute educational and motivational talk/discussion – examples of topics covered include Good vs Bad Carbohydrates; Why sugar is the enemy in fat loss; Effect of Alcohol on fat loss; Hormones and their role in fat storage and loss.

KSFL Nutrition

Kick Start Fat Loss focuses on basic ingredients, we advocate putting your own meals together as much as possible and ditching packaged food. This ensures that you are not eating processed, packaged food, cereals, breads or “low fat” food that contains hidden sugars, additives and preservatives. KSFL™ encourages cooking meals from scratch using good quality ingredients & it doesn’t have to be time consuming or difficult. With a little planning you can come home to prepared, nutritious, fat burning food that is low cost and take healthy food with you when you are on the go – investing in a slow cooker is a must!

You are provided with a shopping list on which there are loads of foods including meats, fish, vegetables, eggs, and low sugar fruits. For vegetarians there are additional options. You will be eating a clean diet for 14 -28 days then introduce a cheat meal where you can eat, and drink anything you like. It is extremely simple to follow and very straightforward. It is NOT a no carb lifestyle plan - there are plenty of carbs but ... they are of the good, healthy variety and, if you eat enough of them, your energy levels will be absolutely fine - remember vegetables and fruit are carbs too!!!

Every week you can talk to the other KSFL members, plus your KSFL Leader, to help to plan your meals and exchange recipe ideas so you feel confident and well prepared. There are lots of recipe ideas provided for you and then when you do start to feel more confident you can start creating your own & add these to the list.

KSFL will teach you exactly how to do this and how your body’s sugar levels and hormones play a huge part in your fat loss journey.

KSFL Exercise

Each KSFL class includes a HIIT exercise session, where you do a warm up then a 25 minute full body interval training workout – you perform an exercise for 40/45 seconds then you have a 15/20 second rest. The beauty of this style of class is there are no complicated moves or choreography & there are modifications for all fitness levels so it’s suitable for different abilities. All you need to wear is loose comfy clothing, a sports bra and trainers & bring some water with you.

You will also have access to 10 minute workouts online through the KSFL main website which you can do in the comfort of your own home.

KSFL in Practice – The 4 Phases of Fat Loss

Phase 1 - Detox

Initially you start with 28 days which is the time when you do the detox in order to optimise the fat burning process and achieve all the benefits listed previously. In order to achieve the maximum benefits of doing the detox we ask that you stay as much as possible to it for at least 14 days and preferably for 28 days. You can introduce a cheat meal at 14 days, which you can repeat at days 21 and 28 or thereabouts depending upon if you have a night out planned, a special celebration and so on, or you can wait until you get to 28 days to have your first cheat meal.

Phase 2 – Reaching your goal/Continuation

Having completed the 28 days you then move into the Reaching your Goal/Continuation phase, dependent upon whether you have achieved your goal or not – if not you can continue on detox with added weekly cheat meal until goal has been achieved. It’s all about finding a balance and discovering what works for you as an individual which is where, on KSFL, we will help and guide you through the minefield of information that exists to ensure that you are doing what is right for you.

This is a CRUCIAL stage of KSFL ensuring your results on detox are increased and your new eating habits are enforced plus, understanding how to add in your favourite foods and cheat meals. There is a method to adding in foods correctly after detox to ensure the weight doesn't creep back on and you continue to lose body fat and inches.



PHASE 3 – Maintenance and Lifestyle



Once your goal has been achieved you will be issued with the Maintenance Plan Booklet looking at the various options to help you maintain your goal weight. There are 3 different methods to ensure your weight loss, inch loss and fat loss are maintained for life. Living the Kick Start Fat Loss lifestyle means you can eat and drink your favourite foods, create clean substitutes and never miss out on a celebration, party, night out, meal out. On Phase 3 we show you exactly how to cycle your carbs, balance your hormones, cook clean alternatives, choose the right dairy products, and bake clean cakes and desserts.



Phase 4 - KSFL BOOST



This is when you have achieved your target and maintained it for a period of time when you can choose to come along to just the HIIT exercise session part of the class. This means you can still get a hard core weekly FAT BURNING class to help you maintain – and of course you will also be kept in the KSFL loop of changes and progressions.



How long you are in Phases 2 and 3 depends upon how quickly you reach your goal and how well you feel you are maintaining it. Each phase includes weekly recordings of measurements and weight plus HIIT training.
