1

GO SHOPPING A visit to the grocery store sets the stage for a healthy week! For a fool-proof way to stock your kitchen, keep your focus on the outer perimeters of the grocery store. There, you’ll find nourishing foods like fresh produce, lean protein and healthy snacks. Our weekly staples include lemons, fresh herbs, tons of greens, almonds, coconut yogurt, salmon, chicken, sparkling water and of course, a little dark chocolate.

2

MEAL PREP It’s time to prep for success! We love planning our healthy meals and snacks on Sundays, but choose whatever day works best for you. Every week we want you to set aside a few hours to grill chicken or tofu, cook a batch of quinoa, chop veggies and portion out on-the-go snacks like trail mix! This is also a great time to make a batch of Perfect Fit muffins for the week. Take a look at your Tone It Up Nutrition Plan for delicious make-ahead recipes to keep your body feeling right & tight!

P OW E R U P W I T H P R OT E I N This macronutrient is a must when thinking about your healthy lifestyle, and it’s particularly important for replenishing your body after a workout. It’s made up of amino acids that your body needs to build sexy, lean muscles— not to mention keep your nails, hair and skin looking healthy. As a huge bonus, including a little bit of protein throughout the day helps your physique get and stay lean by balancing blood sugar levels and keeping snack attacks at bay! Stay FIT TIP: Start the day with a protein rich breakfast like a Perfect Fit Smoothie or Pancake to help your body fuel up for the day ahead.

WAT E R As the weather cools, sipping on water may not be as much of a focus as during warmer months. While your body may not crave water the same way it does in the summer, your beautiful body needs to stay hydrated. Dehydration causes fatigue and unhealthy cravings, but that’s not the worst of it. When your body is dehydrated, it can’t burn fat efficiently, meaning your hard work won’t pay off. Start sipping, babe! We want you drinking at least 1/2 your body weight in ounces daily. If you weigh 150 lb., you should be drinking 75 ounces of water each day :)

5

P RAC T I C E G RAT I T U D E Feeling grateful makes you sexy! It’s true. Every morning we want you to start the day by thinking of 3 things you’re grateful for. It can be anything… your strong body, your BFF, family, your delicious breakfast. Bonus points if you write these 3 things down and look at your list throughout the day.

A G O O D M O R N I N G S TA RT S W I T H A B O OT Y CA L L ! We want you to wake up and sweat with us every morning! Morning exercise gets your body geared up to burn calories all day long. Research suggests it can help your body burn a higher percentage of fat than exercising later in the day. Most importantly, doing something first thing in the morning ensures nothing comes in between you and your goals! Check out ToneItUp.com every Sunday for your weekly workout schedule and follow along with it daily. We love getting a cardio session in first thing in the morning and following it with a toning routine, but we want you to find whatever works best for you and your schedule.

T H E K I N D O F G OA L YO U S E T M AT T E R S . Focus on setting process oriented goals. If your aim is to get healthier and fit into your favorite jeans, that’s awesome. But, you need to set process oriented goals too. This means, instead of thinking solely on that big aim, make it your goal to also complete the things you know will get you there. Say to yourself, I’m going to fit in my morning Booty Call every day and include twice as many leafy greens with my dinner. If you want to run a long race, make it your objective to increase your mileage each week. When you give yourself actionable tasks, it makes it simple for your mind to just go for it.

W R I T E T H E M D OW N ! Vision boards, lists, journals, post-its - use them all! When you physically write down your goals, you’re telling yourself: I’m serious about this one. Read over your list often and don’t be reluctant to change, alter or add to it whenever the mood strikes! Reading it over when you wake up in the morning and right before you go to sleep at night is optimal. Another great tip is to write your goals in present tense, as if they are happening now!

B R OA D E N YO U R FO C U S . Use the CharityMiles app and raise money for others in need while you sweat! When you need an extra boost and an added dash of energy, we want you to focus on factors outside of yourself. Complete that workout for your charity. Make a TIU approved meal choice for your team! Think of how motivated this #TIUteam will be once they see your completed workout, healthy meal and beaming smile on Instagram. Every action you take can positively impact others. Stay strong for the next 8 weeks for yourself, for your team, and for your charity!

What do we want you to eat? Tons of veggies, fresh fruits, lean protein and healthy fats are all important parts of your healthy lifestyle. Ditch processed foods and fill up on satisfyingly whole, nutritious ones instead! Bombshell warning: this is a total game changer. Eating this way will completely transform how you look and feel so much so that you may never treat processed foods the same way again! To help get you started we’re including an EXCLUSIVE SNEAK PEEK into the Tone It Up Nutrition Plan below! Our Nutrition Plan is a fully laid out nutrition system designed by us, your trainers! It shows you what to eat and when to get lean & tone up, along with over 250 TIU-approved recipes.

ORIGINAL PERFECT FIT PA N C A K E makes 1 serving

½ banana, mashed

2. Gradually stir in the remaining ingredients.

½ Tbs unsweetened almond milk ¼ cup egg whites ½ tsp cinnamon maple syrup, honey, or agave syrup (optional)

If you’d like to add in additional ingredients to make your pancakes one of the flavors listed on the next page, add them to the batter before cooking. 3. Spray your skillet with cooking spray and turn to medium low heat. Slowly and evenly pour the batter into the pan. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes on one side. 4. Using a spatula, carefully lift the edge and take a peek. If the underside of your pancake is golden brown, it’s ready to flip. Carefully flip your pancake and cook for another 3 minutes on the other side until both sides are golden brown and the pancake is cooked through. 5. Remove from heat and top with additional ingredients if desired. Drizzle with real maple syrup, honey, or agave and serve!

H O W TO C H O O S E S Y R U P Pancakes just aren’t the same without syrup. Most common pancake syrups aren’t maple syrup at all though! They are heavily processed and usually contain high fructose corn syrup - that’s just not good for you! Even the syrups branded as lite are loaded with artificial sweeteners. So look for 100% natural maple syrup or try using natural agave syrup instead.

CA R D I O See all of our favorite cardio routines under workouts on ToneItUp.com. You’ll also love the Exclusive Tone It Up Workouts designed to go along with the challenge. These routines are KILLER! They’ll accelerate your results, ensuring you feel fit and unstoppable! Every season we challenge you to complete a total of 100 miles of cardio! This is all about challenging you to get out and get active —whether you run, walk, jog, swim, elliptical or dance! 100 miles in 8 weeks amounts to less than 2 miles a day, which could mean just 30 minutes of cardio each morning. We want you to track your miles and share your journey to motivate each other on Instagram using the hashtag #TIUTeam. You can also use an app that donates money for every mile you run! What counts as ‘MILES’? Jogging, running, biking, swimming, dancing, jump roping and any additional movement you add to your day that makes you glow! For your daily cardio, choose your favorite activity or complete one of the routines HERE! Biking: Divide your miles by 3. ex. 9 miles = 3 miles Swimming: multiply by 3! ex. 1 mile swim = 3 miles Beach Babe DVD: 40 minute HIIT = 4 miles! Don’t go crazy trying to figure out the miles... as a general rule, about 10 minutes of intense cardio= 1 mile ;) *** Do not ‘run’ your miles every day. Remember to mix in spin class, boxing, biking, stairs, elliptical!! Whether you’re on the stairs at home, outside, on a spin bike or elliptical~ you can spring into summer! See more cardio routines here.

W H AT I S M Y B O OT Y C A L L WO R KO U T ? It’s not what you think. #BootyCall® is your morning cardio! This team wakes up 30-60 minutes early to sneak in a fat burning workout - a walk, jog, yoga, workout video - anything! Just get moving first thing to burn stubborn fat, awaken your heart and mind, break a quick sweat and to start your day off a few steps closer to your goals. We promise, this will become a habit. We are not naturally morning people, but this is something that is part of our day.. if we don’t get it in, we don’t feel right! If you want, coffee and a piece of fruit is best before your workout and then have your recovery breakfast after ~ Perfect Fit Protein Waffles or something from the Tone It Up Nutrition Plan! We’re counting on you in the morning. Imagine us waking you up and saying ‘DO THIS FOR YOU! You will not regret it’. Your alarm better be set!! :) Set it 30 minutes early & sneak it in! Studies show that people who workout first thing in the morning burn a slightly higher percentage of fat AND are more likely to stick to a program. It increases your core temperature for the rest of the day :) Do you prefer to workout later in the day? That’s okay too! Add 1 mile or 10 minutes to your cardio.
