Sizzlin End of Summer Deals

There are some PRETTY wicked NEW things coming out on Team Beachbody in the coming months and NOW is your time to be sure you will have full access to it all. 

How many of you talked about getting your "summer body" back at the beginning of the summer? 

I know before I started my journey I was all about that, it was this vicious cycle of excitement, week long dedication of the gym and what I thought was healthy eating then, ooo a party, ooo cake, ooo wine... you feel me? 

The summer is meant for living it up. Drinking those fancy drinks, enjoy cold beer on hot days ( not me as I don't drink anymore :p), enjoying BBQ's, parties, s'mores. However, I am firm believe NOW in living a healthy lifestyle WHILE enjoying life the way it should be! 

Creating healthy habits takes time and if you start at the beginning of the summer you might not be in that 35% that continue on. Building a healthy lifestyle and healthier habits is done NOW. Fall-Spring. That way when the summer comes around again you can take it on without the guilt and no that you won't jeopardize your health because you have the tools in your tool box! 

There are some great deals on through Sept.30th to help get you on your way to creating a healthy life <3

#TheLIIFT4Life Mama's Summer Bootcamp



MAMAs listen up. I got you. I totally know the feeling of needing some time to yourself but feeling the #MomGuilt creep up hard. Ive been there too. 

Here is the thing though...because the mom guilt, I let myself get WAY out of control with my health. Like in denial hard about what I was eating or not eating and my mindset, my weight, the way I felt about my body, EVERYTHING. 

Once I hit rock bottom... Like 235-240lbs(I never shared that with anyone yet out of my whole 3.5 year journey because that is HOW in denial I was about it...) on my 5'4 frame, I realized... "DANG girl pull your head out of your butt and DO something instead of WISHING about what you want!" So I did... and girl, it isn't easy but HECK to the YES is it freakin WORTH IT!! 

I want you to feel the way I feel now! I want you to feel in control again and to understand that diets straight up don't work.. There is a mentality shift that needs to happen for lifelong results and by sharing what I have learned so far and being there for you no matter what I KNOW you can get there and WILL get there. 

LIIFT4 is a great program to start out with especially during the summer months. It is about 30mins a day and only 4 days a week for 8 weeks, which allows you to a create healthy fitness routine while still enjoying camping, beaching, swimming, gardening, marshmallow roasting, whatever it is you do during the summer! 
Along with this fitness program comes a nutrition guide, now you don't need to follow it but you know what they say, "Abs are made in the kitchen." and let me tell you there is 100% truth to that statement! I will bring what I have been learning about nutrition and using food for the good instead of making it out to be the bad guy into the group as well. 

This program doesn't officially launch until October 1st but MAMAS, I want YOU to join me for my FIRST test group that is starting July 16th. ( If you sign up before July 10th you can do a 4 day prep challenge with me!)

There will be a PRIZE for the mama who gives it her all also that may consist of some pampering (wink wink nudge nudge) 

I am looking forward to building a wicked relationship with you and watching you transform your mind, body and soul for the better! 

Fill out the form below for all the deets! 

**OPEN TO CANADA, UNITED STATES and UK!

80 DAY OBSESSION

Introducing the newest program to our VIRTUAL STUDIO!






Autumn Calabrese's new program is designed to help you burn fat and lean out. Below is a look at what you can expect from this hot new at home fitness program before it comes out January 15, 2018.

What is 80 Day Obsession?

This program is a streamable at home program that promises you a nice round booty and flat abs at the end. Sounds ridiculous right? No lies my friends no lies. I have seen some awesome results from the test groups and will show later in this post. While Autumn is no stranger to creating at home fitness programs,  this one is designed for advanced exercisers who want to lean out and tone up. She is taking this program to a whole new level by filming 80 different workouts! So for those of you who get bored and can't seem to get excited about doing the same weeks over (like me) now you don't have too! Each day is something new!

Autumn mentioned that "it's all about the right workouts in the right sequence plus a target approach to nutrition"


Who is 80 Day Obsession Designed For?

I mentioned this program was created for "advanced exercisers" however if you fall into any of these below and NEED a program like this to keep you on track then its for you too.

Anyone who is wanting to:


  • build a leaner and shredded body
  • add curves without bulking up
  • get those flat abs (mamas if your like me you just want to find them again!)
  • get an extreme workout in at home while the kids play or baby naps

These workouts range from 45-60 minutes per day (at least you will know and can plan out your ideal time) and they are 6 days a week. The nutrition plan is macro-calibrated by a professional to get the max results each week.

Not going to lie to you and say it will be easy, because it won't be! You will be training like a pro and working with a super trainer that has helped change the lives of many! 

So will it be easy?? No, but it will be dang worth it!



Here are some results from the test group! 


Jamie N. has already lost 5 pounds and 10.5 inches in 27 days with 80 Day Obsession! "Thank you Autumn Calabrese! These 80 Day Obsession workouts are speaking to my soul. It's such a therapy session for me, and it's very much needed!" 


Joan C. has already lost 7.5 pounds and 11.25 inches in just 28 days! "I'm completely blown away by my 80 Day Obsession results so far! My favorite thing about the program is that Autumn is there doing every rep with you, laughing with you, struggling with you, and saying the right thing at the right time. It's incredibly motivating!"


Joyell H. lost 7.6 pounds and 3.5 inches in just 29 days of doing 80 Day Obsession! "80 Day Obsession has helped restore my belief in myself and what I'm capable of. Phase 1 was phenomenal. I can't wait to see what happens in the next 2 phases and beyond!"

** These are independent beachbody coaches and were part of the test group. Results may vary but keep in mind everyone works better as part of a group! Don't miss out on a spot to join our 80 Day Obsession Accountability group starting May 7th with prep week April 1st-6th and option to start A Little Obsessed April 23rd.

#ProjectYou 21 Day Accountability Group (June 5th)


If you have been trying to get a handle on healthy living but find it so hard to get a grasp on it then this will be the right group for you! This group features something a little different than our previous groups! Along with hundreds if other coaches running many similar groups at the same time we will all be focusing on a total body reset starting with the 3 day refresh.
This 3-day program of specially formulated shakes, easy-to-prepare clean meals, and healthy snacks has been scientifically designed to help you break the cycle of bad eating habits, lose weight, detoxify your body, and dramatically improve the way you feel without starving yourself!

The following week (Week 2) Shaun T is launching Shaun Week: Intense Focus! This is a seven-day, intensive, full-body boot camp developed by Shaun T to motivate you to dig deeper than you ever thought possible. Expect to be challenged, wiped out, and totally reinvigorated with cardio, intense strength conditioning, abs/core, and lots and lots of sweat. Shaun will tear you down, but build you back up better than before. ( don't worry there are modifiers or other programs that you can challenge yourself with if Shaun isn't your thing) If you liked T25, Insanity, Hip Hop Abs then you def don't want to miss this!
The week after that (week 3) you can play around to figure out the All Access to see all the programs and what will work best for you to continue on your journey. We will still have daily check ins and different coach posts throughout the remainder of the group as well!
All through this group you will be provided with health, fitness and self care ideas to help you create a LONG TERM lifestyle rather than just a quick fix to really get you creating your life by design, reaching your goals and loving yourself!
There are a few different options to join this group so comment below, send me a personal message via FB or IG (Contact info posted below) or follow this to the REQUEST INFO ON UPCOMING CHALLENGE GROUP page where you will put your email and name and I will send you an email within 24-48 hours ( currently have just a week old babe in the house lol so I will get to them asap!)

Beginner Tips for Strength Training!



I honestly used to be TERRIFIED at the thought of weight training. I didn't know anything about it and honestly felt really intimidated. It wasn't until I started Body Beast in the comfort of my own home with Beachbody Super Trainer Sagi Kalev, to help me realize that I am capable of lifting weights! 

After doing that program I started to do more research about women and weight training and am now pretty confident to lift! I am planning on doing another round of Body Beast in the fall! I would love if you joined me! 

Here are some tips to get you started!

1. Use your own body weight to start!

Strength training means using resistance to create work for your muscles. So if you get scared away (like I did) from using bars, dumbbells, those big crazy machines that seem super complex, there are lots of other ways to create resistance that use minimal equipment (chin up bar, resistance bands etc) to no equipment at all (squats, pushups etc) 





2. How many days should you weight lift to start out?

Ideally you should strength train 3-5 days per week but to start just go with 2 days so you don't shock your body. Cardio is just as important so be sure to continue on with cardio the other days as well. 

3. WARM UP

If is SO important to prep those muscles before you start EVERY TIME. Not only for strength training but for any type of exercise. You can utilize a foam roller to wake the muscles up and then find a 5 minute warm up routine to do. 

4. Don't focus on one muscle group.

You might see hardcore builders or trainers talk about "leg day" or "chest day" but in all honesty they work out everyday. For you just starting out with a couple days a week, you will get a better workout and maximize your caloric burn and muscles each session. This also allows the upper body to rest while the lower body works and so on during each set. 

Examples: Mountain Climbers + Bench Rows
                  Squats + Push-Ups
                  Walking Lunges + Lat Pull Downs
                  Bulgarian Split Squats + Incline Push-ups

5. How long should you work out each session?

Best would be to aim for 15 reps with 3 sets per exercise. Example. Start with 15 reps of Mountain climbers then give your body a quick 20 sec rest then 15 reps of the Bench Rows with another rest once you are completed. That counts as 1 set. Then repeat. To start your weight training session should be about 20 mins and to work up from there. 

6. What is the right amount of weight?

Each exercise will be different depending on your ability. Go for weight that feels heavy enough to challenge you but not to heavy that you will be struggling and totally effing up your form. PROPER FORM IS KEY! You should feel like your muscles were worked to the max after your 15 reps. If you are just whizzing through those reps and barely need a rest after then you should up those weights. 
*Rule of thumb- Lower body should use more weight than upper body. 

7.BE SURE TO HAVE A GOOD POST WORKOUT STRETCH.

It is just as important to stretch and cooldown after your session as it is before to really help those muscles. 

8. Be sure to drink plenty of water and refuel that bod. 

Like during and after any exercising your body needs to be replenished! Be sure to have a post workout snack. Carbs are good to replenish the glycogen stores main fuel sorce as well as the proper phytonutrients and proteins to help repair torn muscles (which will also help reduce soreness) I also go for my Pre and Post workout drinks that are derived from natural products and even safe for pregnancy!
