This is the exact same protocol I use with both my one-2-one and group training clients …that has been proven to deliver fantastic results time and time again – don’t believe me? Ask to see the before and after photos from previous clients. Anyway, down to business. The Better-Body-Blueprint is super simple to follow, there are no calories to count, no points, no coloured days and no crazy shakes to consume! …Just unlimited amounts of fresh, healthy nutritious food! I’m positive that if you follow this no-nonsense, tried and tested health and fat-loss protocol, you’ll see PHENOMENAL results... The first part of the programme will probably be the toughest as we’re going to carry out a ‘cleanse’. This is designed to clean up your fat stores and improve your shape, energy and all round health. If followed to the letter, I GUARANTEE awesome results! No ifs, maybes or ‘only a little bits’ though - commit to it fully and be blown away – trust me here! Make sure you read this starter pack thoroughly then If you have any questions, just drop me a message in the Facebook group – I’ll aim to get you a reply as soon as practically possible.

Measurements

Taking your measurements is a fantastic way to monitor your progress. They’re best taken in the morning on day 1 before you begin; there’s a little table below for you to record them in or just write then down and keep them safe! Take them again half way through and, finally, at the end! Measurements

Chest Waist Hips Thighs Weight

Day 1

Day 14

Day 28

Take your waist measurement at belly button level, hips and thighs at the widest point. Photos Why? Because the camera never lies, we can use these to compare progress over the 28 days. If you start to struggle mid-way through the plan, take a look at your ‘before’ photo and compare it with where you are now – you’ll be one step closer to that dream body than you were then! Take one from the front, one from the side and one from the back – wear as little clothing as you feel comfortable in, I don’t want you to feel uncomfortable at all, so please just do your best. Remember the more you can see, the easier it will be for you to identify a noticeable result. Here’s a great tip one of my clients gave me. If you’ve got a bikini or a pair of shorts (maybe even a mankini) you want to feel comfortable in on holiday then why not take your ‘before’ photo wearing it? That way you’ve got something to focus on and you’ll see a fantastic improvement after the 28 days!

The nutrition guide!

OK, let’s get started…… So what exactly can I eat? Pretty simple really….

Unlimited amounts of fresh vegetables – MORE green than anything else! Note: The only vegetable I’d like you to avoid for the moment are white potatoes – sweet potatoes are fine.

Fresh meat (preferably organic) and poultry

Fresh fish

Nuts and seeds (not peanuts – cashews and macadamia nuts are my personal favourites)

Eggs

Good fats – such as olive oil and coconut oil

Butter – this must be unsalted and ideally grass fed (free range) organic butter, no low-fat spreads or ‘spreadable’ options – literally ‘proper’ butter!

Herbal teas

Water …and plenty of it!!

Fruit, dark skinned fruit is fine – berries are the best option (fresh or frozen)

Full Fat Greek Yoghurt

Goats Cheese

Brown or basmati rice Check out the Food Table for an extensive list of what you can eat. Use the daily meal plans provided throughout the programme as a guide, substituting food from the allowed list to suit your preferences. So now you know what to eat, what is it that I would like you not to eat? On the next page you’ll find a list of what I would like you to try and eliminate from your diet for the 28 days and a brief description as to why.


5

Here’s what I’d like you to avoid eating for the next 28 days….

Food To Eliminate Reason Why

Wheat - including bread and pasta. Simply because we cannot digest it and it spikes insulin - the fat storage hormone

Dairy - milk, cheese and low-fat yoghurt (eggs, butter, goats cheese and full fat Greek yoghurt are fine)

Dairy products are pasteurised and homogenised; both processes destroy the majority of the nutrients. Don’t worry about the calcium issue either – you’ll be getting more than enough calcium in your diet from the green leafy veggies you’ll be eating

Processed food - anything that has ingredients you can’t pronounce or have to microwave to cook

Anything that has ingredients you can’t pronounce or have to microwave is nutrition less and ‘dead food’

Breakfast cereal Breakfast cereal is killer to so has to go!!

Alcohol Alcohol is quite simply a liquid sugar! A toxin that your body cannot do anything with other than store it as fat – especially around the dreaded ‘love-handle’ area!!

Sugar and artificial sweeteners – cakes, sweets, snacks, diet drinks etc. etc.

Put quite simply, sugar makes you fat and ruins your health! Artificial sweeteners such as Aspartame are linked to hundreds of neurological disorders – check it out on Google!!

Tea and coffee

Caffeine elevates your cortisol levels - a stress hormone that is not only related to fat storage around your abdomen, but is also a catabolic hormone that destroys precious muscle

Healthy habits

Everyone has habits, some good some bad – what we will be doing over the next 28 days is developing some new ‘healthy habits’.

Here are the habits I’d like you to start with….

1. Bin the caffeine (tea and coffee) – caffeine over stimulates your adrenal glands, this causes an ‘over production’ of cortisol – a stress hormone that not only destroys precious muscle mass but is also responsible for fat storage around your abdomen. Switch to herbal teas with are naturally caffeine free.

2. Drink bottled water – no excuses here, you must drink an absolute minimum of 3 litres per day! Ideally you should be looking to drink 1 litre for every 50lbs of body weight. If you’re even slightly dehydrated your body will simply refuse to give up its fat! Simples!

3. Start your day with protein – the first meal you have each day, should contain protein as protein has only a small impact on insulin (the hormone in your body responsible for fat storage) compared with carbohydrates (fruit, toast, cereals, porridge). Too much insulin leads to fat storage around the ‘love handles’, an energy slump and cravings for more sugar. Stick to eggs, meat or fish for breakfast.

4. Develop a new morning routine, get up, drink a pint of water, do one of your workout sessions then eat breakfast.

5. Be prepared – there’s another old saying, fail to prepare and prepare to fail. The programme really is super simple, you’ll receive your weekly instructions at least a day before you need them – take a look at what you’ll need to eat each week, buy in and prepare as much as you can in advance. It takes nothing to throw an extra chicken breast in the oven in the evening, then cut it up and add it to a box of salad leaves for work the following day.

6. This will work for you – everything is based on science and proven results, all you need to do is to follow the plan!

How it works

The Better-Body-Blueprint is a plug-and-play nutrition system that’s super easy to use!

On the next page you’ll find a menu; just select one breakfast, a lunch and a dinner from the menu. You can even select a snack or two if you’re hungry throughout the day.

If you turn to page 16 at the end of this book you’ll see I’ve added a blank ‘Meal Planner’. Use this to plan what you’re going to have for each and every meal over the week. The better you can plan your week’s meals the easier it will be to stick to the plan and the better the results you will experience!

You can even print it off, pin it to the fridge and use it to help plan your meals throughout the week. If you want to take the stress out of planning your week’s meals, then why not make use of the weekly meal plan I’ve already prepared of you? You’ll find this on page 9.

I’ve also included recipes for every meal on your menu together with a shopping list on page 8, this will guide you through the supermarket shelves and take the stress out of shopping for the week – you’ll find all the ingredients to make all of the meals on this planner in the shopping list. One last thing – WATER, you must drink at least 3 litres of water (preferably bottled mineral water) each day over the program. You can, of cause, supplement this with herbal teas too! So what are you waiting for? Print out the shopping list, stick your menu and meal plan onto the fridge door and let’s take that first step together to that leaner, healthier, sexier body!!

Serve with a big green salad Oven-baked salmon with mixed veggies Ingredients (Serves 2)

Method

Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas mark 6

Use a large piece of foil to line a baking tray with enough overlap to cover the salmon.

Place the salmon in the tray and sprinkle the chillies, onion and salt and pepper over the top.

Drizzle with olive oil and wrap the edges of the foil to seal in the salmon, leave a pocket of air so the salmon can steam in its own juices.

Cook for approx. 25 minutes and serve with salad, roasted vegetables or stir fry. If you wish, you can add some cherry tomatoes, small broccoli florets and other mixed vegetables with the salmon before cooking to make an instant “one-pot meal”. This is great with a sweet potato post workout
