12 Week Bikini Bombshell Workout Plan Thank you for downloading this 12 week bikini bombshell workout plan. On the next few pages you will find 3 monthly calendars and your workout plans for the next 12 weeks. Over the next 12 weeks you will be exercising 5 days per week, each workout taking between 30-45 minutes to complete. You have the option to perform extra cardio if you feel you need it (but remember to take at least one rest day per week). These workouts can be performed at anytime during the day, whenever is the best time for you. Before starting your exercise plan there are some important things you need to know. Equipment You will need a set of dumbbells or bands as a minimum requirement for this workout plan. The workouts are made to suit your current fitness situation, whether you have a gym membership or just a small set up at home. If you don’t have access to certain equipment, I have listed alternate exercises which can be done with a pair of dumbbells or bands. Warm up & cool down It is very important that you warm up properly prior to exercising. I recommend performing cardio for at least 5 minutes prior to starting your workout. If the workout you are doing is a weights-based workout, then I highly recommend performing warm up sets for the muscles you will be targeting. For example, if your workout is a shoulder workout, you would perform 10 reps of each exercise you are about to do with light 5lb (or less) dumbbells to get your muscles ready and warmed up and to help prevent injury. Your cool down should last at least 5 minutes and include light cardio (such as walking) to bring your heart rate down slowly, and should also include static stretching of the worked muscles, remembering to hold each stretch for at least 30 seconds. Superset A superset is one exercise followed immediately by another without rest. Drop set After you have finished a set, you will immediately drop the weight and perform another set with less weight, but the same amount of reps (or more if you can). Keep lowering the weight and performing reps until you cannot perform any more. This is a highly effective way to help burn out and fatigue your muscle/s. The workouts Weeks 1-8: Perform all sets and reps for each exercise before moving on to the next Weeks 9-12: Perform each exercise one after the other without rest. Once you have finished the circuit, take a 60 second rest before repeating. Tips Always check with a doctor before starting any workout/diet program.. Remember to use proper form to avoid injury. Breathe properly and contract your core during each exercise. If you do not know how to do a particular exercise, I recommend checking out bodybuilding.com’s exercise library: http://www.bodybuilding.com/exercises/ Go as heavy as you can while maintaining proper form. If you are performing 12 reps, it should be c challenging by the 10th rep. If it isn’t you need to increase your weight. Ladies, do not fear lifting heavy! Lifting weights will not make you bulky, it will make you look lean. If you want the ‘toned’ look, then lifting weights is a must. You will not get ‘lean’ or ‘toned’ with cardio. Drink lots of water. Abs are made in the kitchen. There is no need to perform ab exercises every day. Don’t obsess over the scales - they don’t tell the whole story! Remember to also take take measurements and photos to track your progress If possible, find a workout buddy to motivate you. Keep track of how much weight you use for each exercise and aim to increase your weight each week. Enjoy!
