Welcome
BIKINI BODY BABE
I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT MY NEWEST BBR CHALLENGE. I HAVE DESIGNED THIS
PROGRAM TO HELP YOU SCULPT THE ULTIMATE BIKINI BODY!
Your sessions for the next 6 weeks will be intense and effective, using minimal
equipment, yet allowing you to achieve maximum results.
Bodies by Rachel prides itself on creating and delivering the very best programs
when it comes to helping women all over the world achieve their ultimate bikini
bodies. This program specifically focuses on enhancing or creating the attributes
that makes a woman look feminine; we aim to tighten up your waist and focus
on building the booty. We focus the training throughout this program on these
two things specifically, and coupled with perfect nutrition, we can help you sculpt
an hourglass shape and give you curves in all the right places. This program is
designed to help you obtain a gorgeous waist to booty ratio #WTB. I want you to
have your dream figure and be the best version of you.
To achieve the best possible results in this 6-week challenge, you need to be
pushing yourself 100% in every session and be adhering to your meal plan as it has
been prescribed for you. Consistency is key; if you can conquer your mind and hold
your self-accountable to being regimented with your diet and training for this very
short time span, you will achieve more than you thought possible.

ON THE DAYS WHERE THERE ARE TWO WORKOUTS,
both in the morning and afternoon and you only have
time for one session – do them both together.
IF WE AREN’T GENETICALLY BORN WITH THE HOUR GLASS
SHAPE, THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT THERE ARE THINGS THAT
WE CAN DO TO HELP US “CREATE” THOSE BEAUTIFULLY
FEMININE CURVES THAT WE ALL SEEK.
In order to create the illusion of, or build an hour glass
shape, we want to train our shoulders and back to give
them a beautifully strong structure and shape, which
will in turn cause a tapering effect down to our waists
(think of an upside-down triangle).
From here we need to ensure our waist and core is nice and
tight so that it appears “small”. For this to happen, we need
to strengthen our core with lower back, oblique and
abdominal exercises and also focus on burning fat with HIIT
training. Diet is absolutely the biggest factor when it comes to a
lean core and tight waist, so if this is your goal, ensure your diet
is on point and you are adhering to your meal plan.
The Bikini Body Challenge was created to give you the perfect
waist to booty (#WTB) ratio. In order to achieve the beautifully
feminine curves and waist to booty ratio that you are dreaming
of, the following is necessary:
Proper nutrition – this will fuel your sessions, aid your recovery
and ensure you stay lean. Abs are made in the kitchen, not in
the gym.
Core training and stability work – this will keep our core tight
and ensure our posture is correct. This helps with the “waist”
part of the equation. and of course, HIIT training - HIIT torches
body fat and allows us to hold our beautiful muscles.
CARDIO
OPTIONS
FA S T E D C A R D I O
Research shows that exercising in a fasted state increases both lipolysis and
fat oxidation rates. Lipolysis is the breaking down of fat cells for energy. Fat
oxidation is the burning of this energy by cells. Research also shows that
the blood flow in the abdominal region is increased when you’re in a fasted
state, which is helpful because one of the key problems with the “stubborn
fat” is reduced blood flow.
Your rest day and type of rest will depend on how advanced you
are and your intensity of training. If you’re just now starting out in
the fitness world, your rest day should probably be a real rest day
in which case you do not do any activity at all. A more experienced
person may choose an “active rest day”. This is where you won’t lift
any weight or do anything intense such as HIIT, but you may do an
activity like yoga or do some LISS cardio.
Throughout this program you will see I have made Sunday your
rest day. However, if something comes up and you need to
rearrange your rest day, you can do so.

Post workout is where stretching can become very beneficial. It is important that you stretch
to reduce tension so that your muscles can return to a relaxed state. Here are a few common
stretches you may wish to do post workout.
