Workout Plan

I am no personal trainer, and still, have work to do on my own, but I’ve found a routine that works for me and wanted to share it with all of you! I don’t always follow exactly, switching up a day or two here and there or adding in a new workout that I see on IG, but the below is the basis for my “work-out” week.

The two most important things remain the same in this weight loss journey, consistency and a clean diet. And along with consistency, comes the idea of continually pushing yourself and getting better with time, which will cause you to increase reps/weight depending on your goals!
