INTRODUCTION

Hello, and welcome to all subscribers, new and existing!

Are you ready for a challenge? Are you ready to break old habits and create
new ones? Commit to us for the next 40 days, we guarantee your life will
improve in all aspects...

This document contains everything you need to know regarding the challenge
and provides you with the tools to get the best results possible.

If you have any questions or require any further support please email:

shredfastwell-being@outlook.com
GUIDANCE

Although the scales are a good way to track progress, we would emphasise
that you take progress pictures as sometimes the scale may not show any
change which could cause you to lose motivation.

HOW TO TAKE PROGRESS PICTURES:

1) FACE FORWARD
2) TURN TO ONE SIDE
3) TURN TO BACK

ENSURE YOU ARE IN THE SAME LIGHTING, POSITIONING AND SIMILAR


CLOTHING FOR EACH PICTURE

We recommend taking progress pictures once per month, so for this


challenge, take your first picture on Wednesday 2nd March, again on the 30th
March and again on the final day of our challenge.
SHREDFAST TIPS

ACCOUNTABILITY
You are a direct reflection of the expectations of your peer group. We recommend an accountability partner to keep
each other on track throughout our 40 Day Challenge. Studies show a huge increase in completion of tasks when being held
accountable by a family member, friend or professional coach. The more people holding you accountable, the better.

Forming Habits
It takes 21 days to create a new habit. By following this 6 week challenge challenge you are cementing good habits and
behaviour into your lifestyle that will elevate your entire life.

Alcohol & Hydration


Enjoy alcohol responsibly. Do not be tempted to starve the body of what it needs for the sake of a quick fix. Hydrate
regularly and limit alcohol intake for the next 40 days.

Discipline
We are all human and it is only natural to slip up at times. Just be sure to get straight back on the wagon as soon as possible.
Resume your usual routine and do not punish yourself with harsh dieting or excessive training.
DAILY RITUALS

1) AFFIRMATIONS - Follow the affirmation guidance in this document. Affirmations are


powerful, positive statements that can help you to challenge and overcome self-
sabotaging and negative thoughts. When you repeat them often, you start to make
positive changes.

2) DAILY WORKOUT - Complete the workout of the day each day, posted in the workout
section of the programme.

3) 3 MINUTE MEDITATION - We would recommend performing this meditation after


you have said your affirmations. We are recommending just 3 minutes to introduce this
new habit to you. Feel free to meditate for longer if you wish.

4) NO REFINED SUGAR, PROCESSED FOODS OR ALCOHOL - all of these are proven to


cloud judgement and increase brain fog. Try your best to eliminate all three for the next
40 days. You will notice improved mental clarity and improved productivity.
STEP CHALLENGE

Aim for 10,000 steps each day and 12,000 every Sunday.
We encourage these steps to be completed in nature and also recommend a couple of
minutes earthing. Earthing (also known as grounding) is having bodily contact with the
earth's natural electric charge. In layman's terms, this is walking barefoot across a natural
ground such as grass or sand. It has been scientifically proven to reduce inflammation, pain
and stress and can improve blood flow, energy levels and sleep quality.

By the end of the challenge you will have walked 432,000 steps!!
Print off the page below and mark each day off after you have hit your steps.

Be sure to tag us in your step count each day, especially on Sundays! Remember, we are all
completing the challenge together!

Print the page below to keep track of your steps throughout the challenge!

AFFIRMATIONS

Say each affirmation out loud once in the morning and immediately follow with a
minute or so of contemplation and calm breathing. This exercise is simple, yet
very effective.

We have outlined some powerful affirmation examples below. If you would like to
add your own affirmation, print the page below and write your personalised
affirmation to solidify it.

Print the "My Affirmation" page below to write down your personal affirmation to
give it more meaning.
AFFIRMATION EXAMPLES

1) I am grateful for the many blessings in my life.

2) Today I look for and appreciate the good.

3) I welcome joy into my life.

4) I am in tune with the abundant nature of the universe.

5) Money comes to me in expected and unexpected ways.

6) My body knows what is best for my health and well-being.

7) I attract the perfect people at the right time.

8) I deserve happiness and success.

9) Something wonderful is always on the verge of happening.

10) I am worthy. I am enough.

NUTRITION PROTOCOL

The carb cycling nutrition plan is a 6 day cycle consisting of:

2 day Low Carb

1 day High Carb

2 day Low Carb

1 day High Carb

REPEAT

We recommend complying to an eating window of 10:00am - 6:00pm

I have provided you with an example meal plan for your training days and your rest days, as
well as a list of recommended foods for you to make any substitutes. The lists are colour
coded so you know where to make your swaps from.
SUPPLEMENTS

Supplementation is a great way of making sure that your body is getting enough of
the essential nutrients, especially when dieting and training hard.

By taking supplements you can enhance your recovery from your training sessions
as well as multiple other benefits such as: improved sleep quality, improved focus,
improved mood and enhanced immunity.

Below are the supplements that Luke currently takes each day and are what he
would recommend. They are not essential to your progress and it is important to
know that supplementation cannot make up for a balanced diet, they are used to
enhance not replace.
SUPPLEMENTS
NUTRITIONAL YEAST
Nutritional yeast is a great source of vitamins and minerals. It also contains all nine
essential amino acids, making it a complete protein like those found in animal products.

BIO-MAGNESIUM
Bio-Magnesium supports the normal functioning of the nervous system and contributes to
normal muscle function and protein synthesis, meaning it is beneficial in recovery.

VITAMIN C
Vitamin C is necessary for the growth, repair and development of all body
tissues. It also supports the optimal functioning of the immune system
preventing illness.

FISH OIL
Fish oils contribute to normal brain and eye development and improve cognitive function.

VITAMIN D

Vitamin D is involved in calcium absorption, immune function and provides protection


for the bones, muscles and heart.

BRAIN PHOOD

Supports normal cognitive and immune function, reduces stress and anxiety,
improves focus and mood..
NUTRITION PLAN

These nutrition plans are based on the average male and female.

They will vary depending on body type, age and metabolic rate. Adapt it to your personal
requirements by increasing or decreasing portion sizes or by working out your macros using
MyFitnessPal.

If you wish to track calories, do so by using this exact plan and by altering your portion sizes until
you hit your recommended macros.
