Posting your progress here each day/week is a great idea (the titles starting with "Week One Wednesday" or whatever will do) for motivation, it keeps you accountable and as you get into it you'll start to feel a little guilty if you don't complete them!

Nutrition-wise it's always a good idea to eat an hour or two BEFORE the work out (not heavy foods) but it also depends on your current diet, and dietary needs. I am not using the H.E.L.P guide as I have different dietary needs to the average person.

No regrets other than I have slacked the last two weeks (back on track now), I found that when I started the guide I went from being a lazy person to someone who loves to exercise (it happened very quickly!) so I've started a running program as well which I do instead of LISS or HIIT - so I have no advice there.

The progress happens quite quickly as well, you get to repeat workouts you did every few weeks (week 3 you repeat week 1) so you can see progress. I find that if you start to lose motivation you can just look forward to the repeat weeks because I see so much progress in my strength and speed.

All in all, if something isn't fun you shouldn't be doing it. Fun doesn't necessarily mean easy or you LOVE to do it, but you should get some happy gain from it.

Hey,
I'm also doing the BBG, I just started today! I want to add the circuit workouts to My Exercise in my diary. Do you add it in as Cardio, and then 'Circuit Training, General'? When I put that in, it says it only burns 184 calories, is that right? I would she's thought it burned more than that.

Also how did you add your LISS, or your arms and abs work outs, isn't that more strength/weigh training?

Any help welcome, I'm new to all of this!

Also, do you know if there's a group of here of BBG girls? Xx
