Introducing BurnIt ~ UltraFit Program
I am thrilled to share my program with you and the world, absolutely free of charge. One aspect that is often overlooked is providing a detailed account of the steps taken to achieve certain results. My intention is to provide complete transparency—follow along if you can. To ensure you're ready, I recommend starting with a fit test.
This program is meticulously tailored, including the number of repetitions, weights, and sets. It holds a special place within Fitain as the very first, comprehensive 12-week program created on the platform.
As a personal trainer and product director, my goal was to make it as dynamic and versatile as possible to test the capabilities of our program builder. I knew that successfully transitioning this program from a spreadsheet to an app would signify a job well done.
I understand that this is not a "one size fits all" approach since the repetitions, sets, and weights may not be suitable for everyone. However, if you are able to train at my level and aspire to become leaner and more agile, this program will undoubtedly push your limits and help you achieve your goals.
Nutrition:
During the program, I followed an intermittent fasting schedule, practicing the one meal a day (OMAD) approach. I typically consumed my meal around 5/6 pm daily.
Additionally, I adhered to the "if it fits your macros'' strategy, ensuring my daily calorie intake ranged between 1800-2000 calories.
For context, I am 5'6" (167 cm) tall and weigh 68kg (151 pounds).
My diet primarily consisted of high-protein foods, leafy greens, low-carbohydrate options (low GI), and peanut butter.
The specific ratios varied on a daily basis, but I made sure not to fall below my Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) of 1588 calories or exceed 2000 calories. If requested, I can provide further details on this aspect.
Bye-bye Costly Solutions.
Equipment (stand outs):
I'm a fan of functional equipment...
The two primary pieces of equipment mentioned were extensively utilised in the program. This allows for versatile workouts that can be performed either at home or in the gym.
My approach to the workouts is designed to maintain consistency within a designated space. So even in a busy gym environment, you can simply find an available spot and continue your workout without interruption.
Other equipment:
- BOSU Ball
- Kettlebell
- Deck Step/Bench
Whether you're a intermediate or an advanced fitness enthusiast, these equipment choices add an extra level of challenge and variety to the workouts.
Throughout the program, you will engage in traditional muscle building exercises (with progressive overload), strength and conditioning workouts, CrossFit-style training, and much more.
Here are the progressions I achieved during the program:
Start: 14 kg x 10 Reps
End: 16 kg x 14 Reps
Start: 12 Reps
End: 15 Reps
Start: 12 kg x 12 Reps
End: 16 kg x 14 Reps
I must warn you that this program is challenging, and it progressively becomes more demanding from week 2 onwards. However, on the flip side, I have witnessed and personally experienced immediate results.
If you appreciate my training style but find the weights too heavy, I am more than happy to create a customised program for you, incorporating appropriate weights and sets. Let's connect and negotiate a price.
