Preparing for Hammer & Chisel

Okay - let me just get this out of my system... I AM SOO EXCITED... ahh.. okay... And incase you aren't sure what I am talking about - check out our newest 60 day program - The Master's Hammer and Chisel

So in order to be successful in anything you need a plan right? You wouldn't Christmas shop without a list and coupons, or just get in the car and go on vacation - you need to pack, shop, plan and prepare.... And fitness challenges aren't any different! Whether this is your first challenge or your 12th, preparation is the key to success!

In these challenges, I change your mindset and how you think about food, workouts, water, nutrition.. My goal is a whole body transformation for both of us!

The second I was able to, I did my homework on Hammer and Chisel - what can I eat, how much can I eat, what equipment do I need and what kinda time is required! This is the required equipment for this challenge:

Do you have what you need? Okay, great... Now the best/worst part - those before pics! I know, they aren't fun - but it is rewarding to see how your body changes over the course of the next 60 days... Mine are done, your turn!


Figuring out water intake is important, and actually a lot of people find this one of the harder parts of the challenge - I know I do!!! How much water are we talking? Well, take your weight in pounds, and divide it in half - and that is how many ounces a day you should be consuming! I plan in my water intake, so I am not chugging water before bed - been there, done that - million night time bathroom breaks!



Alright, now we need a plan! My #1 tip is to have a plan for the week! When will you workout, what will you eat? First thing was first, I had to calculate what calorie bracket I fell into, then see how many portions of each color I could eat in one day. Once that is complete, I checked out the approved food lists - so I could figure out what recipes of mine are Hammer and Chisel Approved. From there, I completed my meal plan! When I write out my meal plan, I keep my grocery list nearby so I can add what I need right to it! You will notice that I plan one cheat meal a week - I practice zig-zag diet to keep my metabolism guessing! I also put my workout and the length of time of the workout right there on the meal plan!

 

And my grocery list...

 

 

Meal planning is set to take place Monday! I meal plan because my evenings are busy and I don't want any excuse to grab fast food, or have a bowl of cereal for dinner! My meal plans are kinda boring but that is what has worked for me! I keep track of how I feel, what was filling, what recipes worked for my family to help me perfect my meal planning process.

Hammer and Chisel Test Group

AHHH - I can hardly contain my excitement.. I haven't been this excited about a workout program since Insanity Max:30 last December! And even though we are in the middle of the holidays, I am not going to use that as an excuse - this is my time, my body, my fitness - and I plan on rocking it! For the very first time, trainers Sagi Kalev (Creator of Body Beast) and Autumn Calabrese (best known for the 21 Day Fix and 21 Day Fix Extreme) have teamed up to bring you their proven techniques to craft a “masterpiece physique” with The Master’s Hammer and Chisel. I can't help but think of Beauty and the Beast when I think of them together!

What is The Master's Hammer and Chisel?

• An innovative resistance-training system that includes all three phases of muscle sculpting—known as SSP Training— to rapidly build, chisel, and refine a masterpiece physique in just 60 days.
• Sculpt your ultimate physique with 12 brand-new workouts that incorporate the three phases of SSP Training— Stabilization, Strength, and Power—that are essential to building a powerful, perfectly defined body.
• A comprehensive program from seasoned trainers and award-winning fitness competitors, Sagi Kalev and Autumn Calabrese.
• Includes options to adapt certain exercises if you have limited access to equipment.
• Includes a modifier who demonstrates some moves at a lower intensity.
• Fuel your body for demanding workouts and achieve your best results with a straightforward portion-control nutrition plan that you can customize to meet your goals—whether you want to lean out, sculpt and maintain what you’ve got, or build muscle.

Is this for me?

• Men and women looking for a comprehensive resistance-training or muscle-sculpting program. 
•  Those who enjoy Body Beast, 21 Day Fix, or 21 Day Fix EXTREME. 
• Those who like the motivating styles and proven training methods of trainers Sagi Kalev and Autumn Calabrese.
• Those who crave a simple, flexible nutrition plan to help them reach their unique goals.

What makes this program effective?

• The Master’s Hammer and Chisel is built on the three phases of SSP Training—Stabilization, Strength, and Power. Other programs only focus on one or two phases, which might give you decent results. But The Master’s Hammer and Chisel program incorporates all three methods to help you relentlessly chip away fat and carve every muscle for a strong, visually stunning body in 60 days.
• The program combines the expertise and proven training techniques of two seasoned trainers who’ve spent decades acquiring the tools, skills, and experience needed to transform your body into a masterpiece—fast.
• Co-creator Sagi Kalev was crowned Mr. Israel–twice–and is a Master Professional Personal Trainer, IFBB Pro, member of the IFBB Propta Hall of Fame, Certified Nutrition Specialist, and Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist.
• Co-creator Autumn Calabrese is a celebrity trainer, best-selling author, and working mom who has held certifications from the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and the American Fitness Professionals  & Associates (AFPA), and has competed at the national level in various bikini competitions.

What makes Hammer and Chisel Different from Body Beast and the Fix?

•  Sagi Kalev and Autumn Calabrese combined their own effective body-sculpting techniques into one comprehensive resistance-training program.
• Body Beast is a bodybuilding program that focuses on muscular hypertrophy. The Master’s Hammer and Chisel includes aspects of bodybuilding, but also focuses on improving endurance, power, agility, strength, balance, and range of motion to sculpt a powerful, defined physique.
• 21 Day Fix EXTREME is a shorter, goal-specific program, whereas The Master’s Hammer and Chisel is a full 60-day program with slightly longer workouts. 21 Day Fix EXTREME focuses on getting you shredded in the shortest time possible, while The Master’s Hammer and Chisel also helps you improve other aspects of your fitness, such as muscular endurance, power, strength, and agility. It’s a whole new approach to helping you achieve a strong and chiseled body.

What do I need?

• A few dumbbells of various weights appropriate to your strength and fitness level.
• A bench or stability ball.
• A chin-up bar or a resistance band and a door attachment.

What makes Hammer and Chisel Unique?

• A strong, chiseled, perfectly defined body.
• Improved strength, power, cardiovascular endurance, balance, and agility.
• Incredible definition that you might not have been able to achieve before.
• The flexibility to lean out, sculpt and maintain what you have, or build muscle, depending on your unique goals.

What’s included?

• 12 workouts on 6 DVDs that rapidly build, chisel, and refine your body using SSP Training.
• A set of 7 portion-control containers and a Shakeology shaker cup to help you master the art of nutrition— and sculpt your ultimate physique.
• The Master’s Hammer and Chisel Program and Nutrition Guide, with your straightforward eating plan, easy-to make recipes, and Sagi and Autumn’s expert tips for getting the most out of your workouts.
• Quick-Start Guide lays out your 3-step blueprint for building the body you’ve always wanted.
• 60-Day Calendar that shows you which workout to do each day for efficient and effective training.
  
• PLUS 2 FREE BONUS WORKOUTS

When Sagi and Autumn want tough, fat-chiseling cardio, The Master’s Cardio DVD includes their go-to moves.  Short, but intense, this workout boosts aerobic capacity, power, and muscular endurance—without impacting your  lean-muscle gains.
