Can I do this program if I travel a lot? Or go on a lot of business trips?

We have many solutions that you can consider. Your success matters to us. We do what we can to ensure our clients see the value in what we offer and how it serves them.

When do I have to Start my plan?
Once you receive your program, you determine the best start date for you. Your program should be worked for the duration with minimum interruption.
Is there a better time to start a program?
The most ideal time to start your program is on a Monday for most. If you are waiting for no obstacles or events in your life to start this plan, we suggest you rethink that. It’s important that you know there will always be obstacles, some set backs and the best way to approach this is to come up with sensible solutions. However, We don’t suggest starting this when you are leaving on vacation. You want to start your first 2 weeks when you feel you can give your program the time and attention it needs. If you are always busy than just start the program and begin to learn how to manage your meals and workouts into your schedule because it will never be an ideal time. You have to work with your lifestyle the best that you can.
How Long Does it Take Until I receive my Plan?
Once we get all your info back including before pictures we will begin making your plan. It typically takes us 3-5 days to make a plan unless we are traveling then it takes a max of 7-8 days. Your program will be sent you sooner, if we can get it to you sooner. If you purchase your program on a Wednesday you will receive it on a Friday to begin on Monday. If you sent it after a Wednesday, it is likely you will receive your program Monday to begin on a Wednesday. The couple of days in between will give you a chance to get your food and order your supplements. You have time to get organized! You can change your start date however you wish, but keep in mind your body compositions determine which program is right for you. If there is a fluctuation to your weight or body fat this can skew the program and the formulas should reflect where you are at upon purchase for accurate tracking and results.
What does the Meal plan Look Like?
Your meal program will be a timed approach and have a variety of carbs, proteins and fats. The zig-zagged dieting approach (shifting of macros in the way of fats, protein and carbs) we use will include some cheat meals and variances to the macros for best results. You will eat every 2.5-3 hours and ensure your metabolism stays hot. The closer you come to this menu the better results you are likely to get. You will get a food exchange sheet to use. This will be handy when you travel, eat out or you just aren’t in the mood for something on your meal program. It keeps your program somewhat flexible.
