4. Core Crusher (10 minutes): Because abs are made in the gym (and revealed in the kitchen)!

Active Recovery Day

The Finish Line

Congratulations, Spring-Break Shedder! You have all the tools to transform your body and boost your confidence in just 8 weeks. Remember, this program is intense, but so are the results you’re after. Stay consistent, push yourself, and don’t forget to snap some “before” pics—you’ll want to see how far you’ve come!

Here are a few final tips to maximize your results:

1. Sleep at least 7-8 hours per night. Your body needs rest to transform!
2. Stay hydrated. It helps with everything from workout performance to fat loss.
3. Take progress photos weekly. Sometimes, the scale only tells part of the story!
4. Listen to your body. If you need an extra rest day, take it. This is a marathon, not a sprint (well, a very fast marathon).

So, are you ready to shed, sculpt, and shine? Your Spring Break body is waiting—let’s get it!
