INTRODUCTION
Welcome to our 8 week fitness guide, with
focus on building curves!
Before you get started, we just want to give
you some short information. Every workout
contains a list of excercises and
recommended sets and repetitons. Next to
every excercise, there is a play symbol
that you can press, this will take you to a
video showing the current excercise. Along
with this guide comes an information page
with guidelines that you should read before
starting your 8 weeks. We've also made
nutrition guidelines and meal examples with
recipes for you. Once you've read through
the guidelines, you are ready to get started!
