If you ask your friends how much of fat is required to have a toned figure and healthy body, it will lead to a debate.

The 1^st Week:

You will take 4 meals a day. The first meal will have Egg Frittata, the second one cooked tilapia and a half cup of oats. The third meal should comprise of cooked beef, half cup cooked brown rice and 1 cup of green vegetables. The 4^th and pre-workout meal will comprise of cream of rice, 50g whey isolate. Make it with almond butter and water. During the workout you can intake 40g casein hydrolysate, 90g carbs. Post workout, the 5^th meal should include 2 Almond-apple-yam pancakes. The last meal will have cooked lean white fish and veggies with Protein Berry Crisp serving.

On off days, you will have 6 meals that should include whole eggs, virgin coconut oil, cooked chicken, Ezekiel toast, sweet potato, organic butter, etc. In this week, you should workout for 4 days. This should include weight training and cardio. Cardio session should include 45 minutes of walking.

The 2^nd Week:

The meal for working days in the 2^nd week will exactly be like the first week. However, refrain from consuming oats. Same is true about meals for off days in this week.

Through this week too, you should do weight training for 4 days. For cardio, raise your walking duration to 50 minutes.

The 3^rd Week:

In the third week, working day meals remain the same as the 2^nd week. You will follow the same strategy for off day meals.

During this week, you will exercise for 5 days and keep one day to work on your legs alone. For cardio, do 50 minutes of walking at brisk speeds.

The 4^th Week:

The working and off day meals remain the same in the 4^th week. Even the exercise and cardio routines follow the same pattern of the earlier week. Have a shake made with 10g of BCAAs and eat it during the cardio session.

The 5^th Week:

The meals continue to be the same in the 5^th week, both for non-working days and working days. However, exercise time spans to six days now. The additional day is meant for weight training for your back. The cardio routine remains same along with consuming the shake.

The 6^th Week:

While meals continue as usual in the 6^th week, exercise limit reaches a high. Now, you will need to work out every day of the week, for weight training sessions. This will cover all parts of your body, literally. You will need to do cardio 4 days a week and it will include 50 minutes of walking. The shake consumption will go on as well.

The 7^th Week:

Meals would follow the exact pattern of the earlier week and the same can be said about the weight training sessions. The 50-minute cardio sessions should come down to 3 days a week now.
