EXERCISE:
What do the Bulgarian split squat and the Fitolution have in common? The Bulgarian split squat is an exercise. Exercise, health, mindset and nutrition are all part of the Fitolution.
TARGETED BODY PARTS:
Hips and Butt
Instructions –
Start with the feet hip-width apart, with the right foot forward and the left foot placed back behind the body on a bench or box that is about knee-height. Hold a dumbbell in both hands in a vertical position in front of the chest and keep the elbows close to the rib cage during the exercise. Keep the back straight while lowering the left knee towards the floor. Before the left knee hits the floor, press the right foot into the ground, pull back on the right knee, and push the top of the left foot into the box to return to standing.
As promised, here’s the second Fitolution make-up day.
EXERCISE:
Saturdays are cardio days so stick to your cardio routine. Make sure it’s at least 30 minutes. How about a trail run?
BONUS:
Push-up with single-leg raise
Targeted body parts – Arms, Butt/Hips, Chest, Full Body/Integrated, Shoulders
How are you getting on with The Fitolution? Take a couple minutes today and ask yourself:
You thought I forgot about you and the 2 make-up days I promised. Nah, just giving you time to reflect cause we’re still talking about The Fitolution. What did you get out of it? What will you keep? What will you add?
The good part is, it’s all up to you.
EXERCISE:
Fridays are strength days so stick to your strength routine. Make sure it’s at least 30 minutes of strength training.
BONUS:
INVERTED FLYERS
Cardio, cardio, cardio . . . If I had a nickel for every time a client mentioned cardio and weight loss in the same sentence . . . I’d be a rich woman.
Yes, cardio is important but nutrition is key when it comes to health and weight loss.
Here we go on another challenge week and the 8th day of the Fitolution.

Monday strength days so stick to your strength routine. Make sure it’s at least 30 minutes of strength training.
