šāāļø Should I Take an Extra Product If I Am Exercising?
Exercise can be a fantastic way to lift your mood, boost your motivation and support your transformation. However, when following a Very Low Calorie Diet (VLCD), it is important to approach exercise carefully, especially in the early stages of the plan.
š” Exercise Guidelines for Your New You Journey
šļø Weeks 1 and 2
We recommend avoiding continuous or strenuous exercise during the first two weeks of your plan. This gives your body time to adjust to a lower calorie intake and helps prevent tiredness or your body entering conservation mode.
ā Instead, focus on light movement such as walking, gentle stretching or relaxed yoga sessions.
šŖ Exercise Days: What to Do
š„¤ Add an Extra Product
On the days you choose to exercise, we advise adding one extra New You product to your day. This helps fuel your activity and ensures your body receives the nutrition it needs to perform and recover.
Our protein-rich shakes are a great option for exercise days, giving your body the support it needs without disrupting your progress.
š« Support Recovery with a Snack
After your workout, you can also enjoy a high protein snack, such as our protein wafers. These can help to:
- Support muscle repair
- Maintain strength and tone
- Keep you feeling satisfied
