Hi lovely! I understand that having a busy schedule can make the workouts a bit more difficult to stick to.

I recommend focusing on walking as much as possible every day (walking to the shop or from work, taking the stairs etc.) and doing resistance workouts 3 days per week.
You can add a running session whenever you have some extra time, but walking and circuits are a priority. :)

Hey Rachael!

I was just wondering, if I’m a mesomorph and I can’t really devote more than an hour to working out each day since I’m a student and I work, would it be enough for me to do 5 days of power walking from M-F and then Saturday HIIT and Sunday Rest?

I also work as a Server so I’m always walking aLOT around my restaurant everyday so I’m pretty lean, it’s just Mt belly and my thighs that have accumulated some fat.

Hey lovely! Calves are a bit tricky because genetics is a big factor.

It’s also important that you always make sure to power walk on a flat surface. Walking on a incline will out a lot of pressure on your legs which might result to unwanted bulkiness.

Lastly, it would be best to check if you are mixing up the sensation of soreness with the appearance (calves appearing swollen and larger than before). If they are swollen, it’s normal for them to be after an hour of vigorous power walking. You can test it out by making a pic right after the walking and then after a few hours of rest when the swelling is down and you will then see it’s not permanent but just your body’s reaction to the activity. :)

Hey lovely! Everyone gets results at different rates. It might just take you a little longer. Some girls achieve progress after only a couple of weeks, while others simply need a bit more time – even a couple of rounds and that’s perfectly normal. You also have to consider several factors. Sometimes weight loss isn’t just about calories in and calories out. Your body is a lot more complicated. Any issues with gut health, hormones, thyroid, cortisol or nutrient deficiencies can actually make a HUGE difference to your weight. Please have a read of this blog post as it explains these situations in more detail and you’ll be able to see if any of these sound like you.
