21 Day Fix Overview
The Beachbody 21 Day Fix TM is a seven day-a-week, three-week at-home workout program designed to get you looking as good as you can in 21 days, but it’s also about teaching you how to eat healthier and make exercise a part of your daily routine not just for the life of the program, but for life!
It’s a great program for the beginner and/or for someone who struggles with less-than-healthy eating habits.
The 21 Day Fix workout program by Autumn Calabrese was created to help you lose up to 15 lbs in 21 days through simple fitness and simple eating. Its Portion Control eating system is easy to follow and the special thing about this workout program is really how simple the eating plan is. If it doesn’t fit into the color coded container or isn’t listed in the eating plan, you can’t eat it!
Basically, your daily calorie intake will tell you how many of each color container you can eat per day. It’s better than calorie counting, because if it fits and it’s an approved food, you can eat it.
This is one of those workouts that is as hard as you make it. If you find the workouts too easy, simply increase the weight. After all, if you’re challenging your body, you’re not going to change your body, so don't hesitate to up the weights.
When your program arrives in the mail, you will open up the package and be surprised at how relatively compact everything is – at least I was. You’ll soon see that the Fix is not a starvation-based diet. Yes, the containers look small but you will be amazed at the amount of food that hits your plate. In fact, one of the most common concerns I hear are those wondering what to do when they can’t finish all their food for the day. This is what happens when you start eating healthy.
Here’s exactly what’s included:
THE WORKOUTS: The seven workouts are all around 30 minutes long, which really fit well into your schedule no matter how busy you are. No excuses! They are:

WHAT TO EXPECT
What Equipment is Required?
You will need some weights or a resistance band and a yoga mat to do the 21-Day Fix if you want the best results. If you’ve been away from exercise for a while, you could begin by using your own body weight as resistance, and later add resistance/weight as you get stronger.
-For beginners, I would recommend: 3, 5, and 8 pound dumbbells or a resistance band
-For intermediates/advanced: 5, 10, and 15 pound dumbbells or a resistance band
-A yoga mat will also be of use to you when you do the floor moves. It’s not a necessity, but it’s a great investment especially if you bruise easily.
