Bikini Body Workout Routine
Are You Beach Ready?
It’s not too late to get the bikini body you want this summer. But you need to get serious, and you need to hit the gym with a totally new mindset.
First thing’s first. Before you even get to the gym, you need to get your diet in order. Start with the basics – cut out the fat and processed sugar, reduce your carbohydrate intake, and go with natural, whole food options whenever possible.
The most important thing to do is to boost your protein intake immediately. Eating more protein is the best way to simultaneously support a lean muscle mass and boost your metabolism, helping you burn a ton of calories and fat.
Invest in a high quality protein supplement like Optimum 100% Natural Whey or Gaspari Nutrition Myofusion, and keep on hand healthy, whole foods protein bars like these Vega Sport Chocolate Coconut Protein Bars when you’re on the go. Trust me, getting more protein in your diet has a huge impact on getting that tight, toned bikini body you’re looking for.

Once you get your eating habits under control, you need to hit the gym. For the fastest results possible, I’m recommending a combination of intense cardio and resistance training 5 days a week. For each set, aim for 12-15 reps.
Let’s get to the workout routine…
