I’ve changed it round quite a lot, to make the 5 days interesting and changing our routines helps weight loss and breaks plateaus.

New Calorie Allowance for weight loss if you have upped your exercise to 5 days a week
To lose weight while exercising more, aim for a calorie deficit of 500-1000 calories per day, but ensure your daily intake doesn’t fall below 1200 calories for women or 1500 for men.
Here’s a more detailed breakdown:
- Calorie Deficit:To lose weight, you need to burn more calories than you consume, creating a calorie deficit.
- General Recommendation:A common recommendation is to aim for a 500-calorie deficit per day, which can lead to a safe and sustainable weight loss of about 1 pound per week.
- Exercise’s Role:Increased exercise helps you burn more calories, contributing to the overall calorie deficit needed for weight loss.
- Minimum Calorie Intake:It’s crucial to ensure your daily calorie intake doesn’t fall below 1,200 calories for women or 1,500 calories for men, as this can be detrimental to your health.
- Individual Needs:Your individual calorie needs depend on factors like age, gender, activity level, and current weight.
- Weight Loss Calculators:Online calorie calculators can help determine your individual calorie needs and how many calories you need to consume to lose weight.
- Focus on Whole Foods:Prioritize a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean protein, and whole grains to support your weight loss goals.
- Hydration:Drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated and support your body’s functions.
- Consult a Professional:If you have specific health concerns or are unsure about how many calories to consume, consult with a registered dietitian or healthcare professional.

Once you get to target weight you then need to work out your maintenance calorie allowance as we aren’t meant to diet all the time.
Equally if you have shed a lot of weight, it is better to change to a healthy lifestyle and keep it off.
Conclusion
Once you get your routine up to 5 days a week, you can end your April Workout with The Victorian party.
(Having one day off a month from slimming; where you eat whatever you want, can help break slimming plateaus, is fun and prevents eating disorders).
I really enjoy this routine and don’t find it too hard, it is very do ~ able.
I think I could manage more in the future, but this gradual build up is working really well for me.
I find getting up an hour earlier allows you to get this new routine in your life as well as all your daily chores and so forth.
If you have just found this try just Zsa Zsa Gabor 3 times a week and a walk outside, that is where I started ~ it got me off the ground ~ Excellent routine.
You can turn the sound down once you learn the routine and listen to Boom radio or one of your own playlists or one of my playlists stored on you tube.
Then just build up a little more each month or just stick with this if this is enough for you.
We have to be our own excerise guides at the moment, so have to work out our own goals and targets.
If you want to do just 3 days a week do 3 strength and choose 3 cardio sessions.
If you walk with weights just do 2 Zsa Zsa routines.
You could just do yoga everyday if you prefer that.
Hope you enjoy April and this workout.
Which ever level you are at, don’t compare or compete, just enjoy yourself and feel the health benefits and the joy from reaching each new goal.
This all works!!!
(Congratulations if you have had results from WordPress Workouts!!!)
Enjoy
