WHAT IS THE BODY REVOLUTION? The NPL Body Revolution is guideline to help you make healthy lifestyle changes and incorporate exercise and supplementation into your everyday life. The NPL Body Revolution was not meant to stop when the 12 weeks are over. It s a sustainable change in lifestyle meant to be part of your daily routine to help you maintain a healthy balanced lifestyle. If you choose to work with an athlete or coach, this does come at a seperate cost. The athlete or coach is fully endorsed by NPL to provide you with the best results, but they render the service to you in their own capacity.

If you decide to work with one of our athletes or coaches, please note this is at your own discretion and does not form part of the NPL Body Revolution programme.
TIPS ON STARTING YOUR BODY REVOLUTION JOURNEY 01 PLAN 04 HYDRATION 02 It is essential that you stay prepared and stick to your eating plan. Plan your meals when you have free time, for example a Sunday evening. Use NPL plastic shakers to store your whey protein, softgels or capsules effectively. Make sure you pack your food the night before to avoid the temptation of stopping somewhere for an unhealthy snack. Pack your training apparel and sneakers in advance, this will make it easier to get ready for your workout without making excuses. UNDERSTAND YOUR WORKOUT PLAN Keeping hydrated is extremely important for your overall health and weightloss efforts. Consume at least 8-10 glasses of water a day. It is especially important to consume enough water while you are training. You can add ProLifeStyle AMINO BURN to your water during training or throughout the day for increased energy, mental focus and fat burning. 05 TRACK YOUR PROGRESS Starting a new training schedule can be daunting, especially if you are a beginner. We have created a workout plan specifically to suite your fitness levels and goals. If you do not understand an exercise, contact NPL at revolution@npl.za.com for more information and our team will be happy to help. Make time to research your workouts and the different exercises for each day to ensure you are doing them correctly. Adjust your plan over the 12 weeks as you become more fit and comfortable by increasing your weights or increasing your reps for each exercise. 03 CONSISTENCY IS KEY The plan may be difficult to adjust to at first, but remaining consistent is most important. Try to ensure you are as consistent as possible with your hydration, supplementation, eating and workouts. It is most important to create a healthy lifestyle with balance.
