3 Steps to Lean Legs Program Review by Brittany

A word from Rachael:
”If you’ve been following me on Instagram, or reading my blog, you know that you girls are my main inspiration & motivation. This is why I recently reached out to some of you to ask about your progress and feedback. These are their stories. Hope you find them as motivating and uplifting as I have.”

In this interview, I chatted with 24 y/o Brittany from Toronto, Canada. She enjoys travelling, exploring new places, wine, hanging out with friends and going for long, scenic walks (walking, yay!). She recently finished my 3 Steps to Lean Legs Program. Here is a summary of her experience & results after completing the Program. 

1. WHAT WAS YOUR FITNESS ROUTINE BEFORE YOU STARTED 3 STEPS TO LEAN LEGS PROGRAM? 

BRITTANY: I have been pretty active my entire life. I grew up playing soccer and hockey. In university, I discovered my love for working out in the gym. From there I went through several fitness phases, from being a cardio bunny to lifting very heavy weights.

My goal back then was to be thick and curvy (which is still very beautiful). This was of course before I started my career in TV, where I quickly learned the camera really does add a few pounds. In the first year or so of my career, I stopped working out regularly as I was still getting accustomed to the stresses that come with working full-time.

After that year, I started to work out again, but I was doing random things at the gym: running some days, doing plyos or HIIT on other days, absolutely NO walking, no yoga, maybe the stair master, maybe some squats with moderate weights, you get the point.

I had no idea what to do as I hadn’t been to the gym consistently in what felt like ages. I changed my goals to wanting to be leaner because not only did I not have the time to be in the gym for hours upon hours with my new lifestyle, but my previous routine also wasn’t aligning with my vision for how I wanted to look for my job.

2. WHAT CONVINCED YOU TO TRY OUT MY PROGRAM?

BRITTANY: I think I was on Google or YouTube searching how to get leaner legs and I stumbled across your website!

I checked out your Instagram and I was convinced to try it out after seeing some amazing transformations on your page. These women looked lean but still toned and healthy, which is how I wanted to look!

I also loved how affordable it was compared to some other programs out there. I figured I might as well give it a try, and I’m so glad I did!

3. HAVE YOU EVER TRIED EXERCISING ACCORDING TO YOUR BODY TYPE BEFORE?

BRITTANY: I had no idea which body type I was. I wasn’t even familiar with what a mesomorph or endomorph was at the time!

I have never exercised according to my body type. It appears I had only experienced ‘one program fits all’ plans, which clearly were not so effective!

4. WHAT WAS YOUR ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE PART OF OUR PROGRAM AND WHY?

BRITTANY: I loved how thorough your program was. It provided so much insight and valuable information to the point where I was never confused about what or how to do something.

I also loved how convenient and accessible the program was. I just kept the tab open on my phone when I would go to the gym and I would just scroll through the plan to what day I was on and begin my workout!

If I wasn’t sure how to do a move, I loved how there was a video I could click on to clarify. I also appreciated how I could do the workouts at home if I wanted to.

The best part was my mom noticing my results and her starting to do the workouts with me! I just loved the overall structure and detail that went into the plan. The fact that you threw in a meal plan as well is something I think many people will find very helpful.

5. WHAT WAS THE MOST CHALLENGING PART OF THE PROGRAM? 

BRITTANY: The walking! I am so glad you introduced walking to me because when I started the program in the summer, I would go for these beautiful walks outside and it didn’t even feel like I was working out.

The only thing I struggled with was getting enough of walking each day. Most days I ended up walking 25-30 minutes during my workouts because I did not have time (I had a far commute to work and had to do my workouts at 4:30 in the morning).

However, I would still end up hitting my step target for the day because I have quite an active job. I could start to see new muscles appearing in my legs and how they were starting to look much slimmer after just a couple of weeks and this really kept me going because my legs had never looked that way before!

6. WHEN DID YOU FIRST START SEEING RESULTS? 

BRITTANY: I started seeing results after week 2. I could not believe it!

My clothes were starting to fit me much nicer and people started to notice I looked leaner overall. I weighed myself occasionally just out of curiosity, but I took a lot of photos to make sure I wasn’t going crazy and I was actually making great progress!

I felt amazing after finishing the program – so much stronger and lighter. I felt more confident with my appearance and how I was starting to look in photos.

Most of all, I loved how I was looking for my job! Because I had lost a little bit of weight in my face from the program, my features were starting to pop out more.

I felt really good, which is why I am still doing the program almost a year after I first started it! It’s a program that I feel anyone can stick to for a long period of time because it’s very simple yet challenging.

7. WOULD YOU RECOMMEND 3 STEPS TO LEAN LEGS PROGRAM TO YOUR FRIENDS? 

BRITTANY: I would definitely recommend it to friends! Some of my friends had even asked me what I had been doing. Of course I told them about your program ;)

Again, its affordability, simplicity, effectiveness, and accessibility were keys to this program standing out compared to others. The results from myself and all of the other women who done the program speak for themselves!

Thank you so much for your invaluable knowledge and everything you’ve put into the program. You’ve inspired so many girls including myself! I hope everyone can have the chance to benefit from your plan like I did.

I just want to let everyone know they can do this no matter what fitness level they are! It’s a really great program for people with busy lifestyles that want to stay fit.

It’s also for those who don’t want to go to the gym all of the time or want to work out in an environment comfortable for them.

Although you have to do a lot of walking, don’t strive for perfection, strive for progress. Some walking is better than nothing – do what you can and what you are most comfortable with!

I still got great results without following the program to the exact tee, but obviously, you will get out what you put in.
