3 planes de 12 semanas
Tu plan: qué hacer cada semana durante 12 semanas
Da igual que no hayas pisado un gimnasio, que lleves un tiempo sin saber si avanzas o que tengas años de experiencia: responde cinco preguntas y te llevamos a tu plan. Cada uno te dice qué hacer en el gimnasio, con la comida, con tus pasos y tu sueño, cómo medir si progresas y qué hacer si te estancas, con las herramientas y las guías de la web.
¿Cuál es tu plan? Cinco preguntas
Los tres planes
Cómo funcionan
Los tres planes tienen la misma forma: doce semanas, divididas en fases, y en cada fase cuatro apartados: en el gimnasio (tu rutina del generador, la técnica en la biblioteca de ejercicios, el RIR, cómo progresar y cuándo descargar), con la comida (tus calorías y tu proteína con sus calculadoras, el contador y las recetas; nunca un menú cerrado), pasos y sueño y cómo medir el progreso (el diario, el registro de peso, «Mi semana» y, si te ayudan, fotos y medidas).
Cada semana tiene un foco y una lista corta que puedes marcar. Las marcas se guardan solo en tu navegador: no hay cuentas ni se envía nada. Si un día no puedes con todo, haz el mínimo: lo parcial también suma.
No te prometemos kilos ni plazos: cuánto cambias depende de muchas cosas, y lo que sí podemos darte es un camino ordenado y con fuentes. Si te surge una duda por el camino, búscala en dudas.
Estos planes son orientativos y están pensados para adultos sanos. Si eres menor de edad, estás embarazada o en periodo de lactancia, tienes una enfermedad, tomas medicación, tienes una lesión o dolor, o tienes o has tenido un trastorno de la conducta alimentaria, consulta antes con un profesional sanitario: él te dirá qué partes te sirven. Si contar lo que comes, pesarte o medirte te angustia, sáltate esas partes.
