So what you missed last week’s seminar, here it is…

Don’t let missing last week’s seminar stop you from coming tonight!   You can catch up by watching the April fifth seminar here: http://youtu.be/xIrFVgD9s44

Now that you’ve watched last week’s talk here are some things you should review and do to make tonight a little easier.

You should have an Inner Circle account by now.  That is an email address and password to log in to your online program here .  If you still don’t and you are planning on doing the challenge, go here and fill in name, email and phone to get your FREE account.

If you haven’t done your assessment yet, watch this short video to get an overview of what you’ll be doing.  You can use a tape measure if you have one or not.

If you have already completed your assessment, there is a great Guide for accessing your TriSystem Online Program.  Just click the hyperlink or find it on the TriSystem.com website under extras.

A great overview video in the guide is this video. It shows an older home home page.  The home page has been updated since then but the online program overview is the same.  Click on the link or just watch it below.

The 7 Weeks to a Swimsuit Summer Countdown, 6 More Weeks!

Are you already seeing changes?  I am! And the members that have been by the TriSystem Center have.  In just 1 week of making these simple food and exercise changes, it is pretty amazing how the body responds.  By now, you've completed your assessment and found your way around the software.   Log in to see what's in store for you today.  Your home screen says what's next.

The left side is your daily menus and the right side is your workouts.  You can easily print out menus, grocery lists and workouts for each day from the buttons at the bottom of the home screen.  Most members already know this but, did you see the other menu options on the right side?

The Metabolic profile tab tells you what you need to know if you don't have the planned meal to eat in front of you.  It explains the parameters that you need to follow to keep getting results.

Do you know how many calories you burn in a day?

Do you know the range of calories you need to eat per meal?

How about the distribution of proteins, carbs and fats?

How should your next meal look if it is at a restaurant or a friends house?

The Metabolic Profile Tab  answers these questions so you can stay on the plan ANYWHERE!

Here is an example of a Platinum Club Members's Metabolic Profile:

Analysis of your assessment answers indicates you burn 2065 calories/day. We have classified you as a 'regular' eater type. Your RMR has been calculated to be 1461 calories. Your SAF is calculated to be 415 calories.

To achieve your goals we have set your program to the following values:

  • 1/3 lean meat, low fat dairy and egg whites, fish and fowl
