You’ve made a big step: purchasing our most popular workout and nutrition program. Here’s how to activate your account, find your workouts, nutrition plan, and more!
Fat Loss Extreme is V Shred’s most popular program, and for good reason! We’ve seen this 90-day journey completely transform tens of thousands of bodies and lives, with new success stories happening pretty much every day.
It’s that powerful! So we want to make sure you have everything you need to dive into the program feeling ready and confident.
This guide is designed to make Day 1 as smooth and seamless as possible, so you can knock it out and move on to Day 2… and 3 and 4, all the way to the end!
It All Starts With The V Shred App
First things first: The easiest way to follow this program and enjoy all of its benefits is by downloading the V Shred App in either the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
Next, you’ll want to log in to the app using your email address as the username, and the temporary password you receive in your confirmation email.
The first time you log in, we’ll ask you a few simple questions about your height, weight, and activity level to customize your calorie and macronutrient calculator in the app. Don’t worry, it only takes a minute, and you can update your answers any time!
After you answer your questions, you can access your program and anything else you’ve purchased, like ebooks or recipe guides, or a subscription to V Shred University, in a section in the bottom left labeled “My Stuff.”
If you purchased a custom diet plan or other custom coaching along with your program, you’ll also find that in My Stuff.
Click on the program, you’ll go to the main program menu. This is where the fun really starts.
Step 1: Join Our Private Facebook Group
Step one is to join our FREE V Shred private Facebook Group. You’ll also get an email invitation, but you can do this right from the app! We have a group for women and a group for men.
V Shred trainers hang out in these groups answering questions daily, and on occasion, even leading live workouts. We’ve found the people who stay active in these groups almost always see the best results. It’s a great place to get a quick answer to your question, learn a game-changing recipe, or just know you’re part of a community all chasing the same goals.
Step 2: Dial In Your Nutrition to Match Your Workouts
Our workouts and nutrition plans go hand-in-hand. If you want serious results, you need both! You can build your nutrition approach this by clicking Create Your 90-Day Diet Plan.
Go through it step by step, and you’ll get a daily calorie range for your specific body, as well as easy recipes to help fuel your workouts, and set you up for success.
Now, at the bottom of the app you can see there’s also a macro calculator. This is great for AFTER you finish the 90-day plan, when you’re ready for carb cycling or to track your macros. But at first, we recommend you get confident at following the nutrition plan in your workout program.
Scroll down a bit further, and it’s time to choose your workouts!
Step 3: Choose Your Workouts
So our most popular programs all come in two variations. You can do them as follow-along video workouts, or as gym-based workouts. You can also switch back and forth, or–here’s a great option–do two gym workouts early in the week, and two at-home workouts later in the week.
Which one should you choose? If you want to do bodyweight workouts with Vince as your trainer, for about 20 minutes, 3-4 times a week, definitely go with follow-along. If you’re uncomfortable going to the gym or are traveling, this is also a great choice.
Whichever choice you make, you’ll find the workouts on the calendar of that workout style, along with some basic guidelines about warming up and rest times.
Just click on a day, and there’s your workout!
If you’re doing gym workouts, you’ll get the sets and reps. If you’re doing home workouts, there’s your video, complete with Vince’s smiling face.
Now, in both programs, you’ll find certain days the calendar tells you to either rest, or do an optional HIIT or “high intensity interval training” workout.
If you’re up for doing this workout — which wehighly recommend doing 1-2 times per week — you’ll find over 30 DIFFERENT OPTIONS to choose from in the HIIT guide on the program menu.
Just pick one, based on the equipment you have, and give it everything you’ve got! And yes, if you have no equipment at all, we have options there, too.
Now you’re hopefully feeling confident and ready to get to work! But if you’d prefer to let the experts do the heavy lifting, that’s understandable, too!
This is why our V Shred coaching team creates custom meal plans and even custom WORKOUTS for thousands of people every day. And they can create one for you, too — at any point in your program.
You can purchase this service on V Shred.com, on the V Shred app, or reach out at coaching@vshred.com for more information.
Now go start nailing your workout and meals. And don’t forget to tag us on social media with @vshred to share your after picture!
