The answer is easy because it\u2019s so simple \u2014 no matter your goals, you need resistance training. Using weights will challenge your body, causing it to consume more energy and, in turn, burn more fat,\u201d says Megan.<\/p>\n<p>Muscle. Burns. Fat. This simple yet incredibly effective philosophy is what #mbf and #mbfa are all about.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pro tip:<\/strong> Once you finish #mbf and #mbfa, try Megan\u2019s #mbf Super Block! Learn more about Super Blocks here.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>So, What is #mbf and\u00a0<strong>#mbfa?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>#mbf Muscle Burns Fat and #mbfa Muscle Burns Fat Advanced are two three-week programs that incorporate strength training and cardio to help you build muscle and burn fat, with full-body workouts that are set to the beat of the music.<\/p>\n<p>With simple moves you\u2019ll learn quickly, you can let the tempo set your pace and drive your intensity for a total-body burn that will get you sweaty and spent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI created both programs to be done back-to-back,\u201d Megan explains. \u201cIdeally, you\u2019ll start on a Monday, and commit to finishing 21 workouts. Crush the first three weeks, and you can move on to #mbfa, where I dial-up the intensity and really push your results to the next level \u2014 plus there\u2019s a whole new challenge called Megan Minutes. Your goal is to do a set number of reps in 1 minute using your heavy weights. Don\u2019t quit on me!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nutrition is a key part of all six weeks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHere\u2019s the catch,\u201d Megan says. \u201cYou can\u2019t starve yourself. Building muscle and getting toned takes FUEL. I know it sounds counterintuitive, but you have to eat to lose weight. That includes healthy meals and your daily Shakeology and Beachbody Performance supplements.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Free #mbf and #mbfa Workouts<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><iframe title=\"Free 30-Minute Weight Training and Cardio Workout | Official #mbf Sample Workout\" width=\"1290\" height=\"726\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4x_Hj0vot_A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Free 35-Minute Full Body Workout | Official #mbfa Sample Workout\" width=\"1290\" height=\"726\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QC2ZoZ7zgTI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learn to love lifting weights and get a full-body burn in this sample workout with Megan Davies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then, when you\u2019re ready to take your progress to the next level, try this 35-minute sample workout from #mbfa. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>Want more?

Megan designed these workouts to get you lean and toned for your strongest body ever.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m including asymmetrical training along with symmetrical training for a reason. When you\u2019re lifting one weight, your body is forced to compensate for the imbalance, which engages your core,\u201d says Megan. \u201cBy challenging your body, you\u2019ll burn more calories and get the most out of each workout.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For the cardio workouts, the emphasis is on fat-burning, so get ready to work. You\u2019ll do AMRAPs (as many rounds as possible) that incorporate the BOD Rope.<\/p>\n<p>Sunday recovery workouts will stretch and revitalize your muscles so you\u2019re rested and ready for Monday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYour body will need it!\u201d says Megan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cProgress isn\u2019t always pretty, so get ready to be drenched in sweat and working hard to give me everything, every move. If at the end of three weeks you don\u2019t feel ready to step up to #mbfa, do #mbf again all the way through, and then take on #mbfa,\u201d she adds.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-128183\" src=\"https:\/\/bod-blog-assets.prod.cd.beachbodyondemand.com\/bod-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2030\/04\/mbf.Eric-A.600.jpg\" alt=\"#mbf before and after results\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<h2>How Does Nutrition Fit Into\u00a0#mbf and #mbfa?<\/h2>\n<p>Feeding your body well can help facilitate fat loss and improve training performance and recovery, so it\u2019s critical to dial-in your eating habits and fuel your body in a way that supports your goals.<\/p>\n<p>Daily Shakeology is a crucial component to help provide nutritional support for your weight loss program.<\/p>\n<p>Packed with the nutrients your body craves, each shake can help provide healthy energy\u2020, satisfy your sweet tooth, and make sure your body has the fuel it needs to thrive.*<\/p>\n<p>For workouts, you\u2019ll want the firepower of Beachbody Performance supplements \u2014 Energize before you work out, Hydrate during, and Recover after you finish.\u2021<\/p>\n<p>The Beachbody Guide to Nutrition will show you how to eat healthfully for every meal, including snacks and desserts, with delicious recipes and useful tips to stay on track throughout #mbf and #mbfa.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for a long-term solution to healthy eating and weight loss, there are two comprehensive premium nutrition programs that work seamlessly with #mbf and #mbfa, and can help you get even better, lasting results.<\/p>\n<p>2B Mindset is a positive approach to eating that lets you eat the food you love and STILL lose weight.<\/p>\n<p>Portion Fix uses color-coded portion-control containers to help you create delicious, perfectly sized meals, every time.<\/p>\n<p>\u2020Phosphorus contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism.<\/p>\n<p>\u2021 All products, flavors, and configurations may not be available in your market.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Who Is #mbf and #mbfa for? <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>#mbf Muscle Burns Fat is a beginner program that features simple, easy-to-follow moves and 25- to 35-minute workouts.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll have fun and work hard, with Megan and the cast giving you all the encouragement you need to get you across the finish line.<\/p>\n<p>#mbfa Muscle Burns Fat Advanced is an intermediate program with longer 25- to 40-minute workouts that build on the moves you learned in #mbf and includes Megan Minutes, which are 1-minute challenges using heavy weights and low-rep burnouts.<\/p>\n<h2>Who Is Megan Davies?<\/h2>\n<p>Wherever you are in your fitness journey, Megan will meet you there.
