PURELY SMOOTHIESHOPPING GUIDE.

As you can tell—we're pretty serious about our smoothies. We play around with different flavor combinations, superfoods, add-ins and toppings to make yummy

smoothie bowls to fit our mood, cravings and the season! Here are the basics to get you started...

FRUITS + VEGGIES

Next up: a liquid or base. We usually go for a non-dairy milk, yogurt or coconut water. Another favorite base of ours are the Pitaya Plus Smoothie Packs or even cold brew coffee. If you have no liquids on hand, just use water!

BANANA MANGO STRAWBERRIES PINEAPPLEBLUEBERRIES BLACKBERRIES

RASPBERRIES KIWIBEETSAVOCADO SPINACH KALE

LIQUIDS + BASES

Start with a combination of fruits. You can mix these up and get creative. We like to use a banana or a half an avocado to create an extra creamy texture. We always add greens to top off the smoothie! Our go-to's are frozen kale or spinach—they make great nutrient-rich fillers, that when mixed with other ingredients, you can't even taste!

PURELY CHATTING

with Kayla Itsines

How did you first get started?

Since I started personal training, my focus has always been on training women. I had images of my clients’ progress on my phone, and it’d take forever to scroll back through my pictures to find them to show new clients. It was my little cousin who suggested to keep them all on an Instagram account. As I was unable to physically train women on the other side of the world, my partner, Tobi suggested that I create a guide, so that I could help women from all over the world. This is when we developed the Bikini Body Training Guide (BBG) for women to download anywhere, anytime. I’ve now recently released my Sweat with Kayla app, which allows you to access my nutrition and training advice all at the touch of a finger! It’s like a personal trainer in your pocket!

What is unique about BBG compared to other workout programs?

I personally believe what sets the BBG workouts apart from others is that it is focused on the way women feel and their strength and confidence not on how they look. I believe that there is so much

more to working out than just losing weight and looking good, it’s about FEELING good. It’s such a great feeling to be gaining confidence and being part of such an incredible community of women who are all developing healthy habits that they can maintain for life!

BBG has grown like crazy in just two years, what do you think was the biggest catapult in causing it to go viral?

It’s so exciting to see how far the BBG Community has grown over these last few years, and there’s no slowing down! I think one of the biggest moments for me was stepping out on stage at our first world tour in 2015 it was bigger than I ever imagined! Social media has also been such a great tool for me to connect with the community and also use it as a platform to share the incredible life changing transformations with everyone! In saying that, I don’t believe the amount of followers I have makes me “famous”. I’m just a normal girl that has been blessed with the most incredible opportunity to help women work towards being better, fitter and stronger versions of themselves every day. I don’t believe it’s the number of followers you have, but what you can do to help and make a positive impact on the lives of those followers that is important.

Page 13: Purely Summer Magazine

BBG is so different from other programs in that you actually SEE results. How long did it take you to refine the program so that people really see a difference?

I trained my clients using my own unique training style for more than 4 years prior to releasing the BBG, and my focus has always been to motivate women to be happy and confident. I believe one of the most important parts is understanding what your goals are, being consistent and also being kind to yourself. I personally believe that having realistic goals that fit into your lifestyle and working on them consistently can help you feel amazing.

The daily workouts are a quick 28 minutes each. What's the benefit of these shorter workouts?

I hear many women tell me they want to make a difference in their fitness and confidence, but they don’t have enough time. I wanted my 28 minute workouts to be able to fit into women’s busy lifestyles, and when it works out to being only 2% of your day, it’s so much easier to fit into your schedule! And the best part is that you can complete these workouts from the comfort of your own home. I want to make it my personal mission to show women that you don’t need to spend hours at the gym in order to be active and healthy and to see results!

What best-result workouts are your go-to'sfor arms, abs and legs?

I personally believe that a balance of different types of exercises that help target a combination of muscle groups works best, which is what you’ll find in my Sweat With Kayla app. My training method consists of 28 minute resistance training sessions, which you do 3-4 times per week. I also recommend HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) and LISS (Low Intensity Steady State) training sessions on other days as well as rehabilitation sessions and rest.

Do you follow any sort of diet?

I enjoy eating foods that align within my Nutrition HELP (Healthy Eating and Lifestyle Plan), which includes all the five main food groups. Fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes and dairy as well as a small amount of healthy fats are a part of my daily meal plans, and are also within my Sweat With Kayla app. I have so many clients telling me that they are lacking energy and I find that a healthy diet (along

with regular exercise) is so beneficial for this. In saying that, it is so important that you fuel your body with foods that are beneficial for you and make YOU feel great!

What foods and snacks do you eat for workout fuel?

It really depends on how I’m feeling! Sometimes I’ll have a piece of fruit such as mango, chicken and rice, or tuna on whole wheat crackers.

What are your favorite words of motivation?

I think my favorite words of motivation have come from my dad… He was the one that encouraged me to follow my passion within the health and fitness industry. My grandparents didn’t think it would be a good profession for me (they are very traditional Greek), so they discouraged me to continue to pursue my career as a personal trainer and I almost didn’t do it because I love and care so much about what my family thinks! That’s when my dad stopped me and said, “Are you going to stop doing something you love because someone doesn’t like it? You do whatever YOU want to do and whatever makes YOU happy.” It’s always stuck with me and continues to motivate me each day.

italiannight

The inspiration for Italian Night came from my newest cocktail obsession: the Limoncello Spritzer. Limoncello, prosecco, club soda and

basil combine for a palette-pleasing, refreshing libation AND my new go-to summer drink! The rest of the dishes on the menu are equally as light, yet as with all Italian dishes—incredibly

flavorful + satisfying. Buon appetito!

There’s no doubt about it – I am a morning person and I truly believe that how I start my morning sets the tone and intention for the rest of the day. With that in mind, I’ve devised a morning routine that works for me. These are the six things I do every morning to get my day started on a healthy track:

1. DRINK HOT WATER WITH LEMON + APPLE CIDER VINEGAR – this tonic of alkalizing lemon and apple cider vinegar is a small but effective way for me to hit the reset button every morning. It helps to cleanse my system and because I’m not a coffee drinker, it offers something warm and comforting to sip on as I wake up.

2. MEDITATE – I spend some time meditating every morning. Ten minutes is all I need. I either sit in silence and set a timer on my phone or choose a guided meditation. I notice a vast difference in how I approach my day once I’ve given myself this time to clear my head.

3. JOURNAL MY VISIONS + INTENTIONS – While I’m not religious about this one, if I notice my mind is really active during my meditation, I take a few moments to journal stream of consciousness about what’s coming up for me or my intentions for the day.

4. START WITH MOVEMENT – After 45 minutes to an hour of alone time, I hit the gym. I must start my day with exercise because it makes me more focused and productive. How I exercise depends on what my body needs – I switch it up with cardio, strength-training or yoga.

5. EAT A NUTRITIOUS BREAKFAST – My favorite meal of the day! Breakfast always consists of protein, fiber and healthy fat whether it’s eggs, a protein smoothie bowl with Purely Elizabeth granola or chia pudding. Again, my breakfasts vary depending on what my body is craving.

6. PRIORITIZE MY TO-DO LIST – Once I’m properly fueled, hydrated and energized, I take a look at my to-do list and decide where I’ll focus that day. I’m always more focused in the morning, so I tackle the most important and urgent tasks then.
