Femme Nativa

I’m trying to slim down after other workout programs bulked me up (whoever says women don’t bulk is full of it!) and this program came up in my online search. I love how you start with a body type quiz and a questionnaire which determine the workouts that will be included in your program, so it’s completely personalized to your goals and body type. I decided to start with the 21 day challenge and just finished the first week, and I’m already noticing a difference in my body! It also came with a free lean legs challenge which is also amazing (I do those on “rest” days). Her workouts are fun, challenging, and effective, and I love her no-fluff teaching style. She uses moves I’ve never seen before and I’ve been working out consistently for over 25 years! The videos themselves are great; the simpler workouts are done in front of a white wall and for the more complicated workouts she’s in front of a mirror so you can see the moves in different angles to follow along properly. There is also a PIP showing the next move which is very helpful. The app itself is clear, understandable, and easy to navigate, and it lets you check off the workouts you’ve done so you can keep track. You can also upload pics to track your progress, chat with others in the program, and see what other programs are available. And best of all, it’s not a monthly membership…you pay one price and get lifetime access to the videos! There’s literally nowhere else in the workout world where you’ll get this much bang for your buck!! I recommend this app 100% and look forward to my own continued progress (and using the rest of her programs in the future)!

I love Rachael as a trainer, she’s kind and caring and all about results, which in this day and age, asking for specific body goals is a no-no with some trainers. I already know how to move to feel good, and I’m not seeking that muscular look that’s popular. I have most of the programs, and for me, some are better than others as far as keeping my interest up (prefer RA instructed ones) but find all workouts short but effective. Walking has been a game changer too. Having said that, I wish RA had left Facebook group alone since app community chat is so hard to filter/navigate and lacking sense of everyone doing it together that the old FB group had for motivation. Also, streaming from phone/app can be frustrating at times and I really wish there was AppleTV app. And if I’m really picking, I never liked the name change to Femme Nativa. LLP all the way!

This is the only exercise plan I’ve ever seen that helps women slim down, especially the thigh area. I wasn’t sure what my body type was even after taking the test, so I asked Rachel and she was so sweet and informative and helped me figure out exactly what I needed. The meal plan is awesome, the workouts are challenging yet low impact, which saves my knees and joints from a lot of pain. Highly recommend her and her programs. I’ve yet to see them disappoint anyone who tried them!
