Kayla Itsines BBG Beginner Program: What You Need To Know – ELLE Australia

Fewer burpees, plenty of sweat!

By Sukriti Wahi

Australian fitness trainer (and burpee queen) Kayla Itsines has officially launched a brand new addition to her fitness empire: BBG Beginner, a precursor to her internationally popular BBG program.

"As a busy working mum, I understand the challenges of finding time and motivation to exerciseit's not easy to prioritise your emotional and physical health," Itsines said.

"After having Arna, I started with light postpartum exercise and then progressed to training as a 'beginner' to rebuild my strength and fitness. It was a long road back with emotional highs and lows to return to where I am today."

Looking to get back into exercise? BBG Beginner might be just the ticket. Here, we break down everything you need to know about Itsines' brand new program.

If you've fallen off the exercise wagon of this year (and let's be real, who hasn't?) and have been struggling to get back into the rhythm of working out, BBG Beginner might be exactly what the fitness-doctor ordered.

Suitable for women who are new to fitness or looking to get back into exercise, it's much lower in intensity than Itsines' original BBG program (so you won't have to stress about lying in a puddle of your own sweat immediately after your first workout).

Another bonus? You won't need a gym to complete the exercisesjust some light dumbbells and resistance bands and you'll be well on your way to rebuilding strength, posture and confidence, A.K.A. all things we want in spades.

Want a taste? Check out the video at the top of the article for a preview of BBG Beginner.

The workouts will follow the same circuit-style structure as the original BBG, featuring a very manageable two to three workouts per week, most of which are low impact and (very slowly) build towards the high-impact exercises.

As such, there won't be any sign of classic BBG moves like burpees and squat jumps until around week seven of the program (hallelujah!). In fact, jumps have largely been taking out of the equation altogetherbut don't worry, you'll definitely still work up a sweat.

You can also expect to find a lot more modified versions of classic moves, like knee-based push-ups, as well as a number of exercises with resistance bands for added burn factor.

Music to our ears (and glutes).

For $19.99 per month or $119.99 per year, you'll not only gain access to BBG Beginner, but eight other workout programs from other SWEAT trainers.
