Ultimate Reset Cleanse: What to Expect in Phase 1 Reclaim

Here is is what to expect in week one of the 21 day Ultimate Reset Cleanse. Food, Supplements, & Support.

We began our journey to complete the Beachbody Ultimate Reset Cleanse feeling confident. This is the second time in 6 months that we have done Ultimate Reset Cleanse and we knew what to expect. The first time around we had incredible results. I lost 13.5 pounds and dropped my cholesterol 25 pounds and my wife, Hillary, lost 10 pounds and dropped her cholesterol 17 points in only 21 days!

Ultimate Reset Cleanse – Round 2

So, what did we expect this time around? Well, we knew what the recipes were like, how much time it takes to prepare foods, and what the supplements tasted like and how our body responds to them. For most people Phase 1 – Reclaim is the toughest. The first few days you can have meat (grilled chicken, eggs, wild salmon), but then that all comes to an end by day 3.  You cannot have red meat, dairy, caffeine or alcohol. You can’t even have ibuprofen for the headache that inevitably comes from giving up caffeine.  Apparently foods like these put a lot of stress on our digestive system. They also make the body more acidic and tilt your body toward an acidic state.

Ultimate Reset Cleanse: The Supplements

So, in week one you begin an eating structure and integrate 4 of the 6 supplements in the Ultimate Reset Cleanse: Alkalinize, Oxygenize, Mineralize, and Optimize. The first thing you may find challenging is breaking your own habits when you follow the structure of Ultimate Reset. People often mindlessly eat and just grab food without thinking about it. For the 21 day periods you will time out the supplements 30 minutes before each meal and then take them again 2 hours or so after each meal.

Drinking Water with Ultimate Reset Cleanse

One thing we found in the first week is that you start to drink A LOT of distilled water. And you would think you you would feel bogged down, but we have found that you lose a boatload of weight in the first few days. This time around I dropped 6 pounds in my first 2 days! You will begin change your body’s pH balance to become more alkaline. This allows your body to start releasing toxins. This is where you may experience aches and pains such joint pain, lower back aches and headaches. That all goes away in week two, so no worries!

Ultimate Reset Cleanse: Food

When it comes to food, you need to plan ahead. The first phase of grocery shopping is the most expensive. That is because you buy many items you might not have in the house like oils, vinegars, seasonings, etc. I think we spent about $250 for 2 of us the first time though, but this time was only $125 because we already had the supplies. Each week costs dramatically less (like about a 1/3 of the week one grocery bill).
Also, you need to plan ahead when it comes to making your meals. Some meals may take an hour to make because of marinating, cutting vegetables or baking. You will not be using a microwave in the making of your meals.

Ultimate Reset Cleanse: Exercise

One of the big adjustments doing this program is giving your body a break from working out. You are allowed to do walking, stretching and light yoga, however. We found ourselves doing the first phase of Tai Cheng (a Tai Chi workout) to meet our exercise needs.

Ultimate Reset Cleanse: Support

All of the directions, eating plan and even a how to prepare your meals are included in the Ultimate Reset Cleanse. You also get access to online tools and Facebook support groups. These are invaluable for support. You get to ask questions to the experts, and also be a part of a group of people going through the same process as you. Plus, you will also get the support of our very own private Facebook group and get exclusive coaching from Hillary and myself.

Summary of Ultimate Reset Cleanse

So, when you are done with phase one of Ultimate you are primed for the next phase where you release more toxins. Many people find this to be the most challenging phase because of the discipline and the releasing of toxins. Once you make it through the first week, you will find the rest of Ultimate Reset Cleanse to be a amazing experience! We recommend getting before and after blood tests (SMAC 23 blood test) so you can officially see the incredible results beyond the scale and visible changes.

You can do the Ultimate Reset Cleanse up to 4 times per year to flush out those horrible toxins that bog us down. Is it time for you reset your body and lifestyle and focus on what you put into your body? Ready to get started?
