How to get your body into perfect shape? Drying the body for girls at home is the way out! The monthly menu by day will help you dry out and lose excess weight. Proper drying is the sponsor of your ideal figure!
The ideal body is what many people dream of. Going on a diet is the first thing that comes to mind. But without exercise, even if you adhere to all dietary restrictions, it is unlikely that you will be able to build an ideal body. Drying programs are often used by athletes before competitions and simply regularly to bring the relief closer to the desired one.
General principles of nutrition during drying
Try to avoid fast carbohydrates, preferring slow ones.
Before adjusting your daily diet, you need to study the basic principles of the drying diet. These include:
- eliminating fast carbohydrates
from the diet (flour products, ice cream, soda, chips, cookies, foods high in sugar); - eating exclusively unsaturated fats,
but in smaller quantities than before the diet (mayonnaise, lard, butter are strictly prohibited); - the last meal is taken 3-4 hours before bedtime
(an exception may be a glass of kefir before bed or low-fat yogurt); - It is recommended to eat not 3 times daily, but 4-5,
but in smaller portions; - if you have bad habits (smoking, drinking alcohol), the drying diet will not be beneficial;
- the athlete, while following a diet, drinks at least 2 liters of water daily;
- When increasing physical activity, it is permissible to use mineral and vitamin complexes
- without their participation, the muscles do not have time to recover.
It is known that when cutting, body weight should decrease due to fat burning.
If during training and dieting your weight stops decreasing, you need to analyze your food for sugar content.
The amount of incoming calories is reduced by 300-400 kcal (women) and 400-500 kcal (men).
It is not advisable to eat food later than 2 hours before an intense workout. You need to wait the same amount of time after finishing it so that the food brings maximum benefit.
About 2/3 of the daily diet is taken before 14-15 hours.
Breakfast is a key part of the meal; they cannot be neglected. The duration of the diet is from 4 to 6 weeks; a longer period aggravates the functioning of the digestive system and gastrointestinal tract.
Reduce your intake of fats and carbohydrates so that your body begins to break down its own fats.
The emphasis is on protein and carbohydrate foods,
and the amount of the latter gradually decreases. The following are protein foods that can be consumed unlimitedly.
- Chicken egg white (boiled or fresh).
- Chicken breast, skinned with fat and steamed.
- White fish with minimal fat content (pollock, tilapia) without added salt, oil or preservatives.
- Cottage cheese (fat content no more than 5%).
- Squid fillet.
Excess salt leads to water retention in the body, and oil will again add subcutaneous fat.
- Oatmeal.
- Brown rice.
- Pasta made from premium whole grain flour.
- Legumes (chickpeas, lentils, peas; also good sources of protein).
- Buckwheat grain.
- Fresh green vegetables (cabbage of any kind, cucumber, celery, carrots, boiled beets and turnips).
- Fruits (apples, bananas, pears).
- Berries (frozen are an excellent alternative to sweet dishes).
The denser and sweeter the fruit, the more calories it contains. For example, an apple contains 50-60 kcal, and a banana contains about 200 kcal.
Saturated fat intake is reduced to zero,
and unsaturated ones - to a minimum. Good sources of the latter are recommended for consumption:
- Fatty fish (trout, salmon) and fish oil (in moderation).
- Nuts (walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts).
- Flaxseed and olive oil (as an addition to salads and other dishes).

Monthly meal plan
If you have 5-10 kg of excess weight, cutting is simply pointless. First, lose weight as usual.
The previously presented menu is ideal for the first seven days
an athlete with average performance.
Over the next seven days, fruits are excluded from the diet,
and the last meal consists of cottage cheese, kefir (5 days a week), boiled fish and chicken (other 2 days).
The third week is accompanied by the elimination of sugar,
replacing consumed vegetables with 2-3 extra tablespoons of cereal or 50-100 g of meat.
During the fourth seven-day period, the menu consists of 60% cereals,
portions of which increase by 40-50% from the first week.
Such a diet should not be practiced more than 2 times annually, regardless of sports goals.
A full nutrition cycle during drying ends in a month,
however, professional bodybuilders or experienced amateurs increase the duration to 1.5 months. In this case, the fifth seven-day period involves abandoning cereals in favor of protein foods (peas, chickpeas, beans), and the sixth involves eliminating dairy products with a gradual return to the menu of the first seven days.
In a month of following the prescribed rules, the athlete loses up to 10 kg of excess weight, acquiring a slender body.
Cutting the body is a method of weight loss, the goal of which is to lose weight by getting rid of fat reserves, while preserving muscle tissue. This method features a strict low-carb diet. Drying the body for girls is a weekly menu that involves combining nutrition with intense physical exercise. Initially, it was used by bodybuilders to reduce body fat and gain muscle definition. Gradually, this complex began to be used for figure correction not only by athletes. Let's look at the features and menu for the week.
Exercises for the first week
“Mad drying” (tasks for each day can be the same or change daily) in the first week gives participants the opportunity to perform one set of exercises for 4 sets with a break of 1 minute for all 5 days.

Basic principles and rules for drying the body at home
An ideal figure is the dream of every girl, and to get the coveted shape, all means are good. Drying involves quick, real achievement of the desired result. The essence of the method is to exclude carbohydrate-containing foods from the diet. Refusal of simple sugars helps to consume existing fat reserves, which supply the body with the necessary energy. Therefore, drying the body for girls, the menu for the week includes protein foods. When following this type of diet, the following rules must be taken into account:
- The duration of the diet is 6 weeks.
- Food is divided into small portions.
- The rate of fluid intake per day increases to 2.5 liters.
- To control the amount of food consumed, you need to keep a daily calorie count.
- During drying, aerobic sports (fitness, step aerobics) are required, alternating with strength training in the gym.
- At the beginning of drying the body for girls, the weekly menu should contain a small amount.
- You cannot immediately eliminate all carbohydrates from your diet. The transition to protein foods should be gradual to avoid stress on the body.
- Towards the end of the diet, carbohydrate intake is reduced to a minimum.

Diet for girls and women
When drying the body for girls, the weekly menu must include protein and carbohydrate foods, provided that they do not contain simple sugars and high fat content. The menu does not include cheese, fatty meat (pork, duck, beef), smoked sausages, stewed meat, canned meat, lard. The drying diet should consist of protein foods. The list of prohibited foods includes foods rich in fat:
- mayonnaise;
- sour cream;
- olives;
- butter.
Effective weight loss requires maximum limitation of the consumption of sweets, baked goods, and fruits. It is not recommended to use salt, spices and sauces during drying. Due to the significant physical activity that is included in the drying program, the bulk of food should be consumed before lunch. All calories received at this time are completely absorbed without being stored in fats.
List of approved products
The menu for girls when drying their bodies includes a low-carbohydrate diet. Protein foods rich in protein will help rid the body of fat, but not “burn” muscles. It is a “building material” and promotes the growth of muscle fibers. The protein menu for every day when drying includes the following products:
- lean fish;
- seafood;

- legumes;
- egg white;
- poultry (turkey, chicken), rabbit, veal;
- dairy products (cottage cheese, kefir, yogurt) with low fat content.

Carbohydrates are the main substance that supports the normal functioning of the central nervous system. It is recommended to include vegetables, pasta, cereals, and unsweetened cookies in the diet.
These products are absorbed gradually and do not provoke significant insulin releases. It is recommended to consume them either a couple of hours before playing sports or before lunch. During the drying period, the diet should not be meager, otherwise starvation will lead to poor health and lack of strength to attend training and perform physical exercises.
Tips and recommendations from nutritionists and trainers
Fitness trainers and professional nutritionists recommend following several rules during the drying period:
- You should not combine carbohydrates and proteins, for example, fish/meat and cereals.
- High protein foods are best eaten alone or combined with green vegetables.
- Drying is not suitable for people with a high body mass index. To carry out such a diet, you first need to lose weight.
- To save the result obtained, i.e. a minimum amount of subcutaneous fat, proper organization of the exit from drying is necessary.

What can you eat when drying your body in the following weeks?
Proper weight loss when drying the body for girls, the menu for the week, starting from the next 7-day period, provides for reducing the amount of carbohydrates consumed to 1 gram per kg of body weight. At this stage, complete abstinence from fruits is recommended. If you feel hungry, then in the first part of the day you are allowed to eat 1/2 of an apple. In the evening, you are allowed to eat only low-fat kefir, cottage cheese, boiled fish or steamed white meat.
The third week of drying is the most difficult. It provides for a maximum reduction in carbohydrates to 0.5 g per kg of weight. Only foods containing large amounts of protein (legumes, meat) are left on the menu, with fruit completely excluded. The amount of porridge consumed is reduced. The 4 week menu resembles the nutrition at the 3rd stage of drying with a reduction in cereal consumption to 6 tbsp. spoons a day. In the first three days of the 5th week of drying, dairy products and cereals are excluded, leaving meat and vegetables. Then there is a smooth return to the diet of the first week, which is maintained for 6 weeks.
Body drying diet for girls
- a popular nutrition system aimed at getting rid of fat deposits and normalizing weight as quickly as possible. The peculiarity of this diet is that the goal is not just weight loss, but a reduction in the amount of fatty tissue in the body while maintaining muscle mass. Previously, “cutting” was often used by male bodybuilders who were trying not to leave a single gram of fat on their body, while pumping up sculpted muscles. Recently, this dietary nutrition system has been the choice of many girls seeking to lose weight and create an ideal figure.
What else you should know about drying in 7 days
Before you start drying, answer yourself honestly the question of whether you have anything to dry. In the absence of muscle mass, cutting for 7 days is pointless - relief will not appear, and the body will experience stress. This method of losing excess weight is practiced only if you regularly visit the gym and have developed muscles. If you work out with a trainer, he will advise you on drying issues and evaluate its potential effectiveness.
The most important thing is that drying cannot last longer than 6 weeks. Otherwise, the benefit from it will be less than the harm. During this period, you need to support the body with the help of vitamin complexes, drugs to support immunity and fat burning products. You cannot prescribe medications on your own; it is best if the trainer draws up a list of necessary medications.
When drying the body, the volume of liquid consumed per day should be sufficient to replenish the body's resources - at least 30 ml of still water per 1 kg of weight. So, a girl weighing 60 kg should drink at least 1.8 liters per day. Some believe that if you drink a lot, fluid will be retained in the body, and this supposedly slows down weight loss. In fact, water helps remove accumulated harmful substances from the body, and also stimulates metabolism and eliminates excess salt. If you don't get enough fluid, weight comes off more slowly and your body's resources become depleted faster.
Men and women who are cutting reduce the amount of salt in their diet. Ideally, you should not add salt to your food at all. It is also not recommended to use seasonings. Of course, the menu for drying cannot contain harmful products:
- fast food;
- fried, spicy, smoked food;
- sugar;
- mayonnaise, etc.
You will have to give up not only such food, but also bad habits: while drying, you should not drink alcohol, smoke or abuse caffeine-containing products. This slows down the process of weight loss and has a detrimental effect on the state of the cardiovascular system.
An important rule is to maintain a daily routine with sufficient hours of sleep and mandatory breaks between workouts. The body spends a lot of energy losing fat and growing muscle mass during exercise, and energy needs to be replenished.
Cutting workouts and other activities should burn more calories than you consume. Therefore, you cannot dry yourself at home without complex physical activity at least three times a week.
If you decide to lose weight using express drying, first understand how many kilograms you want to get rid of. If you need to lose more than 5 kg, drying is not suitable for you. In this case, it is recommended to change the diet in accordance with the recommendations of the trainer and nutritionist, as well as regularly attend training.
In a week of intense drying, you can remove an average of 1 kg of fat mass. Keep in mind that the number on the scale may not change as much as you expected. The increase in muscle tissue compensates for the decrease in fat. Nutritionists do not advise losing more than 200 g per day, so as not to disrupt metabolism.
The meaning of the diet and its basic principles
Drying the body is carbohydrate starvation, that is, reducing the calorie content of food by eliminating a significant amount of incoming carbohydrates. Since excess sugars (glucose) with insufficient consumption entails the formation of fat deposits, refusal of such food helps to break down existing fats to provide the body with the required energy. Drying for girls is not much different from that used for men. The only exception is the slightly larger amount of vegetable oils allowed in women's diets.
Principles of constructing a “body drying” diet:
1. Be sure to engage in aerobic exercise during this nutrition program.
2. Eat fractionally, in small portions, at certain times of the day, up to 4-5 times.
3. Drink more water (up to 2.5 liters).
5. Do not eat before or after training (2 hours).
6. Do not give up carbohydrates completely at the first stage of the diet if the body is under severe stress.
7. Make dinner very light.
8. Don't skip breakfast.
9. The duration of the diet is up to 6 weeks; by the end of it, the intake of carbohydrates should be reduced to a minimum.
10. Up to two-thirds of the daily diet is consumed in the first half of the day.
11. A sharp and strong decrease in glucose should not be allowed to avoid complications.
12. All food is prepared boiled, stewed, steamed.
13. The total calorie content of foods per day is reduced by 300-400 kcal compared to the usual.
Exercising correctly: training program and exercises during drying
For those who are already eager to take part in the project, I can immediately warn you: although the crazy drying workouts are not long (only 30 minutes every day), they are quite active. In addition, the creators of the project openly advocate for gender equality, which means that tasks for girls and women are no different from training for men.
Every Saturday, participants perform a special control task on camera - so that mentors can see that people are actually training. According to its results, cunning people and lazy people leave the project.
The training itself has an eloquent name - “die, but do it.” Don't take it too literally.
The exercises are also quite interesting - you will have to perform “horizhops” (squats), “sisepols” (push-ups), “bulkoshares” (jumping lunges), “crazy joggers” (burpees) and other exercises.
The workout is usually circular and includes 6 different exercises. For example, 6 laps of:
- 20 squats
- 10 push-ups
- 20 hyperextensions (without a machine)
- 5 burpees
- 25 sit-ups
- plank 1 minute
Rest between circles – 1 minute.
Please note that this workout is designed for you to have some experience in physical training. If you have never played sports and do not know how to do push-ups, squats, and the plank is not a real task, then I do not recommend you to participate in the project. Start with simpler exercises that you know you can do. Then you can move on to such training.
Contraindications to the body drying diet
It is strictly prohibited for people with liver disease, kidney disease, heart and gastrointestinal disorders, as well as those who have a deficiency of muscle mass to experiment with nutrition. It is better to postpone the diet if you have an important and responsible task ahead, for example, passing a test.
What will you have to give up?
When drying the body, you cannot eat fruits, which often brings additional stress to the body. Animal fats are also excluded, and all protein foods are consumed only low-fat. Of course, you can’t eat fast food, bread, pastries, smoked meats, canned food, salty foods, drink soda, or alcohol.
What can you eat?
The basis of the diet is protein foods. Basic products - egg white, boiled squid, chicken breast, cottage cheese, white fish. In the morning you can eat oatmeal, buckwheat porridge, rye pasta, cucumbers, cabbage, greens, tomatoes, beans, bell peppers. The total allowed amount of carbohydrates is no more than 2 g per kilogram of weight per day in the first 2 weeks of the diet. Later it decreases to 1 gram per kilogram of weight per day.
It is imperative to season food with small amounts of cold-pressed vegetable oils. At first, you can eat a little whole grain bread until your body gets used to giving it up. In addition to water, drinking tea without sugar (green, ginger) will be useful.
Contraindications
Drying for athletes can be repeated twice a year, for ordinary people - no more than once. To avoid side effects, do not stop drying suddenly. The body needs to gradually return to its normal diet.
Drying is contraindicated when:
- pregnancy;
- breastfeeding;
- intestinal pathologies;
- diabetes;
- diseases of the cardiovascular system;
- kidney and liver problems;
- inflammatory process in any of the gastrointestinal tract organs;
- insufficient amount of muscle mass;
- increased mental stress (for example, during a session);
- increased emotional stress: stress at work, emotional burnout, depression, etc.
How to eat next?
From the second week, it is advisable to give up fruits completely, or leave half a day, no more. The evening meal should include only cottage cheese, kefir, boiled meat, and fish. From the third week, the refusal of fruits should be complete. From the fourth week, the amount of cereals per day is up to 6 spoons, and from the fifth week, cereals are also abandoned in favor of protein foods. The sixth week of the diet excludes dairy foods, and after that you need to gradually return to the menu of the first week.
Over the entire period of time, drying the body can help you get rid of 10 or more kg. weight, while the muscles acquire attractive relief. The disadvantage of this nutrition system is the imbalance of the diet in recent weeks, so it should not be practiced more than 2 times a year.

During the drying process, two main tasks must be solved - eliminating fat deposits and preserving the muscle corset. In this case, the result can be achieved by organizing the correct training process and balanced nutrition.
But which diet regime is suitable for girls? Which products should you prefer? Below we will look at the menu for drying the body for women for every day, as well as the features of this process.
The essence of drying
When a woman sets the goal of losing excess weight, she changes her diet - she stops eating foods with fast carbohydrates and saturated fats. But the drying process involves not only dietary restrictions, but also physical exercise.
You should adhere to the following rules:
- Avoid switching to high-repetition exercises. Otherwise, the muscles will stop receiving the usual load and will begin to “crumble.” The ideal option is to leave the strength training regime
. - You definitely need to add aerobic exercise. They help burn excess fat deposits. The best option is to start with three cardio workouts a week for 30 minutes
, gradually increasing the time to 50-60. - It is forbidden to abruptly remove carbohydrates (even if a strict diet is chosen to dry the body). The transition must be carried out smoothly, week by week.
Expected results
When drying, the level of subcutaneous fat decreases, but muscle mass is preserved.
Due to this, the body becomes toned and the muscles acquire relief. However, the expected results depend on a properly selected diet and exercise program, and on factors such as:
- Age. By age 40, metabolism slows down. Therefore, after 35 years, the period of fat burning will require a lot of time.
- Physical data, i.e. presence of fat deposits. The more problem areas, the longer you need to apply diet and training.
- Physical training. If a person is a beginner, then the intensity and complexity of the exercises should be increased gradually.
Subtleties of nutrition
Drying the body in bodybuilding is a gradual rejection of carbohydrates, which are sources of energy and the main enemies for the figure. The reason is that after entering the body, such elements are processed into glycogen. If there are too many of them, then the entire subsequent volume is spent on fat accumulation.
But there is a nuance here. If you completely give up carbohydrate foods, then glucose deficiency occurs. As a result, the body accumulates toxins, which subsequently poison it. How to act in such cases?
Basic Rules:
- Liquid must be supplied in sufficient quantities. This is important, because this is the only way foreign waste products and ketone toxins are washed out of the body. In addition, liquid, along with protein, participates in the formation of muscle mass. It is water that is the main solvent for incoming amino acids, as well as a participant in chemical processes.
- Counting calories should be an important part of your diet. Please note that the calorie deficit from the daily norm should be 20%
, no more. At the same time, most of the diet should be formed from natural protein. The easiest way to get it is from fish, chicken, eggs and cottage cheese. For a woman, the protein norm in the drying menu is 1.8-2.2 grams per kilo of weight. - Carbohydrates are allowed on the menu, but in small quantities. At the same time, they must be complex. Pastries, sweets and flour products are prohibited. Preference should be given to cereals and vegetables.
- Fat intake is also important, but, as with carbohydrates, they should be consumed in small quantities. They must be unsaturated (linseed oil, fish oil).
Basic products for drying
The average duration of a diet for burning fat and creating relief is 1-3 months. The duration of the course is adjusted taking into account the fat present on the body. Many people set the goal of eliminating excess deposits in one week. But practice shows that this option is impossible. The transition from normal diet to dry diet should be smooth.
It is advisable to eat meals in fractions, that is, 5-7 times a day
. In this case, the diet should be formed only from healthy foods. As for the time around training, the distribution of nutrients here looks like this:
- All carbohydrates should be consumed in the first half of the day. It is allowed to take a small portion 1.5-2 hours before classes.
- Immediately after leaving the gym, you need to take high-quality protein (preferably isolate). After another 30-40 minutes, the body should receive protein from food.
If the task is drying the body, the menu for the week should be drawn up taking into account the following points:
- Prohibited foods are sugar, bread, cakes, juices, soda, fatty meats (lamb, pork and others).
- Foods that can be taken in moderation are corn, peas, beets, pumpkin, cereals, rice.
- Healthy - fresh herbs (parsley, lettuce, celery), low-fat cottage cheese, eggs, chicken or turkey fillet, low-fat fish.

Also remember the importance of proper nutrition
Carbohydrates and proteins: how much do you need?
Above, we have already touched on the importance of proteins and carbohydrates in the process of losing weight. But let's go even deeper into the topic. Let's start with carbohydrates. Excessive consumption of these elements reduces the efficiency of fat burning, and their deficiency worsens mood and leads to a decrease in energy. Lethargy, apathy, reluctance to go to the gym, an urgent need for something sweet - all these are signs of their lack.
What should be the body drying diet for girls in terms of carbohydrate foods? There are no difficulties here. The daily intake is 40-60 grams. On average, there should be a gram of carbohydrates per kilogram of weight.
. Further, it is possible to adjust this amount in one direction or the other.
As for protein, the normal level here is 1.8-2.2 grams per kilogram
. In some cases, nutrition when drying the body can be increased to a level of 2.5 grams per 1 kg. The main protein should come from food - eggs, fish, meat and others.
If we consider the diet in more detail, taking into account the transition from a regular diet to a low-carbohydrate diet, then you should proceed as follows:
- In the first week - carbohydrates in the amount of 2 grams per kilo. The basis of the diet is vegetables, eggs, chicken, rice, porridge, low-fat cottage cheese.
- The second week - the volume of carbohydrates is reduced to 1-1.5 grams, the volume of protein increases accordingly.
- The third week and beyond is the most strict period (it lasts until the desired result is achieved). At this time, the level of carbohydrates will be up to 1 gram per kilo of weight (in the final stages it may reach a level of 0-0.5 grams within 1-2 weeks). The level of protein consumed remains the same.
- This is followed by a gradual exit - carbohydrates gradually return to their original level.
Menu options
To properly build a diet, you should have an approximate menu in front of your eyes. Knowing the features of product selection, it will not be difficult to choose the right ones, taking into account preferences and the required number of calories.
So, the menu for the week when drying the body for girls:
- 1 day
. In the morning - oatmeal, two egg whites and tea. At lunchtime - cucumber salad and chicken breast. Afternoon snack - low-fat cottage cheese. Dinner - steamed fish with cabbage.
Day 2 In the morning - omelette and buckwheat on water. At lunchtime - boiled beef and pepper and cabbage salad. Afternoon snack - fish with asparagus, dinner - low-fat cottage cheese.

Day 7 In the morning - oatmeal, boiled eggs, tea. At lunchtime - fish with vegetables. After 1-2 hours - vegetable salad, and for dinner - low-fat cottage cheese.- Every day between breakfast and lunch, an additional protein shake is allowed.
The principles of nutrition when drying the body are discussed above, and a menu for every day is presented. But this is only an approximate option - you can adjust the diet at your discretion, taking into account the needs of the body and the characteristics of the diet.
Not every girl who goes to the gym is going to compete, but probably everyone will one day want to cut and see her body with a minimum percentage of fat. A period of fat burning should be carried out if a certain muscle mass has already been gained and there is a permanent period of work, calculated in months (at least six months), otherwise there will simply be nothing to “dry”. It is also important to understand that proper drying is not just about losing weight, it is about reducing the fat layer while preserving muscle mass as much as possible.
Drying for girls at home and for competitions is not much different, as is the daily menu, since in both cases the main task is to acquire a beautiful, sculpted body. The only difference is that in the last days of the competition, a more strict diet is used: water consumption is limited and carbohydrates are completely eliminated, and the day or a few hours before going on stage, the athlete consumes carbohydrates and gets a full muscular body.
But this is all very individual, and such actions are best carried out under the supervision of a personal trainer. If drying is required for life, then there is no need to carry out any schemes with carbohydrates and water. Let's find out what body drying should be like for girls. We will write out the menu for the month by day for the first 7 days, and indicate the principles of manipulating nutrients in subsequent stages.
