Ashy Bines Bikini Body Challenge Kick Start
Verified70 reviews
Very ambiguous – Signed up for the 12 wk bikini challenge finishing in November 2016. All fine not for me though only for the beautiful people. I was unaware that I signed up to be a life member at $41.01AUD a month I did not authorise this not happy, the bank said that I would have to cancel my card and as they have these very dodgy terms and conditions I don't… Read more
really have a leg to stand on, when I disputed this and asked them to stop I got a very polite email stating we didn't here from you so we just went ahead.....No, what do you get every month? access to the beautiful people app and fb page? Any way I was sent a link to the terms and conditions mumbo jumbo and if there is anything else we can assist you with, yes stop taking my money......
So I cancelled my membership!! outcome pending. Moral of the story I am sure this program works for some people but just read the fine print before signing up to anything with this mob. At the end of the day its a business.
Women's group training at its best – Trainers are supportive and informative, adapt to personal requirements I.e. Injuries or requested home workouts if you miss a session. If you follow the program you see the results. Builds body confidence.
HORRIBLE! STAY CLEAR – SCAM SCAM SCAM! Run while you can! They will lure you into agreeing to terms and conditions which include useless hidden subscriptions by offering 'free goodies' which of course end up costing you over $39 per month without your knowledge. Run run run!

Good program due to local trainer – I have been participating for just over 18months. I think it is a good program with varied workouts. I have seen results and am happy with my overall results. The program is easy to follow and I have seen results by following it both strictly and not. The recipes are okay and the online support system is average. The girls in my local group and… Read more
the head trainer are wonderful which is why I keep coming back. I would love too see more equipment purchases than money spent on software and webpage upgrades. As I find the actual session the most powerful. It would also be nice if headquarters were more open about changes and letting us know how those changes will impact us. Especially concerning T&C an packages that are discontinued.
Perfect for connecting with people – I have been with the program since Jan. I love the program and the people I have met. My trainer is my rock and she is absolutely amazing, everyone loves her. The workouts are good and you see real results happening. When I saw ashy bines advertised for Chch. I was more excited about the personalise meal plans, as that is my down fall. What I was… Read more
not so happy about is that the meal plans are not personalise or indivaidal to each person so it was sort false advertising. Although the food meals are good I have not seen a real benefit from them as they have not been personalised for me and the health issues I have. I will still continue you ashy booty camp as I enjoy the people and the community we have there.
Enjoying each week's challenges – I lost 6 kg in the 12 week kick start programme. I'm still training with ABBBC and I'm now starting week 20! Every session is different, I am constantly challenged. I enjoy how our trainer pushes ourselves, she is approachable, flexible, motivating and easy to talk to. She also sends daily messages full of great advice and motivational notes. … Read more
I personally enjoy the weekly challenges such as 'Beat the clock', 'cardio challenge',... and I really push myself to improve my last record.
Meal plans, meetings and online support have been sent regularly.

Keep getting charged! – Don't do it!!! I keep getting charged! Even though I canceled back in June! It's now August & I keep getting charge $40+ plus a foreign currency fee I have emailed them as to why I have been charge and for a refund! Noting yet! No support at all! So many better programs that are cheaper!
Theft! Unsupportive ! Scam like team – After getting my bank account debited since May for a " two week free trial" and getting one response only and told to read Terms and Conditions which I did and so did my lawyer nothing states after the two week free trial which only only accept terms on the first page initially with name and email only which is deceptive doesn't not state you… Read more
have to cancel after the two week period therefore had had no response since! CBS has been contacted so has my bank so has the fraud team at Adelaide Police station head office ! Never received any corrospondance regarding this trial, nor did it state it takes money from your bank account that you got from my app purchase , I have never recieved these terms and conditions nor have I seen a contract with consent .So to take funds without consent and knowledge it's fraud and theft ! Do not sign up ! Still waiting on a response quick to reply about terms and conditions slow to reply once you have stuffed up !
DO NOT DO IT – I paid money, less than $15 for an app basically, and now $40 AUD has come out of my account. No word of monthly payments ANYWHERE, but apparently they are in the T&Cs - I'm sure the girls emailing me have never sat and read T&Cs in their lives. Scam and rip off, false advertising, such a joke.

Did not enjoy – Was extremely difficult to exit the program. Was charged for longer than I wanted to attend with no refund offered. I only signed up for a trial but was charged for the whole program
Keep motivated – PT is so friendly and helpful. Food meal plans and online connection with amp tho people who is in boot camp with us. Love and enjoyable for this workout team.
A newbie to fitness – I have found the training sessions to be great, I haven't been able to attend many sessions but each time I have our trainer has been wonderful, supportive and encouraging always offers variations that in able to do that I find challenging in themselves.
Awesome change – Love the workouts, personal trainer is awesome! Meal plans were bit pricey and I just stuck to my own meal preps. Enjoyed bootcamp even though I couldn't make 3 times a week.

Great group fitness – Results equaled expectations. Program is very easy to follow Provided with group fitness classes, plenty of support both online and off line, food plans and goal setting sessions, great group of girls
My wake up call – It is a great way to engage the body and be happy with the active self. The workouts are different every session and Jess is very inclusive, making it lively and enjoyable.
Great program! So much fun! – I didn't really know what to expect but this program has definitely exceeded any expectations I thought I had. Cannot recommend more highly! It truly is awesome fun & the trainers are amazing.
Helps to keep me motivated – So far the program has been great for me. I love that you can see your results online and track your progress. I also love that we get recipes, weekly meal plans and online exercises to follow. The boot camps are also very motivating and supportive which is great. This is the best exercise ad diet program I have tried so far.
Just love it! – Honestly, I've never followed the meals plan but I've got everything I was looking for for, find an exercise that I would love doing. I haven't lost much weight but I am much faster and stronger than when I started. I definitely feel much better.
Loving it – I have set myself quite a few personal goals and at four weeks in I am happy to say I've stuck to the guidelines and am on my way to actually reaching my goals. The program is simple to follow and I love the meal plans - recipes are easy and yummy. Our trainer Jess is great and super supportive, along with all of the other girls in the boot camps and online forums. :)
It's amazing and has motivated me a lot – Since starting I have lost 3.5 kg which is incredible for 3 weeks, the program is easy to follow and the nutrition steps keep me in line towards my goal!
Love love love – Everything was provided, the trainer is amazing and very motivational. Well worth the money, umm it's only my second week into it so hopefully the results are coming. :)
Good fun – Work outs are good and accommodate all fitness levels. Fun opp to meet new girls. Meal plans and food quite expensive/hard to follow. Would prefer more information on what exactly to eat.

Great! – I've only just started the programme so can't review too much. I am enjoying it so far. The best bit for me are the recipes that we get and the support from other girls on the programme.
Great program, excellent support – Great program, gives lots of support. Amazing trainers and love that it's females only. Trainers give lots of varied workouts and rarely repeat same workout twice, which makes it fun
New Begginings – I am not a morning person however I chose my 3 weekly sessions to be the 6 AM sessions because work didn't allow me the time for the evening bootcamps. Now I cant imagine starting my day any other way and I wake up excited to train. I liked the first session when we learnt not only our weight, but also body fat %, body water %, netabolic age, kg… Read more
of muscle and more. This allowed me to focus more accurately on whats important instead of a fluctuating weight on the scale. The group sizes are always around 10 girls so you know you get the focus from your trainer and not lost in a crowd. I absolutely love it and recommend it.
So glad I joined! – Having so many other like minded women makes exercising really good fun! I am much more committed to this program rather than a gym membership. Loads of online support as well as meal plans and plenty of encouragement through the forum.
Changed my lifestyle! – I've tried heaps of other weight loss programmes and have always lost motivation, this is the only programme I have ever stuck with. There's a huge sense of community, and so much support from the trainers. Although no real meal plans are provided, My trainer has taken time to look at my meals and makes sure I'm eating properly and always checks… Read more
in to see how I'm going.
I do two classes a week on the kick start programme, which is perfect for me as I work full time and I go to the gym on the days I don't do the ABBBC classes.
Most of the classes are pretty high intensity and sometimes can be tough for me as I'm pretty unfit... But I'm getting better.
There is a real focus on a healthy lifestyle rather than a quick weight loss diet. I would definitely recommend the programme too any woman who wants to change her lifestyle!
Awesome! – The program is fantastic, support was great, easy to follow. The meal plans were customisable which was good. My results weren't great but that's not a reflection of the program that's my commitment.
Amazing programme! – I have always wanted to join a ABBBC group and when I moved to a different suburb and thought now is my chance! We are a fitness family and the trainers are amazing! I have made some great friends already. I cancelled my gym membership as I wasn't pushing myself or seeing results. At ABBBC Holland Park these trainers know their stuff! They push,… Read more
motivate you and are always there for you. The forum is great for any questions or even posting funny fitness memes ;) I am starting to see changes in my body which is exciting. You also get meal plans to follow from Ashy but the trainers are always happy to answer any questions or will take time and go over anything with you. I just wished I had joined sooner!
Best thing I ever did – The program is fantastic. The trainers are so supportive and I don't know how I'de live without it. It's changed my life and have lost over 40 kilos. Can't thank you enough.
Really easy to follow! Great Recipes – My expectations have definitely been met. I was nervous because at 39, I was unfit & worried that I couldn't keep up. The head trainer has been great in answering all my questions.
Never stepping foot into a gym again! – Hien and the trainers at ABBBC Glenelg provide the best holistic support to fitness and well being I have ever encountered. I feel that ABBBC is more than just the three classes I go to each week it's a place that I connect with and get inspired to be the best I can be. I don't ever want to step foot in a gym again!
Love being a part of this fit family! – It is a very interactive and motivating group to be a part of. Everyone is always so supportive and eager to lend a hand. Support is provided face to face as well as online and through telephone if needed. We all have the ability to access knowledge about how to become healthy and maintain a healthy lifestyle. The workout sessions are my favourite part of the week (even if they're challenging).
Good starting point – I have really enjoyed the ABBC challenge. There's an excellent environment at every session that's about ensuring everyone is doing their best. There is a good balance between pushing yourself while listening to your body, trainers are always happy to give you an alternative if you need. The only criticism is that I feel there should be more afternoon sessions.
Love It – I have just started Ashy Bines Bikini Body and I love it!! I love Ashy too I follow her on social media. The programs are good I hate going to the gym and have no motivation to work out on my own so i need that help and for someone to tell me what to do. Only constructive criticism is the dashboard. It's not mobile friendly and it's hard to navigate around.
