Thinking about buying the Tammy Hembrow workout program?
Why I didn’t like it and the alternative that’s working for me..
This might save you some money!
Hi there! My name is Hannah and thanks for reading my Tammy Hembrow review.
Being a 29 year old single mum with very little support from their father has been super hectic.
After giving birth to Hayley (my first) when I was 24, I gained a lot of weight because I really struggled with the cravings.
Then, 2 months after Hayley first birthday, I found out I was pregnant with Aden.
Again, more cravings (chocolate milk and kababs lol).
I was 4 months pregnant with Aden and then their father up and left me for one of my so-called friends.
I later found out they’d been screwing behind my back for a whole year.
With all the stress from the break-up, I went into labor early and had to get a stitch put in to prevent Aden from coming so early.
Thankfully Aden was ok and I went full term.
You could say we had a very rough break up, possibly the worst time of my life.
I’d lost some of the weight after having Aden mostly from going through all the stress, the only problem was my butt was going south and I really hated the shape of it.
I needed a good meal plan and workout program to follow so I could get into shape.
That’s When I Found Tammy Hembrow’s Workouts
I came across Tammy on Instagram while searching for things like #fitspo and #fitspiration.
Going through her profile I noticed that she had over 7 million followers!!
So I followed her and started watching some of her videos and seen that she had her own fitness program.
I needed a workout program and a meal plan to follow because I’ve tried doing it on my own and failed multiple times.
Tammy’s guides are pretty expensive compared to some, the workouts cost $49.99 US and the meal plan cost $14.99 so that’s a total of $59.98 US !
That might not be much money for some people, but for someone like me who lives week to week, it certainly is.
I really wish I done some research before handing over my money because all I got where two simple pdf eBooks with a few images and descriptions of each exercise.
What’s really annoying and what the big disappointment was for me is most of the workout guide is full of useless pages of crap to make it look more than it is.
About 8 pages of the 29 (yes there is only 29 pages for $44.99) are all nonsense.
The disclaimer takes up a full page, the about this program a full page then there’s the eating guidelines and how to use the guide.
So really you only get 20 pages that have any valuable information on them.
The workouts are nothing new and to be honest I was expecting a LOT more for my money.
This is one of the pages:
The eBook is really simple and for the price, it was a big let down for me.
Call Me Cheap But It Gets Worse
For around $60 US you get a simple pdf 8-week workout guide with a few pages with pics and a pdf meal plan guide that is boring as hell.
That’s not the only cost but when you add it all up.
I also had to fork out for a gym membership, either that or buy a heap of gym equipment just to follow the workouts.
That’s another $60 per month or so just to join the gym!
I probably could have got the gym to write up a program for free.
From what others are saying, the Tammy Hembrow at home booty workout program isn’t that good either.
Then there’s the cost of the food.
This didn’t worry me too much but most of the stuff is expensive and you pretty much need your own personal chef to cook for you with these recipes.
One of the recipes in the meal plan:
Overall, I felt really disappointed.
Maybe if there was some workout videos or something else I probably wouldn’t have felt like I wasted my money.
I did give it a go but only lasted a week. To be honest I just didn’t like it.
That wasn’t going to stop me though because I was determined to get in shape and I wanted a rounder, firm and fuller butt!!
The Tammy Hembrow Alternative I Follow Now And It’s Working For Me.
I was pretty bummed out about the Tammy Hembrow workout program.
She does have a fit body and she definitely seems like a really nice person, I just didn’t like her guides.
But I didn’t give up there though, I was determined to get back in shape and still sick of the sight of my butt!
I searched for some Tammy Hembrow reviews to see if anyone else was feeling the same way as I was and found I wasn’t alone…
In a Facebook group, I came across, there were a few people there complaining saying how Tammy’s guides are a waste of money.
One of the ladies mentioned an alternative they found which was actually better but a lot cheaper called the Bikini Body Workouts by Jen Ferruggia.
I had to check it out for myself and thankfully I did because it’s the workout program I’m now following and I’m already seeing results.
If you’re like me – short on money, time and need videos along with a good meal plan, then, in my opinion, this is the perfect alternative!
You get a pdf full body workout program plus the booty workouts, you get workout videos to follow along with, shopping lists, recipes, workout schedules and you get the meal plan included.
Best of all it’s only $29.99 US which is a lot cheaper than the Tammy Hembrow workout guide alone.
(Update: Check the comments below, Kirra said you can get it cheaper if you get a coupon @ https://www.ilikediscounts.com/bikini-body-workouts-coupon/
Thanks Kirra!)
Tammy Hembrow Workouts vs Bikini Body Workouts
I will compare both of them so you know what I mean.
Total$29.99$59.98
| Type | Bikini Body Workouts | Tammy Hembrow’s Workouts |
|---|---|---|
| 12 Week Workout | $29.99 | $44.99 |
| Nutritional Guide | FREE | $14.99 |
| Supplement Guide | FREE | Not Included |
| Shopping Lists | FREE | Not Included |
| Interactive Workout Videos | FREE | Not Included |
| Website | Visit Website | Visit Website |
As you can see, you do get more with Bikini Body Workouts and it is a much better deal.
Also, with Tammy’s workout it’s an 8-week plan but with Jens Bikini Body Workouts it’s a 12-week challenge and you can do this at home or the gym.
Jen includes an extra guide for free, which is her 21-day booty workout and in my opinion, it’s a lot better than Tammy Hembrow’s eBook!
I’ve been following Jen Ferruggia’s workout program for 7 weeks and I can already see the difference.
My Results So Far…Week 7! (Updated)
I’m only 7 weeks in and I’m seeing some big improvements already. I feel like I’m getting stronger and I’m toning up fast.
My butt is much firmer and it’s starting to lift already.
I’m also noticing a big boost in energy too which is coming in very handy when running around after the kids.
Jen really motivates you throughout each workout and I think that’s why I’m doing so well.
Watching the videos while I workout really is like having a personal trainer pushing me to go harder.
And the nutrition guide is easy to follow, I’m even making healthy meals without even thinking about it now and best of all the meal plan is flexible and the food is affordable.
I was so used to take away and snack foods I almost forgot how to cook, but with the bikini body workouts nutrition guide I’m eating healthy and I’m loving it.
I’m proud of my results so far and very happy with Jens program. I definitely recommend it to anyone.
I will try and update my before and after shots every week or every second week.
Check out the before and after pics on Jens website for motivation – www.getbikinibodyworkouts.com
Hannah thank you for writing this, there seems to be a lot of mixed reviews on tammy hembrow and I’m thinking maybe people are buying her guide just because she is so popular on instagram. There’s a lot of people saying that her workouts and meal plan are nothing new.
I’m also a single mother and find it super hard to stay focused. I think the bikini workouts you’re following will best suit me because of the videos. Can I watch the videos on an android tablet?
I want to workout in my car port and be able to watch them in there. Congrats on your results hun, you’re doing great! Hope to see results like yours in the next few weeks myself.
Hi Kirra. Thanks for commenting 🙂
That’s what I found as well, mixed reviews and people saying it’s nothing new. I just didn’t like it because of how simple it is for such a expensive price? Jen Ferruggia’s workouts are a lot cheaper and you actually get more so I don’t know why Tammy has hers priced so high?
You can definitely watch the videos on a tablet because that’s what I do, kinda makes it feel like you’re working out with Jen.
I’m sure you will see results too, you just have to take that first step and keep at it. You actually become addicted, well I am anyway. Good luck Kirra 🙂
Hannah
Thanks hun.
By the way, I got a coupon for bikini body workouts from @ https://www.ilikediscounts.com/bikini-body-workouts-coupon/ saved me some money 🙂
That’s great! Glad you saved some money – I didn’t even know about it…Will update the post so others can see it. Thanks!
MEN!!! Thankfully I’ve never been cheated on but that sounds terrible Hannah. Dirty rotten bastard! (sorry just sayin).
I love Tammy to bits but her workouts aren’t worth the money trust me. I gave up because it became very boring. I’m looking at the workouts you’re following and they look very interesting. Is this a download or do they send anything to you via mail?
Thanks!
Hi Samantha! It was probably one of the worst times in my life that’s for sure. I just feel sorry for the kids now because he doesn’t see them – I think his girlfriend is stopping him? Ohh and don’t say sorry totally agree on that one!
Jens workouts is a download so they don’t send anything out to your house. You get to download everything straight away so no waiting for anything.
Good luck and thanks for commenting 🙂
Hannah
That’s really sad. Lucky the kids have a great mother like you, at least you seem to want to get your life on track. Thanks for answering, I actually went ahead and bought it not long after commenting. Downloaded it all and so far I’m loving it!
Time to sweat my butt off 😉
Ohh and thanks Kirra for the heads up on the coupon page, it worked for me and I saved 15% off.
Thanks again Hannah.
Good for you! I think that’s the hardest part – taking action and starting. Once you start you start thinking why didn’t I do this earlier. You go girl!
I was just searching google to see if anyone else thought Tammy Hembrow’s workouts sucked. I bought both the workouts and meal plan about a week ago – very disappointing 🙁
I’m 22 and need a good step by step routine I can follow when I hit the gym. What do you do when you complete Jens 12 week bikini program? I need something I can follow all year round.
Hi Bianca,
Sorry to hear it didn’t work out for you.
With Jen’s workouts, once you’ve done the program she recommends repeating the program increasing the intensity and increase the weights.
She also puts out new workout videos all the time. I love her program, it’s the only one I’ve actually stuck with, without giving up. Good luck hope that helps.
Hannah
100% agree with you on this one. I follow tammy because she’s pretty and rich ‘ even though a lot say it’s surgery ‘ .But her guides are terrible and over priced. I bought it and as soon as I downloaded the eBook I was like wtf, is that all???. Well done in your progress so far, you’re doing great! Keep going.
Hi Kate.
Thanks for your comment. I have heard she’s had surgery – do you know where and how many times? I agree with the price being to expensive it’s nothing new and definitely not worth it but hey I guess it all boils down to personal preference.
I certainly didn’t like it as much as I hoped but bikini body workouts is going great for me so far. Thanks for the kind words and motivation.
Hope you find what you’re looking for..

Can this bikini body workout help grow a butt? I have a flat bum and need some volume 🙁
Hi Karen.
Yes, definitely can help grow and shape your butt. You get the 21 day booty blast program for free with bikini body workouts. If you get it use the coupon code at https://www.ilikediscounts.com/bikini-body-workouts-coupon/ that Kirra suggested.
Hope this helps and good luck hun.
Hannah
hello, I’m like super skinny and have no shape. I’m about 100 lbs at 5’4, I was going to buy Tammy’s workout to grow a booty. Does Jen’s workout help you gain? I’m not trying to lose weight but to gain.. does that make sense?
Hi Ming.
Yes it does and Jens program also has the booty workouts included free which has helped with shaping my butt as well. That’s what I like about her program it’s got everything.
I personally bought it to lose some weight but also to shape my body and so far it’s working wonders. My butt has lifted and it’s more fuller, firmer and I actually have butt muscles lol.
Hope that helps.
Hannah
DO NOT BUY THE TAMMY FIT APP!!
I had to get a new bank card because they kept charging me and the app is rubbish. I totally agree with this news article – https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-6254923/Tammy-Hembrows-fitness-app-subject-complaints.html
So frustrating and a big waste of money. I used to be a fan of Tammy but ever since her and Reece broke up she’s gone down hill imo…
Going to give the bikini body workouts you recommend a try at least it’s a one off payment.
Sorry to hear Casey. Definitely frustrating!
Bikini body workouts is working great for me and yup, it’s a one time payment. I would never do the monthly subscriptions these fitness apps charge. I’ve heard waaaaaay to many horror stories just like yours.
Good luck hun and please let us know how you go xoxo
I would send it but don’t want to get into trouble. It’s definitely not worth the money so you’re not missing out on anything special but that’s my opinion.
Hello,
Omg.. I’m not the only one that is very disappointed with her 8 weeks booty guide in the gym.. i instantly was unsatisfied after I purchased it due to the fact that there were only pictures. I would be more satisfied for paying $60 for workout videos.. smh. Such a disappointment. On top of that I no longer have a gym membership so I feel like I totally wasted my money.
Sorry to hear Nhi.
Did you try get a refund maybe? What ever you do, don’t let your bad experience stop you from achieving your goals!
If you’re still in need of a more complete program with video, nutrition guide and workout sheets Bikini Body Workouts is great. Do what Kirra did and grab the coupon code at https://www.ilikediscounts.com/bikini-body-workouts-coupon/ to save some money. It’s almost half the price of Tammy’s guide and you get so much more.
I feel for u. I was a single mom of 4 with no support. That did change but it took time. U look wonderful. Congrats…. I hope things only go up for u… take care.
Thank you so much Wendy, appreciate the kind words. I’m glad things changed and worked out for you also.
Aww thank you for this tips. I don’t have kids but I do have 9 beautiful nephews. I’m sure life is not easy when you have kids but its a beautiful journey. As per your husband, Listen God knows why he is meant not to be in your life . I’m sure God has a future prince for you .
Thank you for your review I do like Tammy videos on Youtube but I’m sure the price of her program is just like you mentioned ( followers) I was looking at the other program you mentioned and it looks fanatic and honestly better price. I will give it try and see . i will start tomorrow and take before and after picture.
I wish you good luck to your and yours .
Ohh it’s definitely a beautiful journey Jenniffer, lots of really good experiences and I love them to bits. 9 nephews, wow, I feel for you when it’s birthdays and Christmas time.
And thank you so much for the kind words, I really appreciate it. I’ve been kind of seeing someone at the moment and starting to find myself again. Working out gives you a really good boost in energy and it’s addictive so it’s kept me busy and I don’t think about the past and pain as much.
Definitely keep us updated with your results and good luck.
Is this bikini body workout guide good for people in lockdown? Can we do it at home without much equipment?
Thanks Hannah for your time in putting this together- I was considering Tammy Hembrow and now will look at your options. I hate wasting money on info that’s already available free and videos are soo good.
Wishing you all the best too from another single mum !
