Hi Rob When you say a beach body do you mean large or ripped? In 7 weeks with some good solid CV work, a well planned diet and hitting the weights you should be able to cut back some fat and increase the visible size of your muscles. Some more information on your diet, current training (if any) access to gym or equipment and your goal would help.

Your diet needs a lot of work, I suggest looking in the diet section for the best advice but as a basic rundown:- eat ever 2-3 hours include protein with all meals try to stick to slow acting carbs Training wise what equipment do you have at home as this would alter my routine advice based on what you can do effectively with them. As you are aiming to appear more ripped I would start with unfuelled am cardio, stripping the fat will make any muscle growth more defined.

I dont see any point really wieght training for 7 weeks then leaving it, do weight training but only if you continue with it when you get back, casue lets be realistic you wont gain that much visible muscle in 7 weeks, building muscle a full time job, takes commitment etc But no doubt a ripped look it possible in 7 weeks depending on your current weight, BF% etc Post up pics then poeple ont he forum can tell you if you could realistically get ripped in 7 weeks.

3-4 days a week full body workout. Cut carbs down just use them during morning meal and befor and after workout. Take the crap out your diet, reduce portion size. Tbh in 7 weeks unless your genetically gifted or 100% dedicated with every last detail nailed your not going to see much of a result.

7 weeks isnt enough time to really add any muscle, but you could trim any excess fat, which gives the appearance of more muscle. get your diet sorted, cardio sorted and weights routine sorted.
