These workouts are approximately 30 minutes (sometimes longer, sometimes shorter), but deceptively challenging. The majority are focused on building strength with some metabolic conditioning mixed in, which means you’ll often get breathless and sweaty. Each week includes a mix of strength- and metcon-based workouts. These workouts are all about getting the most bang for your buck, so they’re intended to be efficient and effective while making the most of your time!

RECOMMENDED TRAINING CALENDAR

Includes is a super easy-to-follow 8-week programming calendar with each of the 4 days of training outlined to help you stay consistent. Print it out and hang it where you’ll see it everyday to keep you motivated and on track with your workouts. Each workout also includes a space to record pertinent workout details (i.e. weight used), so you can track your progress and continue to make gains.

MINIMAL EQUIPMENT REQUIRED

The workouts require just two sets of dumbbells (1 light, 1 heavy) and some space to move. No gym membership or fancy machines are required. This workout program is perfect for those who exercise at home or on the go.

The workouts require 2 sets of dumbbells: a heavy (for you) set and moderate-to-light (for you) set. Of course, the more variety you have, the better since various movements require different weights. If you only have 1 set of dumbbells available to you, you can absolutely complete this program. But, keep in mind, having a variety of weights will make this program most effective. Kettlebells, medicine or slam balls, resistance bands, and/or a barbell can be substituted for many of these exercises. Recommendations: If you only have access to 1 set of dumbbells, I’d recommend getting something in the 10-20 lb. range. Two sets of dumbbells are ideal—one heavier (20-45 lbs.) and one lighter (8-15 lbs.). 

VIDEO DEMOS + POINTS OF PERFORMANCE

All workouts include video demos and points-of-performance for each exercise as well as a private Facebook community where you can ask questions and get suggestions for exercise modifications, if needed. The program also includes optional warm-ups and a week-by-week training calendar to keep you on track, so you stay consistent with your workouts!
