Why Your Plan Works
These are the training principles backed by research. Your plan uses all of them.
Your Plan Gets Harder Over Time
Each week, your workouts get a little harder. This is how you keep making progress.

The Right Amount of Volume
Not too much, not too little. The sweet spot for building muscle.
Schoenfeld et al., 2019 - Medicine & Science in Sports
Hit Each Muscle Twice a Week
Research shows 2x per week beats 1x per week for results.
Schoenfeld et al., 2016 - Sports Medicine
Recovery Weeks That Matter
Planned lighter weeks so you can recover and come back stronger.

What's Included
Everything you need to train with a plan — and nothing you don't.
A Plan Built for You
We ask about your goals, your equipment, and how many days you can train. Then we build a plan that fits your life.
Based on Real Research
Your plan is built on 47+ peer-reviewed studies. Not bro-science. Not guesswork. Real training principles that work.
Your Plan Gets Harder at the Right Pace
Each week, your plan adjusts so you keep making progress. More weight, more reps, or more sets — it depends on what you need.
A New Plan Every Month
Each month, you get a fresh plan that builds on the last. Your body keeps adapting. You keep seeing results.
Swap Exercises When You Need To
Machine taken? No problem. Swap exercises without messing up your plan. We'll suggest alternatives that work the same muscles.
Recovery Weeks Built In
Every 4th week, your plan dials back the intensity. You recover, your body adapts, and you come back stronger. It's automatic.
45-60 Minute Sessions
You don't need 2-hour sessions. Your workouts are designed to get results in under an hour — so you can get in and get out.
Your Whole Month, Planned Out
Not random workouts. A real program. You'll know exactly what you're doing every day for the next 4 weeks.
