**Build the Basics** is a 6-week beginner training program designed to help you learn the fundamentals of exercise, build confidence, and create a consistent routine that you can carry forward.

You’ll complete **two simple resistance-training workouts each week**, designed to introduce you to the basics of strength training without feeling overwhelmed. Alongside your workouts, you’ll have **daily activity goals** to help you become more active and establish movement as a regular part of your day.

This program isn’t about doing everything perfectly or pushing yourself to your limits. It’s about learning where to start, building healthy habits, and showing up consistently.

Over the six weeks, you’ll develop a better understanding of how to exercise, gain confidence in your ability to train, and begin building a routine that fits into your life.

FAQs
Who is this for?
This program is ideal for beginners who are unsure where to start with exercise and fitness. It's designed to help you build consistency, establish healthy habits, and gain confidence through a simple, structured approach to training. No prior experience is required.
How much communication will I get with the coach?
You'll be able to reach out with questions and get support a couple of times each week. This program is designed to give you the structure and guidance you need to build confidence and consistency on your own.
What if I need more individual accountability and support?
If you'd like more frequent communication, accountability, and a program tailored specifically to you, 1:1 coaching may be a better fit. Together, we'll create a plan built around your goals and lifestyle.
What if I miss a workout?
That's okay! This program isn't about being perfect, it's about building consistency. The goal is to complete your 2 workouts each week, and you can do them on whichever days work best for your schedule. If you miss a workout, just get back on track and keep moving forward.
What if I don't have certain equipment?
No problem! Exercise substitutions will be provided when possible, so you can adjust workouts based on the equipment you have access to while still getting great results. If a substitution isn't available, you can message the coach to get it sorted out.
