FAQs
Do I have to train all 5 days?
No you don't have to! Although the program is designed for 5 days per week, you can do as many days as your schedule allows or whatever you feel comfortable with.
What if I don't have the equipment?
All exercises have modifications provided in the descriptions, whether that be equipment restrictions or injury restrictions. The most common recommendation is to do the exercise using body weight, only if extra resistance (ex: dumbbells) is not available.
How long will it take to see results?
Results will vary depending on habits performed outside the gym. Training will send a stimulus to begin muscle change and adaptation, but it will only be optimized with proper diet, stress management, and sleep efficiency. Stay committed and trust the process.
What should I do if I feel pain during training?
Always listen to your body. If you experience pain, stop the activity and, if needed, consult a healthcare professional. It’s essential to ensure that any discomfort isn’t a sign of an injury and to discuss adjusting your program accordingly with your coach.
