12 week program focusing on lower body mobility and upper body hypertrophy. Designed for the trainee who doesn't want to train the lower body heavy and just be healthy. I built this program for the trainee who has some wear and tear on their body and just can't train their lower body the way they could in the past. Each day will have some upper body work and the arm days will have lower body mobility and stability training. There are two different upper body workouts and two different "Limb" workouts. They will be done in a rotating fashion 3 days per week, hitting each workout once every 9 days.
