Run, Walk, or Row - The Choice is Yours!
The unique structure of this program provides workouts for BOTH the rower and for running/walking on a treadmill or outdoors! You have the flexibility to choose your preferred form of cardio - knowing you'll have tailored workouts to help you train specifically for your choice! You're never "locked" to one or the other and have the freedom to choose your challenge for every workout!

Nervous to Run? Power-Walkers, Unite!
Getting "into running" can be very intimidating... I'm here to help you every step of the way - but if running isn't your thing for one reason or another, every workout is tailored to work for the avid Power-Walker, too! You'll have peace of mind knowing that you'll be getting results either way you choose! And you don't even need a treadmill!

Outdoors or Indoors - Your Choice!
This program is designed to give you the FREEDOM to choose to do your cardio outside or indoors! Want to do all of your workouts on your treadmill? Go for it!
