Been out of the gym for a while? 

Did you take some time off lifting due to an injury?

Ready to start a new program but not sure which one is right for you? 

MainTRAIN is for you!

We won't beat around the bush, maintaining a workout regimen is hard. When we take breaks away from the gym, it's SO hard to get back into a routine. This is why we developed the Annex Maintrain Program.

This 8-week program is meant to get you off the couch and back into the gym in a safe, functional, and maintainable fashion. We work through specific areas of the body to allow strength development as well as adaptation and recovery from one day to another.

Each week includes four training days focusing on the Quads and Hip Flexors, Vertical Pulling/Pressing Strength, Hamstrings and Glutes, and Horizontal Pulling/Pressing. Every other week will be repeated to allow you to build in weight and intentisty the second time around when you're more comfotable and confident in the movements.

Weeks 1 and 3: ACCLIMATION

Weeks 2 and 4: ADAPTATION

Weeks 5 and 7: PROGRESSION

Weeks 6 and 8: PERFORMANCE

As you progress in this program, it is your job to keep building in weight as well as range of motion each week to push progression.

Some of the movements within this program will be newer to you. These movements are meant to get you into an end range of motion (extension, adduction, abduction, rotation, and flexion) and force you to be active and stable in each of these capacities. If we have a deficit of strength within these areas, we could have a potential problem on our hands later on down the road in our training.
