FAQs
How do I get the program?
Once you've selected to purchase the program you will be prompted to download the free app: TrainHeroic. You will create an account and from there you will be able to select the date in which you want to start training. You will have access to the program for a year on your training calendar!
What if I get sick or miss some sessions?
No worries! You get this program on your calendar for a year, so you can choose to come back to where you were up to or start from the beginning of the program if you missed multiple weeks. It's completely up to you!
What should I expect from an average training day?
Each session begins with movement prep. The start of your session will have 1-2 of your key power exercises. You will then have 2-4 strength movements with a power/speed focus and finish with some accessories/core. Each session is full body with an emphasis on building power for football.
What if I don't have all the required equipment?
There is an option within the app to "swap" an exercise if you need to change it based on your equipment. I will provide alternative options for some exercises that may be limited by equipment. Try to read through the required list to make sure you have most of the equipment or something similar!
