Let's face it.

Building muscle is hard.

Building endurance is hard.

Doing both at the same time is even harder.

Understanding how to draw up a program that builds you up in this way is a skill most don't truly understand.

It's a skill I've worked tirelessly to learn, and I like to think I've gotten pretty damn good at it.

It's my full belief that if you miss out on one, whether it's strength or endurance, you are doing yourself a massive disservice.

If you miss out on one, then you aren't living up to all that you should be.

There are lessons to be learned from both strength training and endurance training.

When you have both, you feel your best.

When you have both, you look your best.

When you have both, you perform your best.

Don't shortcut yourself.

FAQs
Can beginners do this program?
I would not recommend this to a beginner. If you have been training for less than 2 years, I would recommend you check out the 3- or 5-day per week version of this program.
Can I make "x" change or substitute "y?"
Most likely. You get constant access to me through the app. If there's any modification you want/need to make, I'd be happy to help you do so.
What equipment do I need?
Any commercial gym will have should have all the tools necessary. Swaps can be easily provided if need be. If your gym has an air bike, ski erg, or rower, then there are optional swaps you can make if you want to utilize them.
