Strength Practice I is a 6-week, 3-day-per-week program for people who want to start strength training without feeling rushed, overwhelmed, or unsure about what to do
This program is for you if you're new to lifting, coming back after time away, or wanting a solid routine that helps you feel more confident with the basics. The structure stays the same each week so you can practice key movements - squats, hinges, pushes, pulls, and carries - and actually get familiar with them.
You’ll also find a few short, optional mobility sessions designed to help you stay moving and feel better between strength days. These are meant to support recovery, not add more work.
Designed by Morgan Munoz, PT, DPT, this program prioritizes movement quality, appropriate effort, and building strength you can sustain. Each workout includes demonstration videos, clear coaching cues, and guidance on how hard to work, so you're not guessing.
If you want a calm, thoughtful entry point into strength training, this is a great place to start!
