FAQs
Who is this program for?
For any female athlete looking to improve her performance on the field or court, strength training is a must! This program is designed to teach you fundamental movement patterns like the squat and press and progressively overload them with a focus on technique.
Should I train two days in a row or take a rest day between?
If you can, take a rest day between the days! If not, there is no problem to train back to back days! As long as you get both training days done in the week, you are golden!
How long does each training day last?
Every training day should only take you around 45min to an hour! This way you can fit it into your schedule with daily practices and games!
I have some training experience, should I still do this program?
This program is our foundation of all of our other programs. We eventually teach you Olympic Lifts and highly recommend starting here so we can instill the basics, based on the Relentless proven method!
I have a game later today, should I still train?
If you can get the training in another day during the week, focus on the game today? If not, go ahead and train! Your body needs consistency with training more than anything else for it to impact your performance!
