This program is all about building a rock-solid foundation!
We’ll focus on:
✅ Boosting overall conditioning for better endurance and strength
✅ Strengthening your core to improve stability and power
✅ Mastering functional movements that will set the stage for future gains
✅ Not just liftig but MOVING with weight!
We will be working on variations of the squat, bench press, and deadlift to address weaknesses and build a stronger foundation. Each strength workout also includes core exercises, mobility work, and conditioning.
📆 4x/weekl
1️⃣Squat/Lower
2️⃣Press/Push
3️⃣Deadlift/Pull
4️⃣Full Body
5️⃣Mobility/Recovery
If you have ever wondered how to add farmer carries and front carries to your strength program ,I provide many different ways to train these movements so that everyone can benefit! These exercises are a fun way to sneak in more conditioning and core power and have HUGE carryover to your powerlifts!
✨💕I have never been so excited to announce a program! This is all about improving yourself and focusing on your own wins.

MOVE 💨
30 seconds sprint, 90 seconds rest (6-10 rounds) Choose something preferably upper body based (either battle ropes, jumprope, ski erg, handles only assault bike) that gets you out of breath - you should be gasping for air when you finish your high intensity! If you really want to do the running kind of sprints, then go for it- just remember it is a part of your overall lower body fatigue, so be mindful. Each week, you should notice more output for your high intensity or simply your ability to recover between rounds. You can start with fewer rounds and add rounds when you can if you are just getting into interval training. Use the interval timer below.
