Former Athlete 6 Week Guide is an intro to the A2L 2.0 Membership. Train like an athlete, whether you still competitively compete or not. Build the strongest, leanest, most athletic version of yourself while having access to a coach (me) and a community to help push and hold each other accountable.
This guide serves as a kick start to developing or re-developing your athletic qualities through strength and power training, functional movements, mobility work and conditioning training. By using science-based principles and the most effective compound movements, this membership will help you start to unlock your athletic abilities, no matter your age or stage of life.
This program offers training each day of the week, whether it be heavy lifting + power training, conditioning or recovery work to make sure you are equipped with everything your body needs to succeed!
