Gym Jones High Level Foundation I

Gym Jones

Functional Fitness, Strength & Conditioning
Coach
Cate Williams

Our Foundation programming is meant to give you a mental and physical break from the rigors of highly structured periodized training, without losing any momentum. Consider Foundation if any of the following apply to you:

  • You just finished a training cycle at peak sport-specific performance and want to get back to a general strength and conditioning
  • You've taken a break from structured training and want to get back at it
  • You're in a rut with your current programming and want a change of pace, but aren't sure what that looks like yet
  • You're looking for general strength and conditioning with no specific goals in mind (yet).
  • You want to take a minute to "have fun" in the gym again

For all of this and everything in between, this program is for you! Get back to baseline and ready for whatever comes next with Gym Jones High Level Foundation I

This program is meant for someone with a training background (even if it's been awhile!). For progressions to this program, check out our Foundation: Kettlebells and Foundation: Dumbbells programs!

Get back to baseline
Foundation is meant to bring you back from either end of the fitness spectrum, get you to baseline and ready to get back to business. Whether you've taken a break from training or are coming off of a grueling phase, a Foundation program is a great way to bring balance back to your training.

Combat burnout (without taking a break)
Hard work in the gym takes a toll, both physically and mentally. A Foundation phase gives you a much needed break from chasing numbers and target paces, and places more emphasis on how you're feeling. If you're tired, sore, and just plain sick of training, this program is a great way to get you feeling good in the gym again.

Fall in love with training again
If you've lost sight of the reason you started training in the first place (i.e. the fun part), Foundation is a way to find that again. It's "a little bit of everything" to help you remember all the things you love about the gym.
