Stronger Tomorrow Personal Training

Coach
Dan Hergert

Welcome to Stronger Tomorrow's 4 day, upper/lower strength training program. This plan is perfect for anybody who wants to get in the gym most days of the week and likes emphasizing a few muscle groups at a time. The program is based on compound movements to get the most bang for your buck, with isolation movements for the arms, shoulders, and core built in to hit the smaller muscle groups as well.

Exercise demonstration, sets, reps, rest periods, and descriptions are all included in this program so you know exactly how to perform each workout with maximum intent. All you need to do is input the weights you're using and try to beat them the next time you perform the workout. It's that simple.

Stop messing around in the gym, and start seeing real results with Stronger Tomorrow.

Improved Strength
Strength is one of the defining characteristics of a long and healthy life. You need to strength to walk up your stairs, to get up from a chair, and to be independent. Building strength as early as possible and maintaining it is a fundamental requirement to be the best you can possibly be.

Increased Bone Density
Most people don't consider how important bone density is until it's too late. If you want to make sure your body is as resilient as it can be, improving bone density via strength training is one of the vital pieces of the puzzle.

Increased Muscle Mass
Amount of lean tissue is strongly correlated to improved lifespan. Adding and maintaining as much muscle as possible is as important to an healthy life as eating a healthy diet. Lift heavy, build muscle, build strength, live better.

FAQs
What about cardio?
You can perform optional cardio on your own. My recommendations: 1. Perform 10-15 minutes of medium intensity steady-state cardio at the end of each workout. 2. If you want to do harder cardio, do it on rest days. 3. Walk every day outside of your workouts. Aim for 10,000 steps per day.
How should I warm up for my workout?
Do whatever you want to warm up. Stretch out tight areas or perform some light cardio to get your heart rate up and break a sweat. You know your body best, look at the session and prepare for the exercises as needed.
