FAQs

Who is the program for?

Team Jerry is for any adult who is committed to getting strong, reducing stress and improving their overall health.

Is this program like CrossFit or Interval Training?

No, the Team Jerry takes a functional training approach to programming to put you in position to get strong, burn calories and workout safely. We do not program any Olympic lifts or any other high impact exercises like box jumps, etc.

What experience do I need?

Team Jerry is for any fitness level, but it is recommended that you have some training experience.

What if I don't have or missing some of the required equipment?

You can also substitute exercises using the exercise database inside the app, but we recommend that you invest in the required equipment if you are working out from home. If you have gym access, check to see if your gym has this equipment first.

What if I need to switch exercises?

No problem! You can switch exercises during the workout using the exercise database.

Is this program customized to my goals?

Unfortunately, no it is not. Team Jerry is a group training style program.

I have a question about an exercise...

No problem! You can message me directly through the app. I will do my best to respond quickly, but due to in-person and online training please allow up to 48 hours for a response. I will do my best to respond quickly.

Do I need full gym access?

No, you don't need a gym membership for this program, though we RECOMMEND gym access. If you have a home gym this program will work for you as well. Please make sure your gym or home gym has the required equipment for this program.

How often do the workouts change?

Each month a new program is released. Every so often we will change up the pace using density circuits, block training and other methods to adjust the workout format to shake things up for you.

What if I miss a day on the calendar?

No worries! You can go to the missed workout and move it to a different day on your calendar.

What if an exercise is too difficult or I have an injury?

No problem! You can switch the exercise during the workout. Example: if we call for a slider pushup, you can switch it for a regular pushup. There are plenty of regressions we can choose from.
