This program is for anyone looking to use a well rounded fitness approach to both improve body composition and increase their overall fitness level simultaneously. Meant to be done in a one-hour time block, this program will consist of a warm up, main lift, accessory superset, and finish with a conditioning piece. If improving your aesthetics while also feeling the positive effects of a well-built fitness program is your goal - BODY is for you!
This 5x/week program is split into two upper-body focused days, two lower-body focused days, and one day focused on sprint interval training consisting of running, burpees, and bodyweight movements. It is easily modifiable and there will be movement substitutions for those looking to work through the program with minimal equipment.
