FAQs

How much experience should I have before joining this program?

You should be able to perform foundational lifts such as squats, deadlifts, overhead press, and bench press. The most advanced lifts are power cleans, power snatches, and split jerks. Substitutions are provided for more advanced lifts or exercises requiring atypical equipment.

How much gym equipment do I need?

Commercial gym equipment would be ideal but at a minimum you need a squat rack, bench, barbell, plates, bands and pull-up bar. Dumbbell and cable machine exercises will be prescribed but perfectly effective substitutions are provided for the typical home gym setup.

How long is a membership? Can I cancel?

You can sign-up for a reoccurring monthly or annual membership. You can cancel in the TrainHeroic app to stop the membership from reoccurring. All transactions occur through TrainHeroic.

Is there coach support available?

Yes! Simply use the chat in the Train Heroic app and Coach Brelinski or another member will assist you.

How long are the workouts and how many days per week?

The general timeframe is 60-minutes per session, but this may deviate based on the training intent of the day. If short on time, simply put a time cap on your training session. Training will be posted five or six days per week depending on the training cycle and goals.
