This schedule is for you if you already do some form of cardio and just want to add safe, balanced, convenient strength training to build lean muscle, protect your joints, and keep you aging strong. Perfect for runners, walkers, or those who take group fitness classes. There are 3 strength workouts a week that incorporate the fundamental exercise categories: Push, Pull, Squat, Lunge, Hinge and Rotation, and all their variations. Every 4 weeks you are assigned a fresh new set of workouts. Repeating the exercises in the workouts for a minimum of 4 weeks, applying the progressive overload principle, is HOW YOU GET STRONGER! These workouts can be done at home OR at the gym. The only equipment you need are dumbbells, long loop resistance bands, and a bench. If you workout at the gym, there are also suggested "gym swaps" for many of the exercises so you can take advantage of what your gym has to offer. NOTE: This is a 4 week sample of the Fit Strength ongoing schedule. If this schedule is a good fit for you, then send me a message in the app chat and I will switch you to the ongoing Fit Strength schedule where you are assigned a fresh new set of strength workouts every 4 weeks. If you are interested in a customized schedule where I customize each workout according to your fitness level, available equipment, and create a schedule that works around YOUR life, check out my 1:1 coaching plan. These also include weekly virtual coaching calls and/or text check-ins and form checks to help keep you on track to meeting your fitness goals.
