LIFETIME ACCESS! There is no hard start and stop. This is your unlimited toolbox to begin incorporating these exercises into your everyday life! I will be teaching you how to incorporate them into your day so that you can increase fitness and begin seeing results!

This course is self-paced. You can start anytime and take it at your own speed. Need to take things slower? Take one week schedule and spread it out over three weeks! You can customize the course to fit your needs and timeline.

Life happens! I don’t expect you to stick to the program perfectly, 100% all of the time. You are a busy, awesome, woman with a full schedule! Each week we will be planning your workouts in advance, into your calendar, in a way that works for you. There will most likely be weeks where you’ll need to make adjustments based off of your personal schedule. Do the best you can with the suggested weekly workouts and make modifications when needed. If you miss a day, pick right back up where you left off. The goal of the SB program is not to be perfect but to make progress. It’s also to teach you how to build a consistent exercise program that allows you to see results.

Yes and I highly recommend it! Once the 6 weeks are up, I suggest going through the program a second (or even third!) time. This allows you to continue to advance your skills, build on what you know, gain more strength, and become masterful in the weight room. Plus, you will most likely want to repeat the strength workouts because they are fun, challenging, and rewarding!

I designed the Strong Body program to be a comprehensive guide with everything you need to accomplish your health and fitness goals. I don’t expect you to be able to digest and understand it all in only 6 weeks. I want you to have the resources you need to refer back to as you continue to grow, evolve, and progress within your wellness. These topics are common within all of my coaching clients and I want to support you in having the information you need to succeed. You invested in the program and now you have it as a resource for the rest of your life. Take your time with the information and come back to it whenever you need for guidance or motivation. This is one of the best parts of the Strong Body program, it’s always there for you to return to when you need to re-fresh your fitness routine, kickstart your health habits, or get a little extra lifestyle support.

In this program I recommend you strength train, for a minimum, twice a week. This number has been shown to provide many of the health benefits of resistance training. Each week you’ll be receiving two downloadable strength workouts and fitness schedule. For the purpose of this 6 week program, I suggest following the proposed workout schedule as closely as possible.

Yes, You can strength train on the same days you do your aerobic training if your week is too busy for separate workouts.

Feel free to modify workouts as needed to work with your body and feel your best. I’ll provide exercise cues and demonstrations so that you have alternatives. Remember: some of the new exercises will feel hard – they are NEW to your body and meant to challenge you in a different way. The goal should be to work up to mastering each exercise in skill and strength (thats how you make progress!). Don’t sweat it if you aren’t “strong enough” yet for all the suggested sets and reps in each workout. You’ll get stronger and work your way up to it as you continue to progress.

I’m going to teach you! This program is designed to help you learn proper form and movement mechanics for each strength exercise. I will give you the guidance you need to learn to listen to your body, move mindfully, and see results. Working with this program to establish a foundation of strength-training knowledge and good form will allow you to get started safely and effectively.

In this program, I will also suggest days for cardiovascular training. Cardiovascular exercise keeps your heart, lungs, and blood vessels healthy while boosting your metabolism and giving you a good sweat. It’s also great for stress relief. I’ll help you customize each week to fit your personal needs, preferences and goals.

Varying the intensity of your workouts will allow you to be more consistent and avoid injury. Think about it: if you do too many high-intensity workouts, you’ll burn out fast. If you do too many low-intensity workouts you’ll plateau and won’t see continued results. In the program, we will vary the intensity of your weekly workouts from low, to medium, to high.

Your body and mind love when you mix it up. This will keep your body guessing, and the results will keep happening. As you work through this program I’ll help you vary your workouts throughout the week. We will change your routine often, changing the intensity, type, or time. This will help you prevent boredom, stay motivated, and continue to see results from your training.

The Strong Body program also includes flexibility, mobility, and self massage. Regular self-massage and flexibility training will help you untangle knots of tension and give you the tools to eliminate pain or move past stress-related injuries. It also will help keep your joints mobile so that your body lasts longer and is pain free for decades. It will help you reset and recharge your body to achieve your optimal state of well-being and performance.

Be patient!! If for some reason your results seem disappointing, do not despair! The program will work! Perhaps you have had some trouble adjusting to the program . That is ok, just stick with it. It will get easier every day. You might also try taking a hard look at the intensity of your workouts. Were you challenging yourself enough? Also, were you eating proper portion sizes of the meals you have prepared? Have you been keeping up with a clean diet (and being mindful of things like alcohol and excess sugar?). How is your stress, sleep, and hormone balance? Remember: all of these elements come into play when you want to make a change to your body. Continued effort, patience, persistence, and sticking with healthy lifestyle habits is the key to seeing changes over time.

We celebrate! After the 6 weeks are over you’ll have completed 12 different strength workouts and 6 consistent weeks of fitness. You will have learned new movements and experienced different exercises. You will have gone out of your comfort zone (mentally and physically). You will have a new toolbox of ideas, workouts, exercises, and resources you can use to challenge your body and see results. You will feel energized, confident, and stronger in your body and mind. By completing the 6 week program you will have committed to a goal, taken action, and followed through. You will feel proud of yourself for this accomplishment, for making time for yourself, and for making yourself stronger (inside and out).
