Great program to get back into strength training. You can easily modify it to increase or decrease difficulty and it progresses nicely each week!

Am coming back from a major surgery. This program helping me start with home weight lifting with free weights. Easy to make modifications as needed. Good for starting slow and gaining back my fitness.

Great program! Great progression in exercise difficulty and there’s lots of variation. I like how posterior chain focused it is - My posture is improving! Also contains a thoughtful warm-up for each workout. I’d recommend it if your main focus is functional strength for day to day life.

I am experienced in weight lifting, but needed a program to get back to the gym after years recovering from chronic fatigue. This program is well designed, and I was able to make it more challenging by adding weight.

This is a great program for the beginner getting into the gym/functional training for the first time, and also for those (like myself) who are old hands but are easing back in after an extended period away. The exercises are all functional basic movements, not designed for giant growth but for helping you gain basic strength and confidence and to help you feel great. Justina is a clear and confident coach who gives excellent instruction.

Haven't been working out consistently since before COVID. This was an excellent way to get back into things. Feeling much tighter all the way around.
