The Practical athlete

 The Practical Athlete is designed for people focused on overall health and longevity while building muscle in the gym.

What you’ll get

  • Dedicated Warm-Ups:

    We understand the importance of priming your body for peak performance. That's why every workout in "The Practical Athlete" begins with a carefully crafted warm-up sequence designed to activate your muscles, increase blood flow, and prepare your body for the demands ahead.

  • Specific Muscle-Group Activation Sets:

    We believe in targeting muscles with intention and precision. Our program includes specialized activation sets that target specific muscle groups, ensuring they're firing on all cylinders and ready to tackle the main workout with maximum efficiency.

  • Designed for the Home Gym:

    You don't need a fancy gym to build strength and muscle. "The Practical Athlete" features strategic hypertrophy movements specifically tailored for home gym setups, allowing you to achieve significant gains using minimal equipment.

  • Multi-Planar Core Exercises:

    True strength extends beyond the confines of the gym. Our program incorporates multi-planar core exercises that challenge your stability and strength in various directions, keeping you strong and resilient in real-world scenarios outside the gym.

✺ Frequently asked questions ✺

  • Each cycle will be 6-8 weeks long. The programs will always be in a hypertrophy cycle. In the future, standalone program options will be available for anyone looking to build strength or prepare for a race.

  • The 4-5 main strength movements will repeat every week for each cycle, but the RIR will change progressively until we work towards failure in the final week.

    The functional mobility sections will also become more challenging as the program progresses.

  • The upper body workouts should take between 45 and 60 minutes, while some of the lower body workouts may take 70 minutes, depending on your rest time between sets.

  • Our workouts are designed to be done anywhere (although we have biased most of the movements for a home gym). If you don't work out at a home gym or you're not in your typical set-up, select one of the suggested movements for the given repeating exercise that day based on what you have available at the time.

  • We will not have programmed cardio, but we definitely think adding some Zone 2 cardio sessions throughout the week can be helpful. After all, this program was built for athletes! We expect most of you to be runners, cyclists, hikers, swimmers, etc. So, we know you'll be doing more outside of the programming.

  • Nutrition is not included with the programming, but you can hop over to our sister company, Elevated Pursuit Nutrition, to check out the coaching options!
