Program Description

- The workouts are designed to take no longer than 45 mins. These are perfect for anyone who wants to make the most of their time in the gym, but not spend half their day there. 2️⃣ - This program focuses on QUALITY over quantity. We will be training at a high intensity and focusing on individual set execution to drive gains as time-efficiently as possible. 3️⃣ - Even though it is a minimalistic routine time-wise there is still a lot of variety. This is important to prevent boredom and stagnation. There are a number of unique exercises and techniques I haven’t used in any of my other programs! For most exercises we will be doing just 1-3 hard sets, so we have to make them count!
