Program Description
This program is for the regular Joe who leads a busy life. I’m sure we would all love to be in the gym 7 days a week but that’s not realistic for most. Life is dynamic and can often times lead to fatigue, hectic schedules, and a lack of motivation. Enter the Skeleton Key. A program with the goal of rebuilding your strength and muscular base, motivating you to return to the gym, and creating the routine of physically exercising. 7 days is intimidating, 2 days is doable, so get it done. Once the 8 weeks in completed, you can either run it again or look to transition to a 3 day program such as 5/3/1 or Barebones 2-day. In addition if you are looking to build a baseline for cardio this program is excellent to run concurrently with Jumpstart.
