First Steps Transform App Program

Who is this program for?


If you identify with any of the below, First Steps is a great place to begin your journey!
  • Sedentary/Inactive
  • Elderly
  • Obese
  • Recovering from injury
  • Experiencing limited mobility
If you are completely new to exercise,  or if you're immobile/have been inactive for a very long time and want to gradually introduce your body to movement, this is a great first step (pun intended!).

What are the benefits of the program?


This program is designed to introduce your body to movement again. It’s focused on increasing:
  • Flexibility
  • Posture
  • Upper Body Strength
  • Lower Body Strength

How does the program work?


Each week, this program will consist of:
  • 3 workouts
  • Up to 6 optional Accelerators (starting at a minimum of 5 minutes to 15 minutes minimum as the program progresses), which are cardio-based exercises to help increase fat burn and accelerate weight loss.
  • Minimum of 1 Rest Day (depending on how many workouts & Accelerators you choose to do during the week)
  • Program length: 12 weeks (3 months) of exercise programming available

What are the exercises like?


The workouts start very light in volume. Then week after week, the volume will progressively increase as your body moves better and gets stronger and more fit.
By the time you are finished, you should see a noticeable difference in your flexibility, strength, stamina, and muscular endurance.

Is any equipment required?


No equipment is required for this program! All you need is your body, a chair/couch, and a dowel/broom.

This Fitness Test will help establish a baseline of your fitness level, so you can see ALL of your incredible progress as you advanced throughout the entire program.
Week two is when the real fun begins!

Exercises in this program are focused on moving the entire body through basic, functional movements.
Through things like AMRAP (as many rounds you can complete as possible), Rounds for Time, Stepladders, and more, the exercises in this program are designed to “gamify” the weight loss process, so you are competing against yourself–and yourself only!
