Plan Description

You don't have a lot of time for strength training.

But you know you need to, heck you even want to!

Going to the gym takes too much time, and besides, you really don't feel like waiting in line for the machines you want to use, or deal with the "gym bro's" and their attitudes.

You want a program that will get you the best returns, in the shortest time, and with the least amount of equipment. You need a program that also helps you balance out all the hours you spend pedaling, without needing to sit and do yoga or static stretching for hours each week...

The 8-Week Kettlebell Strong program is exactly what you need!

Built to be time efficient, and extremely effective, this program gives you two 40 minute strength workouts and 1 Kettlebell Power workout a week, in a format that is designed to:
-Open up not only mobility, but strength through range of motion in your hips, shoulders, and upper back
-Teach you to re-engage your glutes, and train your posterior chain to create insane repeatable power
-Breathing strategies that not only will help boost your HRV scores, but also help you recover faster on the bike between hard efforts
-Boost your on-bike power AND comfort, helping you ride longer while feeling great
-Take stress and strain off your joints so you can look, feel, and move 10 years younger

This 8 week program will challenge you to move better, not just through your legs and hips, but through your shoulders, and torso- two areas that must be built up if you want to climb, sprint, or TT better than you ever have before.

Designed to compliment any riding program except in your 4 weeks pre-peak race/event, this powerful little program will have you adding valuable lean muscle mass, that has you looking great in your kit, and riding faster with less effort.

Dubbed "My secret game-changer weapon" by the riders who've done this program in the past, this powerful program does all this with just a Kettlebell and a single band.

*Beginners to strength training are recommended to have an 8kg (~20#) Kettlebell and a 2.5cm (1inch) "pull-up band".

**Intermediates strength training athletes can choose to use either an 8kg or 16kg (~40#) Kettlebell and a 2.5 (1inch) "pull-up band"

***Advanced strength training athletes can choose to use either a 12kg (~30#) or 20kg (55#) Kettlebell and 2.4 (1inch) "Pull-up band"

A nice side effect to this little "nuke" of a program, is increase fat burning, for a leaner, more fat-efficient you.
