FITNESS FOR ACTIVE PEOPLE
Intelligent fitness so that you can dare to do more.
So you know you’re using proper lifting form.
Taking the guesswork out of fitness.
(WE GUARANTEE IT)
You expect to see objective, undeniable results for the work you put in.
We agree.
That’s why we offer a Results Guarantee.
Any gym in the world can create a satisfaction guarantee, which is really just them banking on the fact that most people will be too uncomfortable to speak up and say they aren’t “satisfied”—whatever that means anyways.
What about something real? What about results?
No gym is crazy enough to guarantee results, right?!
We are. And we do.
If you attend at least 85% of your allotted sessions and don’t see at least 3 objective improvements in strength, endurance, mobility, and/or recovery in your first 90 days, we’ll pay the first three months at a gym of your choosing.
Kick ass, move mass, get stronger
High Intensity Intervals that get your heart pumping
A big pump workout that builds muscle like armor
Cardio training that gives you all day energy

If you’re wondering who farted…
We all lift heavy.
The goal of the plank is not to flex our torso, like a sit up, but to maintain position. Gravity is trying to force our lower back to arch, but we resist.
Then what?
Get your hands on Monday and grip it up hard.
How did @coryhudsonjr overcome nutritional obstacles? He leaned on the support and guidance he got from Beyond Strength Nutrition coaching.
@coach_ronytorres journey to the U.S. from Venezuela is a gripping story.
Sustainable Nutrition Change.
HYBRID ATHLETES NEED:
@coryhudsonjr shares his story of what his relationship with food was like before joining Beyond Strength nutrition coaching.
Look Monday right in the eyes and stand up with something heavy.
You’d need 40 fingers to count all of the wise and tuned in statements that @coryhudsonjr makes during the most recent episode of the Beyond Strength Show.
Portion sizes made easy.
Tomorrow we’re dropping a video that’ll make remembering portion sizes real easy for ya.
Want more power and increased recovery between lifting sessions?
How do you get the best possible training results?
Power + Strength + Stability + Mobility
It’s you with you.
What is hybrid athlete training?
What is hybrid athlete training?
It takes the full spectrum of exercises, intensities, and training methods to develop true, hybrid fitness (which is what we all need for full lives and longevity.)
⚠️ KETTLEBELL SWING FIX 🧰
Team squat or team deadlift?
Yeah, it’s Beyond Strength.
Stop over complicating things.
Creepy mustache Chris hopes that you have just the best possible weekend.

@mlgalata FINALLY got her new Nike Metcons for passing the Black Level.
Training this way is designed to keep you in the heart rate zones that train for improved cardiac output. That means it’s training your heart to pump out more blood with each beat. Your muscles get more oxygen and nutrients as they work. Low-intensity endurance work also increases your capillary density, which improves oxygen and nutrient transfer, and develops mitochondria. Mitochondria, as the Magic School Bus taught us all those years ago, are the powerhouse of the cell. The more mitochondria, the more energy working muscles produce over time. As a result, your aerobic capacity improves. Meaning that your aerobic energy system produces more energy for longer periods.
How do you train your legs?

And we all do it with the exercises that work for us right now.
That’s how we get stronger today, tomorrow, and for the rest of our lives.
#itsbeyondstrength
#livephysically
#hybridathlete
Sure, the core is able to flex forward and bend and twist, which all has its place, but controlling our torso is key.
Why?
Because when performing an exercise in the gym, whether that’s a deadlift, squat, or lunge, we must maintain position as we move; not only for safety’s sake, but to produce the most force. No core stability means we’re not in the best position to be successful. For example, rounding your back while deadlifting is not only less safe, but you will produce less force in that position.
These “walk” variations are a great way to… step up (😉)… your static plank game.
We use planks in a variety of places throughout our programs:
➡️ as part of a power circuit before our main lifts
➡️ during a mixed modal aerobic circuit (see last wednesdays post)
➡️ mixed into our assistance work after our main lifts
And no, not all of those at once…

What do you do after you finish the diet?
That’s the question. Because if you haven’t learned how to make nutrition sustainable, if haven’t built habits…
Chances are you’re going back to what you did before that wasn’t working.
Our 12-week coaching program answers the “then what?” Question.
You have the skills and the knowledge to navigate any environment and manage your nutrition in a way that’s sane, sensible, and doesn’t make you feel like you’re depriving yourself.

✅Power
✅Strength
✅Mobility
Along with massive amounts of endurance.
Problem is, most hybrid training plans are just based on bodybuilding-style lifting and running.
That won’t give you the true hybrid strength and endurance you’re after.
Train in the gym like an athlete that’s trying to get strong.
That’ll boost your hybrid performance far better than lifting like a bodybuilder.

Everything was good or bad. Black or white.
And it negatively affected his ability to form healthy habits.
There is a healthy way to eat that doesn’t label foods as good or bad. That doesn’t require you to judge yourself harshly for not eating only chicken and broccoli.
We’ll teach you that way to eat.

Not you against you.
Yes, we all want to be better than we were yesterday.
But we have to work with ourselves as much as we compete with ourselves.
And if we’re not totally onboard, we aren’t going anywhere.
Set standards that you want to beat.
But remember that beating them is an act of self-negotiation, not self-flagellation.
Happy Monday.

Well, if you’re a Beyond Strength member, you’re already doing it (in one form).
@todd_bumgardner and @chrisbeyondstrength break it down for you in the newest episode of The Beyond Strength Show. (On Spotify and YouTube soon.)
They also lay out example training weeks and talk about how to get back into running.
Keep those eyes peeled, folks.

You can’t just squat, bench, and deadlift. You have to do getups (like Tiff, Brad, and Jim in this photo). You need to lunge, twist, pull, etc.
You can’t just run. You need to bike, hike, row, etc.
You can’t just go slow, you also gotta go fast.
The inverse is also true.
Lasting fitness that drives you to perform today, and for the rest of your life is built on a foundation of all fitness qualities, starting with strength, mobility, and endurance.
You just need a smart training approach to develop your body the right way.

Most of us are set with level one (especially the first two habits).
If we’re confused at a lack of desired results, check in with level two and bring those findings back to level one.

For most folks, it’s much easier to get to the gym consistently and train hard than it is to be consistent with nutrition.
If that’s you, we’re here to help ya out.

Drop your nutrition question(s) in the comments section.
You could ask about protein, calories, meal composition, tracking, etc.
