01 - INJURY
The shoulder, back, or knee flares up every time you push it
You go hard for two weeks, tweak something old, and spend the next month backing off. Progress never compounds.
02 - TIME
You can't be in the gym for 60-90 minutes aymore.
You need a routine that allows you to get in and get out of the gym, while getting stronger.
03 - PLAN
Random workouts, zero direction, nothing to show for it
Guessing in the gym is fine for a while. Then you realize you're not stronger, leaner, or more durable than last year.
04- THE MIRROR
You want to look like you lift — without getting hurt doing it
The goal isn't a powerlifting total. It's feeling good, moving well, and looking the part again. Sustainably.
01 : Weeks 1 -2
Bodyweight Foundation
Push-ups, pull-ups, squats, and lunges only. Build the foundation, establish baseline strength, and set benchmarks you'll beat later.
02: Weeks 3-4
Kettlebell Introduction
Build on your bodyweight base while introducing kettlebell movements to drive muscle hypertrophy and conditioning.
03: Weeks 5-6
Bodyweight PR Phase
Back to bodyweight only — but this time with a target. If you maxed out at 30 push-ups in Week 1, but can do 45 now then the numbers don't lie. You're stronger.
04: Weeks 7-8
Kettlebell Complexes
Full-body kettlebell complexes that test everything you've built — strength, conditioning, and mental toughness. This is the final exam.

$199
Originally $997
One-time payment · no subscription
Full 8-week program across 4 progressive phases
3 strength days per week + 2 optional recovery days
Optional low-intensity conditioning to drive recovery & body composition
Delivered in the ABC Trainerize app — train from anywhere
Designed by a Doctor of Physical Therapy & former World-Series Winning MLB Physical Therapist
The program runs on 3 main training days per week focused on strength, plus 2 optional mobility, recovery, and walking days. Each session is fully laid out for you — do what fits your schedule.
This program was designed by a Doctor of Physical Therapy specifically with common injury histories in mind. It leans on foundational movements and intentionally excludes all barbell lifts. That said, it's a general program — if you're in pain, just sustained an injury OR are currently recovering from an injury, get cleared by your physician or PT before starting. This program is NOT meant to replace or substitute for medical care, it is only for fitness training.
Many exercises are bodyweight only. Beyond that, all you need is a pull-up bar, two matching kettlebells, and a set of exercise bands. We recommend 16 kg for beginners and 24 kg for intermediate lifters. No barbell or squat rack required.
It's delivered through the ABC Trainerize app, so your full plan, exercise demos, and tracking live right on your phone. You'll get access within 24 hours of purchasing the program.
No. It's a one-time payment of $199 for the complete 8-week program — no recurring billing.
You'll have a genuinely strong, durable foundation — bodyweight mastery, kettlebell strength, and the conditioning to keep building. If you want ongoing coaching, you can reach out to Jeff directly.
