ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Whether your schedule is packed or you’re just looking for a quick, effective way to move, this program delivers. The 3-Day Full Body Program is built to maximize every minute increasing strength, enhancing mobility, shredding body fat, and leaving you energized, athletic, and strong in just 30–40 minutes a session. Each workout has its own focus: Day 1 builds your strength foundation with classic compound lifts, Day 2 sharpens muscle control and balance through tempo and unilateral work, & Day 3 blends heavy lifts with explosive movements for raw power and athleticism.  Includes 3 strategic progressions over 6 weeks to keep you improving without plateaus.

🛠️ PROGRAM STRUCTURE
Day 1. Full Body, Strength Base -
Start with dynamic mobility to unlock hips, shoulders, and spine. Move into foundational compound lifts like squats, presses, and rows for total-body strength. Add targeted arm and core work before finishing with short, high-intensity intervals to boost conditioning.

Day 2. Full Body, Power & Control - Begin with mobility and activation to prime stability. Tempo-based lifts and unilateral exercises challenge balance, control, and strength. Upper/lower push-pull supersets hit every major muscle group. End with fast-paced intervals for a metabolic punch.

Day 3. Full Body Athletic Power - Kick off with activation drills, then go heavy on deadlifts and pair them with explosive jumps to build raw power. Follow with chest and back supersets, sprinkle in accessory work for shoulders and arms, and wrap with moderate-length cardio intervals to cap off the week.

Real Results

“Real results are built with Micro-Momentum. The idea that big, sustainable progress comes from the accumulation of small, manageable actions done consistently over time. It’s not about giant leaps. It’s about stacking small wins every single day. One workout, one healthy meal, one good night’s sleep… they add up. Focus on the little things consistently, and you’ll build real, lasting results that go far beyond quick fixes.” — Don Saladino
