15-Day Summer Shape Up

Get a jump start on your health and well-being with this 15-day Summer Shape-up Program. This program will help you increase lean muscle mass, decrease fat mass and improve your mental well-being, all while using your body weight.

Metabolic Conditioning (MetCon)

These workouts challenge the entire body and engage the muscular and cardiorespiratory systems. This high-intensity training will allow your body to continue to burn calories even after your activity has ended. This program includes two forms of MetCon workouts: As Many Rounds as Possible (AMRAP) and Every Minute on the Minute (EMOM). For AMRAP workouts, complete as many rounds of the workout as possible in a given amount of time. 

Walking

The benefits of walking are numerous, from burning calories to managing stress. High-intensity exercise is a stressor; not all exercise needs to be intense to be beneficial. Walking for 45-60 minutes six days per week increases your physical-activity level while also enhancing your cardiorespiratory health and mental well-being.

Active Recovery

Rather than a sedentary rest day, this program incorporates an active recovery day. You can choose your activity—be sure it’s low-impact, such as yoga, swimming, or stretching. Every seventh day of the program is an active recovery day.
