THIS IS JUST A GLIMPSE BEFORE LAUNCH!  PLEASE DO NOT SHARE WITHOUT OUR CONSENT.  WE STILL NEED TO SHOOT THE PROMO VIDEOS. ROUTINE WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR PARTICIPANTS ONLY. EXERCISE LISTS ARE INTENTIONALLY BLURRED.

We wanted to create a series of routines requiring less equipment so they can be performed at home or outside of the gym.   Having a wide variety of movements were important to keep participants enthusiastic.  Lastly we wanted to focus on substance, workouts that stood out from many of those cookie cutter routines.    

Introducing The Force 50!

7 uniquely structured HIIT circuits. While all routines were designed for maximal caloric burn, each focuses on a specific fitness category.  For example workout "Athena" focuses on building a strength foundation while "Hermes" emphasizes speed and power. Workout "Themis" integrates strength combined with balance.  

All Levels of Fitness - Coach Guidance Suggested

There is a vast variety of movements in this collection that even some seasoned athletes may find a few difficult to perform.  Therefore we highly suggest this program is guided by a qualified EfitX Coach.  Coaches will have the ability to modify any exercise to make them more suitable or optimized for each participant.
