Goals

WorkoutSmart has several different types of goals and we are adding more all of the time.  Each goal has programs with unique characteristics and a specific focus.

Build Strength

The Strength and Power Series Workouts follow a wave periodization model going from Hypertrophy to Max Strength and Power Phases over the length of the Training Schedule you choose. As a whole, the rep ranges are slightly higher (6-12) in the early phases of the program allowing for a greater emphasis on Conditioning and Hypertrophy through cellular volume increases. You will be taken into Max Strength phases as well with reps in the 1-4 range as you near the end of your training cycle.

Get Lean

The Get Lean Workout Series offers higher reps, lighter weights, and really puts the emphasis on conditioning your muscles. This is a great workout to facilitate weight loss, tone and shape your muscles, increase muscular endurance and burn as many calories as possible doing so!

Sport Specific

Train like a pro for your sport! WorkoutSmart sport specific programs are created to help you achieve maximum performance in your sport including an emphasis on in-season and off-season programs.

Optimal Fitness

The Optimal Fitness Workout Series will focus on giving you an optimal amount of training to get you in shape and keep you in shape. Each phase of your program prepares you to move safely to the next level of training. Not too heavy, and not too light. Just the right amount of training to help you bring health and fitness into your life.

Bodybuilding

The Classic Bodybuilding Workout Series follow a wave periodization model transitioning you through Muscular Endurance (15+ reps, up to 60%), Hypertrophy (8-12 reps, 60-75%) and Base Strength Phases (4-8 reps, 70-85%).  In this series, most of the training time will be spent in the Hypertrophy Phase. You will be using large compound movements such as the Squat, Bench, and Deadlift along with a multitude of various assistive movements to create size and shape for your muscles.

Programs for Life

The Programs for Life Workout Series emphasizes movements that create body awareness, balance, core stability and strength endurance. Anyone can benefit from these programs but they are especially effective for those that seek overall health and pain-free movement. These programs were built not to maximize your power output but to create stability and movement skill in your everyday life.
