You've got Initiate down. Ready to add load?
Six weeks of guided movement with barbells, kettlebells, and sandbags. Deadlifts, presses, get-ups, and about twenty more. The videos teach the movements. The #Integrate space is where you can ask Chip what to do when the weight feels wrong.
For people who'd rather drive their own training than be told every rep.
Each day lays out a template. Each video is an education in the movements that live inside that template. You can copy the template exactly while you're learning it, and most people should at first. But the point isn't to follow it forever. The point is to understand it well enough that you're building your own training by the end. This actively fights "just do what the app says." If that's what you want, you'll find it here, and then you'll find you don't need it anymore.
25 video lessons covering every movement in the program, and ideas on how to make each one harder or easier.
Six weeks laid out as a template. What you do with it is entirely up to you.
The Integrate (Loaded) Cheat Sheet, a one-page outline of the whole program with links back to each movement video when you need a reminder.
Access to the #Integrate space, where you can ask Chip about programming or specific movements and get an answer from him.
Two weeks of programming, three times through.
That sounds like less than it is. Each pass through, try playing with the next progression. The first time through, just get comfortable with the foundation. The second and third times, the same day on paper is a different day in your body. The template stays the same. The experience does not.
Nobody progresses at the same rate on everything. That's how it's supposed to go. When something feels relatively easy, move up. If it doesn't feel right, step back. Six weeks is a suggestion, not a deadline.
You've been through Initiate, you're comfortable moving, and you want to add load without handing your training over to a spreadsheet. Loaded and Unloaded are two paths out of Initiate. This is the one with a barbell in it.
If you want someone to tell you exactly what to lift and when for six weeks, this might not be your bag. The whole point is learning to make the calls yourself.
Learn from someone who's been questioning fitness dogma for 30+ years. Chip has trained with legends like Tommy Kono and Mel Siff, coached athletes internationally, and run a brick-and-mortar gym for nearly 20 years. Thirty years in, what he teaches isn't a program. It's the thinking behind one. He doesn't just hand you the workout; he hands you the reasoning, so you can eventually write your own.
FAQ section
A barbell or a kettlebell or something to load, like a sandbag, or a willing pooch. You don't need a full commercial rack, but it's welcome if you have one. Loaded assumes you can put an external weight in your hands. If you've only got bodyweight, try Integrate (Unloaded) instead.
As long or as short as you want. Each day is a template, not a fixed workout. Once you understand it, you decide how far to take any given movement, so the same day might be twenty minutes or an hour depending on what you're after.
Initiate is where the foundation gets built, and it's free, so do that first. From there you can go into Loaded or Unloaded, or both.
Unloaded is all bodyweight. Loaded adds external weight. Same template, same approach, different tools. You even land in the same #Integrate space, so plenty of people do both.
Forever. You buy it once, and it stays in your library.
Every movement starts from a foundation and builds from there. Start light, start where you are.
Integrate (Loaded) is also part of the All Access Pass. For $19/month you get this program, Integrate (Unloaded), and everything else BodyTribe offers, plus the community spaces.
