I can tell you the best fitness plan for anyone to follow is one you take part in on a regular basis. Thats one of the things that people search for along with best fitness apps or leggings on search engines. The problem with this search is it doesnt address the main issues….We don’t have time and after 40 we find it hard to recover from workouts that are designed for someone in their 20’s. We have to much going on and to try and really fit in getting ready… going to the gym… working out… then the drive to work or home, all of that takes hours and no-one has that time anymore. The other major issue we have is we think can handle more than we should which leads to at best constant muscle soreness and injuries due to either over training or flexibility (because most of us over 40 don’t have great flexibility-thats just reality and we don’t work on it daily) issue that leads to an injury. The other factor that you don’t see right away is  our bodies can only take so much constant pounding…. Think about that for a min the fitness plan that is the best for say an Olympic athlete or other high level fitness competition level programs may be the best for someone who has 4 hours a day but it might not be the best for you right now.
We need something that is slightly challenging, addresses all of the issues that someone with a busy life would see and something that I can get done in a short amount of time at home. Whats the best plan for you it’s the plan that you can accomplish and do daily.

If you agree with that and it hits home now we can have a conversation about fitness that someone over 40 is ready for or what I created called- “3 Songs Strong”.

 

What’s the biggest thing stopping people from working out regularly? Is it money, time or ability to sustain? Education (what program do I follow)?

The conclusion I came to was that it always boils down to TIME. No matter how you cut it time is the biggest hurdle we have to cross at our age. That is the basis behind the creation of “3 Songs Strong”. I had to create a program that was 1. Physically doable (daily) and walked that line of challenging. 2. It had to be short enough for people to fit it in daily and deliver results we need. “3 Songs Strong” was created.

 

In my eyes if you can resonate with being over 40 and having a hard time finding the time to exercise then what I have said will ring true and you are all in. If you are looking for more of a challenge, more of a competition and have the daily time then I can tell you now this isn’t the program for you save your time and money. This program is designed to be progressive and meant to be done for the long haul not start and stop like most other programs that are unsustainable for the long term.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1517879204128{padding-top: 10% !important;background-color: #1e73be !important;}”][vc_column css_animation=”fadeInUp” css=”.vc_custom_1521143952401{background-color: #e87117 !important;border-radius: 1px !important;}”][vc_custom_heading text=”Why This Program?” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:38|text_align:center|color:%23262626|line_height:45px” use_theme_fonts=”yes” el_class=”font_weight_700″ css=”.vc_custom_1521143987092{background-color: #ef7409 !important;}”][vc_column_text]

You don’t have 1-3 hours a day to train….Neither do I.

Music

How simple… We all listen to music when we workout why not use it to our advantage and have it be out clock without looking at a clock….

We offer 2 plans, any more than that and you would get to confused and just start clicking and not really get what you want. I keep it simple so you can move forward.

I first met this amazing athlete when she was plagued by a herniated disc and wasn't able to train for the past 6 weeks. We started the rehab path and I got her back into complete physical ability in all ranges of motion. Then it was game on and I programmed her strength and conditioning for the following yearsssss...That led us to the CrossFit Games 2 times. It should have been a third trip but we missed by 1 rep...It wasn't for lack of heart, sometimes that's the way it goes. To perform at that level takes a committed athlete and for the coach it takes a depth of knowledge and understanding of proper implementation that takes years as in many to develop. To make it to this level of competence for a coach or athlete is something very few have been able to be blessed to have accomplished. 

As a product of Josh's' training and a member of the Exercise Science community, I endorse the work Josh is delivering in this program.

From 2011-2013 Josh designed my workouts in order for me to participate in CrossFit competitively. During this time, I saw results that I never thought to be possible for an individual of my size and training background (i.e., strength, endurance, body fat…). The time I spent being trained by Josh was perhaps the most efficient in terms of duration (most bang for your buck), which was necessary for someone having a graduate student work load.

I have since graduated and become a full-time professor in Exercise Science and truly believe that one of the most important aspects to exercise programming and adherence is efficiency.

Currently my lab examines the benefits of time-efficient short duration exercise programs, which is a programming style that Josh has perfected. If your looking to improve your overall quality of life take advantage of Josh’s exercise programming and the years of knowledge he draws from to create such an efficient design.

I have been involved in fitness my whole life but have recently found that it has been harder and harder for me to over the past few years, I have done online challenge groups and have consulted nutrition coaches in an effort to get me motivated to reach my goal of losing fat and building lean muscle.  While I was able to achieve certain results, I did so only for short periods of time as those programs weren’t realistic nor something I could sustain.  Either the workouts were too long and hard or the diets too strict to maintain long term. However, in the short time I have been working with Josh, I have lost those extra pounds I have been carrying for a while and have converted that loss into lean muscle gain.

This program is different from all the others in it takes out all the fluff.  It is perfect for my busy lifestyle. Although I have only been on this program for 6 weeks, I have found the nutrition component very satisfying and sustainable as well. 

Never have I seen faster results in my 20+ years of exercising than I have throughout this past year. I have tried every type of workout there is and even had a personal trainer for a while.. No matter what I did I always seemed to be fighting an uphill battle until I found this program. Every other program was just not something that would either keep my interest or give me the results I was looking for. That is until I found this program. When I first discussed this with Josh I didn't really believe it was a possibility that workouts are only 3 Songs  (or approx. 9 min.) a day. This program and diet plan has transformed my body almost unbelievably....People who see me regularly won't stop asking me what I am doing - its really unbelievable. My friends can't believe I only train 9 minutes a day and look like I do......I can't believe it....I was always told I need to train 1 hour a day and make sure you include cardio in there.... No way.... I literally set my clock to 9 min and when that alarm goes off I am done for the day....So productive... and to be honest with you I really don't have much more time than that...I would highly recommend anyone who is interested in training smarter and being able to finally feel fit to follow this program. You can't lose...I am hooked for life, it is that addicting.
