Both programs are available to you through my platform on the members area section after you have purchased your subscription.  They will appear on your dashboard and you can switch between tracks or mix and match days from each. You can even send the program to yourself via email.

Yes, the reason I've done it this way is so you can build a strong foundation and then continue to progress month by month. There's no lock-in on the monthly plan, but I'd suggest giving yourself at least 12 weeks to trust the process and see the results. The 3-monthly plan is there if you'd rather create some accountability, commit up front and save a little. Each program builds on itself each month, and you can ask questions any time and receive continuous support from myself and my team.

Yes! It’s imperative to me that anyone in the world can access this program.

You can do all the weights based programming at home if you have access to everything below.

A selection of dumbbells and/or kettlebells

A barbell & plates

A supension trainer/rings

Some resistance bands (long and short) 

A bench, preferably with an incline option

A pull-up bar 

At least one piece of cardio equipment or a place to run outside

A swissball

A dead ball

If you train in a commercial gym, you can absolutely swap some exercises for machine-based ones, like ring rows for seated rows, pull-ups for lat pull-downs, or banded hamstring curls for lying or seated hamstring curls. Read the education first so you know what each exercise is aiming for and can make educated switches.

Strength takes time, so I'd encourage you to give it a genuine go (I suggest at least 12 weeks). You can cancel the monthly plan any time and keep your access until the end of the month you've paid for. If you join the 3-monthly plan and change your mind within the first 14 days, email support@tractionwithactionalexa.com and I'll refund everything except your first month. Full details are in the terms and conditions.

To cancel your subscription, just email support@tractionwithactionalexa.com. You'll keep access until the end of your current payment period, after which your plans and support will finish.

Yes. The programs have been designed with mid-life bodies in mind and, while challenging, are suitable for beginners as long as you're comfortable following a written workout along with demo videos, and asking questions if you're not sure. Newbies will learn how to develop strength from the ground up and build a solid foundation, and you can regress any exercise at any time by lowering the load. Seasoned lifters and coaches will have the opportunity to hone their technique, pad out their repertoire, explore alternative ways of structuring sessions and potentially learn some new tricks to improve the skills and strength they and their clients already have.

No, each month is different. Each program builds on itself month by month through progressive overload, which might mean more weight, a change in exercise selection, a bigger range of motion, or the introduction of tempo training and/or partial reps. Within each month the exercises stay the same, so you can master them before moving on. You'll also be able to update your meal plan depending on your results. I want this platform to be all about continued education.

Choose Form & Function if you want 3 weights-only days per week with no prescribed cardio. Choose Build & Burn if you want 5 days that add structured energy system work. Both programs will appear on your dashboard so you can change between them or mix and match if you want to. 

Not at all. In fact, sometimes I think that men should train more like women! The programs are designed with mid-life bodies in mind, and while some of the education is very specific to peri-menopause, men are very welcome - just skip through the parts that don't apply to you. 

If you're managing an injury or a health condition, please check with your doctor or physio before you start. You can regress any exercise at any time by lowering the load, and where relevant I've included education on what to watch for. If in doubt, send me a cheeky DM and I can give you some 1:1 advice.

Most sessions are between 45-60 minutes. I have also tried to take into consideration ease of set-up for each day in terms of exercise selection.
