Ideally, you would have access to equipment that you would find in the gym, such as a smith machine, squat rack, a cable station or tower, dumbbells, and barbells.

We have included modifications for each exercise using dumbbells for those of you that don't have access to a gym, or in case your gym does not have a particular piece of equipment. Keep in mind that since this is a progressive weight training program (you will be increasing your weight loads), you will want to have access (or eventually have access) to a full set of dumbbells (10-30 lb).

You will also want to purchase a booty band, which we use quite a bit in the workouts, but is optional. A stability ball for the home workouts (to use as a bench and for lower body exercises) is not required, but helpful to have.

We only open enrollment for Lean Physique Membership for 3-4 times a year. The day you sign up is the day you will be drafted each consecutive month on a monthly basis until you cancel. 

All the workouts, nutrition coaching lessons, and all other content can be accessed through a mobile-friendly app. You will have your own portal in our Lean Physique membership! We keep all the content in one place so you never have to dig through emails or your downloads.

We update the workouts every 3-4 months. This is because we want you practicing the same lifts, while increasing your weight loads and working on perfecting your form. We have found that focusing on the tried-and-true exercises, and focusing on increasing the intensity over time builds more lean muscle mass than a workout program that is continuously changing. 

Yes, these workouts can be adjusted for all fitness levels. If you are a beginner, we suggest you do the dumbbell version of the exercises to get started, so you can practice the exercises with a lighter weight load and learn proper lifting technique. You will be able to easily modify this workout program to suit where you are right now-you can adjust the weight loads, reps, sets; and even workout frequency (doing 3 days a week instead of 4, for example). We walk you through how to do the workouts and make adjustments (sets, reps, rest periods, etc) for all fitness levels. We are happy to help you make personal adjustments to the workouts to suit your current fitness level. 

We totally understand your concern about this, as it is a common one. Most of the time when women believe they look bulky, it is generally because of an excess in fat mass, not an excess of muscle mass. Besides, it really is difficult for most women to build muscle mass, let alone build too much of it. I have been a personal trainer for 13 years, and have spent a lot of time researching this very subject. Weight training is so important for women’s health-and can help build beautiful shape to a woman’s body with lean muscle mass.

Yes! You are welcome to reach out to us and we can help you with any modifications you need. 

We highly recommend that you commit to Lean Physique only, and not participate in other exercise or workout programs for the best results. Too much cardiovascular and HIIT training can actually break down muscle tissue. So, if you want to build a rounder, more shapely booty, skipping or cutting back on cardio can be helpful with maintaining and building more muscle mass!

We highly recommend not doing a lot of cardio or HIIT training while doing Lean Physique for the best results. You can leisurely walk as much as you like, but if you are doing excessive cardio, it WILL take away from your results. We do think supplementing with a low-intensity Yoga or Pilates class or training once or twice a week is totally fine and can be beneficial for improving flexibility and range of motion. But, if you are doing tons of cardio or overtraining in general, please be aware of the consequences of not giving the body adequate time to rest and recover. Proper recovery is so important for the best results (just as important if not more than the workout itself), so more exercise isn’t exactly better. The occasional bike ride or group fitness class won’t be a big deal; but by prioritizing Lean Physique Workout Program 3-5 days a week; we can deliver you the best results.

We totally understand, and it is totally ok if you are not quite ready to make the switch to keto. The good news is that we have six lessons on basic nutrition skills that will help to get the ball rolling on body re-composition; and help prepare you to shift to a ketogenic lifestyle.

This membership is totally self-paced, so you can make the shift when it feels right for you! I also want to mention here that you do not necessarily need to do keto to be successful. Even just simply decreasing carbohydrates, along with eating more whole foods and less processed foods; can help you improve digestion, decrease carb cravings, and help you lose body fat.

I totally understand this. The first time I tried keto, it ended in disaster! Because back then, I didn’t know what I do now. I can assure you that my method is different. My “transition to keto” method will increase the likelihood that you stay the course, make it a sustainable lifestyle, while minimizing or avoiding keto flu symptoms. 

Yes! On a keto diet, you make the shift from using carbohydrates as fuel, to using fat (dietary fat you consume, as well as stored body fat) as fuel. In addition, some types of exercise work better on a keto diet than others. And, even if you engage in exercise that is better fueled by carbs, you could still do a low-carb or keto diet; and add some strategic carb-ups in, to better fuel your workouts (which we teach inside the Lean Physique membership). 

Aerobic exercise such as Long-distance running/cycling/traditional weight training is the best exercise to pair with the Keto Diet; as endurance athletes can be fueled exclusively with fat. Aerobic exercise is a steady out-put of energy without any bursts of intense exercise. Lean Physique falls under this category, making it a great choice to be fueled by fat.

Aerobic exercise such as HIIT, Metabolic Conditioning, or CrossFit. If you fall into this category, then it will likely take being a little strategic with carb intake and timing. With anaerobic exercise, generally there is short bursts of intensity followed by rest. Anaerobic athletes may need some glycogen or glucose (aka carbs) in order to be successful. This is where carb-ups come in-which we teach inside the Lean Physique membership. 

As long as you are a member!
