14-Day Workout Program Details

1. Gym Equipment Needed:

A Set of DumbbellsMost of the daily workouts require a set of dumbbells. Each weight training workout will have a recommended dumbbell weight, usually between 8-20 pounds. You want a weight heavy enough that your last few reps are a struggle, but you are still able to complete the workout with good form.

Optional Exercise Equipment: 

Mini Loop Resistance Band. You can add a resistance band to the leg exercises to increase the intensity. These are the mini loop resistance bands I have (DISCOUNT CODE: NML).

Chair, Bench or Exercise Ball (super helpful when it comes to making beginner and pregnancy modifications).

Kettlebell. Option to use a kettlebell or substitute one heavy dumbbell.

2. Time Requirement: 

Varies from 25-minute workouts to 35-minute workouts, 5-6 days per week.

You can always take more rest days as needed. And scale back to 3-4 days a week, if choosing 3-4 workouts I suggest:

  • One Leg Workout
  • One Arm Workout
  • One-Two Full Body Workouts

3. Fitness Level:

Intermediate to advanced, with modifications offered for all fitness levels in the daily workout videos.

I filmed this program in my second trimester, so pregnancy modifications are offered within each workout as well.

This Workout Plan is for Anyone Looking to:

  • Burn calories and build muscle at home or at the gym
  • Improve athletic and cardio performance

  1. Is there a way to get a print out version of your YouTube work outs? I love your workouts and I do them at the gym so it’s hard to do watch a video.

    • Hi Donna! Yes, typically the daily workouts (linked in the calendar) are also published here on our website as well…this is the first challenge where the videos just lived on YouTube. BUT we always post the full workout details (printable or follow along style) either in the daily workout blog post or in this case in the YouTube video description. I hope that helps! -Lindsey
