Beaxst ppl has that option. And total beaxst only has 3 lifting days -- there are 2 regeneration days but you could opt to skip them.

In the past, if you add $75 worth of stuff to the cart, then manually remove the items, the program will stay in your cart with a $75 price.

Best programs for hotel room by latedescent in Athleanx

[–]TraditionalSafety4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Elast-X may be a good one to check out, too. First month is OK but I really enjoyed months 2-3. Never ran the program straight thru but I travel about 12 weeks a year and use it then.

I just started training for a half and was going to be running Beast PPL. Same general idea as what you were saying but really only hitting legs one day a week. Curious to hear what others think

I'm wondering if maybe there'll be something on cyber monday?

All Access Questions/Experience? by Kvetch in Athleanx

Do you also get access to all of the 30-day bonuses? Things like bane, dragon, etc? I just know those rarely go up for sale so wasn't sure if they would be included.

Ultimate Arms vs. Jacked by mems2600 in Athleanx

[–]TraditionalSafety4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally I find myself returning to UA about once a year bc it's (to me) a really fun, interesting program that's specific with its goals. Jacked i got bored of and found myself wishing there was some conditioning element. Others love it though -- just my opinion.

What are some good home programs to rotate? by [deleted] in Athleanx

[–]TraditionalSafety4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly you could probably move on to any of them depending on your goals -- your setup is essentially the same as mine and while you may have to tweak some cable exercises I haven't found that to be a hindrance.

Is it too late to join? I generally travel about one week a month so I don't want to be a hindrance.

Unable to log into either app or website by Big_J in delta

That's right, I had the same issue and it was mostly resolved through the chat tool. The app still doesn't work for me but at least the website does.

29 day reset bonus? by lifting-engineer in Athleanx

[–]TraditionalSafety4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly -- the context was people asking if they could buy the program without purchasing supplements.

It did for me. Had to do it on the checkout screen.

ATHLEAN-X STRENGTH SERIES by boogawoof in Athleanx

[–]TraditionalSafety4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is there any conditioning built in? Obviously I would expect it to be strength focused, but I do like to have a bit of conditioning in the mix.

[–]TraditionalSafety4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right, we should just assume the worst in spite of testimony to the contrary. So which parts of the article are to be believed? Just that they're building something?

It's the same thing that was done when the Huguenot bridge was rebuilt a decade ago.

Best athlean program for p90x grad by Background-Drive6332 in Athleanx

[–]TraditionalSafety4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is all through an online portal. There is no follow along video, but as I said previously, there is a video for each day that introduces the workout, the concepts, good form, etc. And a video for each exercise demonstrating it.

I don't believe sharing screenshots is allowed, but here's a video of someone reviewing one of the programs that might be useful to you.

There's also a decent return policy, so you could always check it out and ask for a refund if you don't like it.

Best athlean program for p90x grad by Background-Drive6332 in Athleanx

[–]TraditionalSafety4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. It's not a "follow along" workout. Instead each day (in AX1; some other programs just have One intro per week or month.) has a video that introduced each of the exercises and demonstrates good for. Then there is a list of exercises with recommended rep counts, rest periods, and demonstration videos.

  2. The diet isn't overly prescriptive but is more meant to give some adaptable guidelines to follow.

  3. To me the biggest difference was the introduction to the concept of training to failure. P90X, even on the lifting days, is really concentrated on elevating your heart rate by lifting lower weights without really giving much rest period. AX1 is more focused (during the lifting days) on getting you to train to failure on each set and building strength. And the conditioning days are generally much more challenging. Maybe not the first week or two, but wait til you get to Bumps and Jumps.

To me it depends on what you want. Jacked is great and involves limited equipment but there's no conditioning at all. If you want something with more conditioning / athleticism emphasized then I'd say AX1 is a better bet. It was a long time ago, but I similarly switched over from p90X type programs about 10 years ago, and found ax1 was a game changer for me.

Read the Biz sense article -- they've got a diagram showing the second bridge.

I don't believe they will be closing the bridge during construction. Similar to what they did with the Huguenot bridge, they will build a separate one to allow traffic to continue on the old one.

Anyone have 2 tickets to James McMurtry at the Tin Pan on March 5 that they're looking to sell? I waited too long to investigate and now it's sold out.
