THE ULTIMATE FITNESS ADVENTURE
UFC 90 is the ULTIMATE adventure in fitness. Unlike most fitness challenges, UFC 90 will provide you with EVERYTHING you need to crush your goals including strength training, cardio, meal plans designed by registered dietitians, and a community to help you stay on track. Best of all, you will be able to access everything right from your phone!
All workouts were designed by our very own Director of Programs Tony Reynolds. Not only are they creative and fun, but they are all progressive in nature so their intensity and volume build from week to week. This progressive overload will help keep you challenged, motivated, and moving in the right direction.
WHAT TO EXPECT
UFC 90 is a 12-week challenge consisting of three phases:
BASECAMP
Basecamp consists of 20 workouts spread over the first 4 weeks. Each week you will have access to 3 strength training workouts and 2 cardio workouts. There is a slight increase in intensity week to week as you build your general fitness.
THE CLIMB
There is a total of 24 progressive workouts in this phase with 3 strength training and 3 cardio workouts per week. The ultimate goal of this phase is to improve cardiovascular fitness so expect some elevated heart rates as you work out.
THE SUMMIT
The Summit is the icing on the cake! This phase is also 4 weeks long but consists of 28 workouts including 4 strength training sessions and 3 cardio sessions each week. Like the other phases, intensity increases week to week throughout this phase.
