Customized help

We offer multiple options for you to receive the personalized plan that you need.

Personal plan:

Our Personal Plans (previously called our Power Plan and Bootcamp Plan) include an online consultation, evaluation and plan every month (Bootcamp plan/monthly update) or every three months (Power plan/3 month update). Receive guidance on exercises and recipes to incorporate. We will even create new workouts specifically for you, if needed. This plan is billed on a monthly or yearly basis and you will automatically be enrolled in recurring payments. For individuals paying with a check, we ask you to consider purchasing 6 to 12 months at a time.

To create a personalized program, you will complete a comprehensive assessment, consult with us via Skype/FaceTime/Phone for 15-20 minutes, and then we'll make your personalized plan. We'll create a custom page with a personalized workout and customized selections of exercises, recipes, and stress reduction advice, alongside a written summary of our recommendations. See a sample of a personal plan here.

You may cancel at any time and we will pro-rate your last month's membership fees to the date you decide to cancel.

Consultations:

Get one-on-one help, with a private online or in-person consultation with Alexander Tressor. We recommend using FaceTime or Skype, but also provide consultations over the phone. Based on the consultation, we will provide a basic plan outlining recommendations for exercise, nutrition, and stress reduction.

How does it work?

Choose the following to create your workouts:
(1) What you want to workout (legs, torso, arms, cardio)
(2) How long (5, 10, 15 or 20 minutes)
(3) How to workout (lying down, sitting or standing)
And your workout will be generated in seconds! You can save and download workouts for future and offline use.

With the ability to rate each exercise, you have control over what exercises are selected for your workouts. If you don’t like a particular exercise, set the rating to 0, and it will be hidden from future workouts!

The app also includes a series of workouts to improve your coordination and even expand your movement vocabulary.

Useful Tips

You are in control! Remember, you can pause, restart, save or exit any workout at any time. If you are just beginning and are unsure how to do an exercise, watch the first set and then try to mimic the movement. If you want to complete the whole workout length, simply restart the workout.

Ratings (more below) give you the power to influence the exercise choices in the workout… and if you are unhappy with the exercise selections, simply build a new workout!

Selecting your workout: Pick the body regions you need to work on. For overall conditioning, select ALL regions (Legs, Torso, Arms, Cardio).

Choosing the appropriate length of workout: Start gradually. We recommend starting at 5 minutes if you are unsure, and building up from there.

How many sets are in each workout?

5 minutes — 2 sets; 10 minutes — 4 sets; 15 minutes — 3 (double length) sets; 20 minutes — 4 (double length) sets

How do I repeat workouts? Simply tap “Save workout”, and the workout can be repeated as many times as you want. Find them by tapping “Saved workouts” from the main menu.

Why should I rate the exercises? Your ratings are used in selecting the exercises that are assembled into your workouts. If you set the rating to 0, the exercise will not be used. If the rating is 5, it will show up 5 time more often than an exercise with a rating of 1. This gives you more control over your workouts!

What if I set a rating to 0 and want that exercise to appear again? From the main menu screen, select “View all exercises” at the bottom. The exercises in red are those with ratings of 0. Simply find the exercise you’d like to change the rating on, tap on the exercise, and select a new rating.

Should I do the same workout every day? Our recommendation is to alternate between at least 2 different workouts with different focuses. The app was designed to give you thousands of variations of different workouts using our exercise library, so you never need to be bored with your workout routine.

How do I workout lying down? You could (1) connect your device to a larger monitor or TV, (2) hold the device in your hand (mainly if you are using an iPhone), or (3) prop your iPhone or iPad on a table or pillow next to you.

What does it mean to “download” the workout? If you download the workout, the exercises used in that particular workout will be saved to your device. This means that you do not need an internet connection to play a downloaded workout. This is particularly useful if you are traveling or want to limit your cellular data usage.

How large is a downloaded workout? An average workout is approximately 250MB. This does not change with the length of the workout.
