What weights should I use?

How difficult are the workouts?
The workouts are designed to be adaptable for all fitness levels and abilities. You can adjust the intensity, weight, or exercise variation based on your current strength, experience, and available equipment.
Do I have to do the warmup and cool down?
It is always recommended to ensure your muscles are warmed up before a sesh and that you give them time to wind down afterwards. If you are already warmed up, go ahead and hit the "Skip Warm Up" button at the bottom of the player screen when you start the video.
Once the cool down starts, you can end your session - the workout will still be marked as complete.
What Are Stack-On Workouts?
Stack-on workouts are short add-on videos you can combine with your main session to target specific muscle groups or extend your workout.
After completing a workout, the app may also suggest stack-ons based on your session.
📝 Note: Workouts that are 15 minutes or less do not include a warm up or cool down
