What equipment do I need?

MINIMALIST uses dumbbells, a bench/box, and pull-up bar, or see the bodyweight-only workshop for alternatives.

The other tracks use free weights such as barbells/plates, DBs, KBs, etc. and a rower, bike, or similar alternative.

Substitution info is provided.

PUMP LIFT also includes machine options found at conventional gyms.

How many days per week do I have to train?

Within Persist, you can train on your schedule with a variety of options ranging from 3-5 days per week, plus optional active recovery work.

You can follow the programs on your timeline - and the 3 day tracks are full body, so if you have an inconsistent schedule you don't have to worry about keeping up with an upper/lower training split.

How long are the workouts?

60 minutes or less for PILLARS or MINIMALIST, 60-75 minutes typically for PERFORM or PUMP. Each workout includes Short on Time notes if you need to get it in quicker.

Persist also comes with the PUMP 40 workshop for 40-minute muscle-building sessions.

Which Persist Track should I start with?

Persist includes 4 ongoing tracks (PUMP LIFT, PUMP CONDITION, MINIMALIST, and PERFORM). Most athletes start with PUMP LIFT 3 days per week, or the FBB 101 Workshop if you're a beginner.

You can take a quick quiz in the app to find your starting place, or schedule a complimentary onboarding call to eliminate any guesswork.

What about nutrition?

Persist includes a bonus Nutrition Resource Library to teach you sustainable ways to fuel your training. No fad diets – our approach works with any eating style and is based on quantity, quality, and protein. You’ll also receive the Practical Protein Ebook for recipes and tips for getting more of the most important macro.

Can I train offline?

Yes! In addition to the app, you’ll receive a weekly pdf of training if you need to work out away from online access, or prefer not to have your phone with you.

Is there an app, or how do I access the workouts?

Yes! You'll get access to our native app for iOS and Android after signup, and it's also viewable from a web browser.
