THE YEAR OF THE ENGINE

The Year of the Engine is a conditioning program for the unique needs of functional fitness.  Build a huge aerobic engine, create repeatable anaerobic power, and develop fast recovery from very intense bursts.  You’ll also master pacing at any intensity. With this new capacity, you’ll be in control of every workout.

Here’s How It Works: The Year of the Engine includes over 25 different training day frameworks, in 12 progressively challenging stages.  Each stage introduces a new stimulus, so as you progress through the program, you develop your entire spectrum of muscle fibers.

Athletes can message us right in the app, anytime. Ask questions, share feedback, even include photos or video if needed.   We can see your data too, so collaboration is straightforward.

Data makes the difference

Conveniently log your results in the app after every training session. Track and analyze your progress in a specific stimulus or compare them for unmatched level of clarity. For example, track the progress of your oxidative and glycolytic systems independently.   

Daily data collection, monthly time trials, and quarterly testing create a deep data pool, resulting in a positive feedback loop to enhance your capacity.

Review your daily summaries or do a deeper dive into a specific stimulus.  Use this information in other aspects of your training, such as MetCon selection and pacing strategies.
