Not a big overhaul - but a few important updates to take forward:
🚨 What stays the same!
The 4 domains remain - aerobic, strength, stretching, and BAM (balance, agility and multitasking)
The weekly target is unchanged
Moderate to vigorous intensity is still the key message - this is where results really build
12 Strength - clearer intent on load!

Now framed as fewer reps 'to fatigue'
In practice, that often means heavier weights, fewer reps, progressed safely and consistently. This is something our clients have been pushing towards for the last few months.
Balance - more functional focus
We love the new BAM wording
Turning is now named a brilliant, real-world training target
Balance needs to be appropriately challenging to drive change - and regularly
Support matters
More emphasis on being strategic - combining training so it's achievable, something we frequently bang on about!
And community helps consistency and motivation
Want help hitting your weekly dose!
