THE SYSTEM. NO COACH REQUIRED.
The same programming my in-person and online clients run — designed so you can execute it entirely on your own. No coach required. Just the system, the structure, and the work.
The reason most people abandon programs isn't lack of motivation — it's lack of structure. Every 40X0 program is built with intention. Every phase, every rep, every tempo prescription has a purpose. You'll always know what you're doing and why.
Train on Your Own
"I trained with AJ for three years and was very pleased with his friendly approach, personalized plans (which clearly reflected his understanding of my goals), and easy-to-follow guidance on performing exercises and maintaining proper form. In addition, he was always able to find alternative exercises whenever I had an issue with a muscle or pose."

COMMON QUESTIONS
FAQ
-
It depends on your training age — how long you've been consistently following a structured strength program. Less than 1 year → Linear. 1-2 years → Undulated. 2+ years → Undulated Integrated. When in doubt go one level down — the program that challenges you appropriately will always outperform the one that overwhelms you.
-
Same program, different schedule. The 4x/week version runs 12 weeks, the 3x/week version runs 16 weeks to complete the same volume with more recovery time between sessions. Choose based on how many days per week you can consistently commit to training.
-
The programs are designed to be self-directed. Every exercise includes detailed coaching notes and KILO-certified video demonstrations so you know exactly what to do and how to do it. You won't need a coach to execute — but you do need to be willing to follow the program as written.
-
Once you purchase through TrainHeroic your program access doesn't expire. You can reference it, repeat it, or use it as a baseline for future training.
-
Because programs are delivered digitally and provide instant access all sales are final. Please review the program descriptions carefully before purchasing and reach out with any questions beforehand.
