The schedule

Follow the workout order and timing in the program’s notes.

How it works

The program’s own rules, as Catalyst runs them.

Alternate the two home workouts on days you choose. Treat the approximate rep counts as targets and choose resistance that leaves the required reps in reserve with good form. Zero reps in reserve means stop at your form limit; never force a painful rep. Rest three, two or one minutes as the exercise calls for, and choose one to two minutes for curls and skullcrushers. Where rest is zero, move straight to the next exercise. Choose your band and weighted setup. On day two, do at least twelve bodyweight pull-ups; the rep or effort target does not set an added weight. If you add extra day-two sets, choose their exercises, reps and rest yourself. Abs and cardio have no set workout here.

What you need

Everything its exercises call for. Missing something? The app suggests swaps that train the same thing.

  • Parallel bars
  • Pull-up bar
  • Resistance bands
