I signed up for Tier 2 & feel like I'm getting way more than my money's worth. Michelle gives the best feedback & has been so helpful with my recovery from injury. Not only does she give great advice & swap out exercises I'm not currently able to do, but she is also so kind & encouraging & has given me such a different perspective on recovery. She's showed me how to give grace to myself & take it as an opportunity to learn more about my body & how it responds to certain exercises etc. 10/10 recommend.      -CHARITY

By far the most progress I've seen is in my legs which is crazy because it doesn't seem like it's a heavy leg program. I've also seen a lot of progress on the functional side of things.    -CARRINGTON

*5 deload weeks programmed throughout the year


Transition back to hypertrophy for main compounds as you focus on building strength in accessory work. 


MESO 4

Pivot to strength in main as you build on your refresh of solid compound lifts. Play around with those pumps in accessory work through a hypertrophic focus.


MESO 3

Continue building your capacity in main lifts for the first 4 weeks before moving into a hypertrophic focus in main compounds while incorporating some AMRAP sets. Keep volume in check by shifting to a strength focus in accessory work.

MESO 2

BUILT ON BASICS: EXPRESS

52 total weeks, phase breakdown

Start off this program with a hypertrophic focus that shifts slightly to capacity in main lifts toward the last 5 weeks as you reconnect with those bigger compounds. Get used to using tempo and RPE (if you aren’t already)

I'm actually excited to start Phase 5. Don't know it I've ever been excited for a workout plan like this before. So you're doing something right.

more about me

Hey, I'm Michelle. I've been in the industry over 6 years and have plenty of online + in person experience that heavily impacts the way I program. I've seen how important it is to include the "small stuff" (core work, movement prep) alongside the "big stuff" (deadlifts, squats, bench, pull ups) and have personally felt the difference when I do. I've heard time and time again how people enrolled in my programs feel the difference as well.

Unfortunately, I've rarely been able to find all of these components in a well rounded program that didn't require hours of time to complete.

SO, that's my endeavor with Built on Basics (B.O.B.). I've put it all together so you don't have to.

...It's that mental load has shifted and you're trying to make all the puzzle pieces in your life fit. If there was a well rounded, shorter workout option that lasted longer than 8 weeks you'd jump at the chance. You can settle in (for 12 months if you'd like), and then repeat it again. 

IT'S NOT THAT YOU'RE "LAZY" JUST BECAUSE YOU NEED A PROGRAM TO TAKE LESS TIME...
