Take Control of Your Health with Control Freak
Has 2020 got you feeling like you’re out of control? Well, I think you know you’re not alone! And, there’s more good news — Autumn Calabrese has come to our rescue with her newest program. Are you ready to learn about Control Freak with me???
First, let’s chat about the whole “control freak” thing.
Don’t let people convince you that being one is bad. When it comes to your fitness, nutrition, and sleep habits, it’s GOOD to be a control freak!
If you’re looking to pivot and get yourself back on the good health track, consider doing the 9-week Control Freak workout with Autumn Calabrese.
About Beachbody’s Control Freak Program
As the title says, Control Freak is a 9-week program. That means you’re going to totally finish this program in just over two months!
It’s one of the best at-home workouts I’ve seen and I’m super excited about it!
The program has three 3-week phases. After each phase, Autumn ramps up the intensity and the exercise difficulty.
There’s also 10-minute bonus videos targeting specific muscle groups.
You’ll work out five days a week, which, I hope for the sake of your body and mind, you’re already doing in some way, shape, or form!
What Types of Workouts Can You Expect?
Autumn Calabrese designed the 9-Week Control Freak Program herself, so you know it’s gonna be great!
Think of each week as a mini-program where you’ll do three DCT-T workouts (Density, Strength Complexes, Tabata Training), one day of Tabata Cardio and Core, and one day of Total Body Tone.
That’s an intense five days, but the idea is to work out smarter, not longer. As I mentioned before, there are also 10-minute bonus videos targeting specific muscle groups.
Let me break down the training for you…
➡ Density Training
With density training, you’ll do five exercises performed one after the other — as many rounds as possible until the clock winds down.
This type of training builds both stamina and strength due to the extreme intensity.
➡ Strength Complexes
With strength complexes, you’ll increase your time under tension, which shifts your muscle building into overdrive. You’ll hold onto your weights or resistance band until you’ve completed every rep of EVERY exercise.
Autumn designed these strength complexes by combining a few exercises into one huge set that maximizes calorie burn, maximizes strength gains and muscle endurance.
➡ Tabata Training
Inspired by Japanese scientist Izumi Tabata’s research, Tabata Training is high-intensity interval training at its finest.
Basically, Tabata Training is short bursts of cardio followed by short breaks. But, those short bursts of cardio are intense, increasing your exercise capacity and burning LOTS of calories. You’ll increase your speed, strength, and endurance.
Three Training Formats for Amazing Success
Combining DCT-T workouts, a day of Total Body Tone, and Tabata Cardio and Core are going to get you in shape and back IN CONTROL in 9 weeks.
I think you’re going to love this brand new Beachbody workout program! Why? Because you’ll get lean and strong in 30 minutes or less a day right from home.
Here’s a little glimpse into the 9-Week Control Freak Program:
What You Need
You’ll need a few pieces of equipment if you’re going to take full advantage of the program. But, it’s a short list:
- Fitness Step (use an adjustable step like that used in Transform: 20)
- Core Ball
- Dumbbells (light, medium, and heavy)
- Control Track with B-LINES Resistance Band (only use as per instructions and attach to wall or qualified door)
Beachbody actually put together a Control Freak Accessory Bundle so you know exactly what to get — Control Freak Accessory Bundle
Once you’ve got the right equipment, find the best workout spot in the house, and you’re good to go.
If you’ve seen any of my videos, you know you don’t need a massive dedicated workout space. Just set yourself up wherever it works best for you in your house or yard.
Here’s a sample workout so you get an idea what you’re in for!
Does Control Freak Have a Nutrition Program?
If you’ve been following our blog, you already know you can’t exercise away a bad diet. Exercise is super important for your cardio fitness and strength, but you MUST complement it with a good nutrition program.
A nutrition program isn’t a diet! Good nutrition is a lifestyle choice.
This is where you take back CONTROL over food and stop letting it control you.
Beachbody has a couple of great nutrition programs proven to help people reach and maintain their goals:
Both programs have their own unique approach to getting your nutrition under CONTROL and keeping it there. (Click on the links above to learn more.)
You’ll hear Autumn talk about the Ultimate Portion Fix throughout the 9-week Control Freak program. This is her signature program that takes the guesswork out of portion sizes with meal plans and recipes (that even include desserts and cocktails – YES!).
You’ll learn how to reduce nutrition-sabotaging sugars in your diet, while swapping out processed foods for well-balanced and super satisfying eating.
How to Get the Control Freak Program
VIP Early Access to the Control Freak program starts December 21, 2020. Once you’ve bought the program, you’ll also have full digital access to Autumn’s Ultimate Portion Fix AND Ilana Muhlstein’s 2B Mindset.
