New Workout is live: 50 Minute Active Static Challenge & New FB Plus Features!

Hey guys, new workout video is live! This one is a 5/5 on our difficulty scale - prepare to be challenged!

50 Minute Lower Body Active Static Strength Workout - Strength and Endurance Burnout

In this lower body strength workout we are going to challenge your muscles in two ways. First we will challenge the strength of your legs in a specific motion, for example lunges. Then we will challenge those same muscle’s endurance by doing the same exercise but in a hold rather than a repeating movement. This workout actually tries to incorporate the two types of muscle fibers in skeletal muscle, fast twitch (think strength and power) and slow twitch (think endurance and high repetition), in the same routine. So in other words, get ready to feel your legs burn!

Are you guys tackling this new workout this today, or this week? We'd love to know what you think of it!

This is a really exciting week around here; we're also launching new FB Plus features tomorrow! As of tomorrow morning, FB Plus users will be able to add custom workouts or independent workout videos to their online workout calendars, which will then be reflected in their workout statistics. So whether it's a walk, swim, basketball game, snowboarding - you name it, you'll be able to add it. It also works for other trainers videos you enjoy; you'll be able to add that to your FB workout calendar and see that reflected in your stats as well.

The best part? FB Plus is still a baby! We're just getting started - and in early 2020 we'll start the release of exclusive content. So far FB Plus offers an entirely ads free experience, our "Surprise Me" feature for choosing a workout, and full workouts statistics that offer a breakdown of how often you're working each muscle group, a snapshot of the difficulty of your workouts and what kinds of training types you're using when you're working out.

If you're curious, now is a great time to check it out; FB Plus is being offered at a discount now through January 31 2020.

We hope that you all had a very relaxing weekend! Here's hoping that the week ahead of us holds low stress, smart workouts and healthy tasty food :)
