The Home Team FAQ and General Info

December 15, 2020 by Kathryn Alexander

Welcome to The Home Team on Train Heroic! Once you begin your training sessions, you might have questions. Read here for some general knowledge of the program before you begin.

I’ll tell you exactly what equipment I suggest you use. Some links in this post are Amazon affiliate links to products that I love and use.

Notes about The Home Team:

Each exercise has a video demonstration and text description. The videos are quick – usually just about 10 seconds so you can see the correct form. You can even watch them from right in the gym.

Most videos have text descriptions as well. If you have further questions, feel free to email me, or leave a comment under the specific exercise. kathryn@kathrynalexander.com

The warm-up is just a suggestion.

The general rule is to do a dynamic warm-up first, and stretch after your training session. You can add in some easy movement such as walking or jogging, and light stretching, if that feels good to you. 

The weights I suggest are also approximate.

Start light, assess how the set went, and adjust accordingly. Don’t be afraid to start light. If anything, you can chalk it up to a warm up set and increase on the next. As you go, you’ll become more familiar with your weight abilities for each exercise.

Questions: 

What do I need for the home workouts?

Short answer: a pair of light dumbbells, a pair of medium dumbbells, a heavy dumbbell or kettlebell, and bands. You can get more if you want more, but this is a solid start. 

I want more. What should I get? 

A hip circle. This is an affiliate link to the exact band I love and use regularly.

Do I have to do the training sessions on the days they are posted? 

No. I will publish them by Sunday. Do them in order, but on the days that you can. 

Where do I start?

Here, and get your first week free! After that, it’s $27 a month, for as long as you are happy. No contracts, no hassle.

I am so excited to help you on your strength and conditioning journey!
