If your name should be up here and we missed it, we are so sorry — drop it in the comments, and we'll be cheering just as loud, promise.

And when you cross that finish line: the Normatec boots and Hyperice massage gun are waiting for you back at UAC. Come flush the legs out, tell us how it went, and let us celebrate you in person.

Go get it. 🚩

We know the program works. The results speak for themselves. 📈

In our most recent testing:

🏋️ 88% set a new Front Squat Personal Record
💪 86% set a new Overhead Press Personal Record

Now we want to see what happens when we take the same programming we use every day at Urban Athletic Club and put it in the hands of people training outside our walls.

So we’re opening up program-only access.

You’ll get the same structured strength and conditioning program our members follow at UAC — but you can train at your gym, on your schedule.

This isn’t random workouts.

We train in cycles.
We build strength.
We condition.
We test.
We measure.
Then we do it again.

Our next training cycle starts September 7.

And because we’re testing the remote experience, the first 50 people get access completely FREE.

All we ask is that you train with us and provide feedback so we can continue improving the program.

Want in?

DM us “PROGRAM” and we’ll get you access.

August Week 4 = Testing Week 🏆

Four weeks of work comes down to this. This week we assess where you are, celebrate the progress, and set the baseline for what comes next.

Monday — Front Squat Testing 🏋️
Find your new rep max based on your level.

Tuesday — Engine Testing 🫀
Three tests:
• 1-Mile Run
• 1K Row
• 1-Mile Bike

Wednesday — Overhead Press Testing 💪
Time to see what three weeks of pressing has built.

Thursday — HYROX Endurance
Our Endurance Reset: Ski, running, Wall Balls, sleds, Burpee Broad Jumps and Walking Lunges.

Friday — Lactic Tolerance Testing 🔥
A short, hard Thruster + Pull-up assessment.

Saturday — Partner Workout!
Bring your besti!e

Sunday — Zone 2
Slow it back down. Aerobic work, recovery and quality movement to finish the week.

Testing Week is not about comparing your numbers to someone else's. It's about measuring where YOU are now against where YOU were 4 weeks ago.

Show up. Record your scores. Celebrate the wins. Then we build again.
