GET FITTER
Get Fitter workouts are designed on supersets of exercises paired to encourage as much
work as possible while minimizing fatigue. This style of superset training results in a very
effective metabolic training effect with high calorie burn.

GET POWERFUL
Get Powerful is the workout series with motivating and most intense workouts. These
sessions are a combination of complex movements and challenging intensities in order
to achieve the highest possible training effect.
Workouts
HAMMER STRENGTH BOX PROGRAMMING

The 12 workouts in each category are also divided into 3 colors:

BLUE
The training units in the blue range focus on simple and effective movements executed
well. The rate at which the exercise is completed make these workouts suitable for all
fitness levels.

GREEN
The training units in the green range feature technically more advanced exercise selection.

RED
The training units in the red range are designed for exercises who like to work with high
training intensities. Due to the more complex movements a good exercise technique and
experienced fitness level is required.

The second part is mobility, ensuring we mobilize joints and highlight any movement
patterns we may feature later in the workout. There are some general guidelines to the
type of activities you could possibly perform, as part of the preparation in the Hammer

if required. ALWAYS ensure that the group/ individuals are as fully prepared as possible
before ending this section.
