    This exclusive workout, created by David Freeman—Life Time Fitness Most Valuable Trainer, three-time Trainer of the Year, and National Alpha Training Signature Brand Manager—is an intense full-body blitz—ideal for smashing through a plateau and taking your fitness and physique to the next level.

    Based on the popular Alpha program, available only at Life Time, this workout uses just six exercises—three of them strength based and three of them plyometric focused—and short rest periods to build muscle, strength, and endurance while elevating your heart rate and incinerating calories.

    The Alpha program at Life Time develops everyday functional movement patterns, and workouts are built around the development of eight fitness abilities: strength, power, endurance, speed, agility, coordination, balance, and flexibility.

    You can find out more about Alpha at your local Life Time destination.
