General Strength and Fitness 3 Month Preparation Pathway

This 3 month pathway is designed for people who want clear structure and direction in their training without overcomplicating things.

It is ideal if you want to build strength, improve fitness, and establish consistency over the next 12 weeks. Rather than chasing intensity or jumping between programs, this pathway focuses on doing the right things in the right order.

The goal is not to exhaust you. The goal is to build momentum and confidence in your training.


Who this pathway is for

This pathway is well suited if:

• You want to improve general strength and fitness
• You feel unsure what to train next
• You want a simple structure that fits real life
• You are returning to training or want a reset
• You want results without burning out

This pathway works well for beginners and intermediate trainers alike, with flexibility to match different experience levels.


What the 3 month focus is

With a 3 month timeline, the priority is to build a solid foundation.

This pathway focuses on:

• Developing full body strength
• Improving basic conditioning and work capacity
• Building tolerance to regular training
• Establishing consistent training habits

Rather than specialising early, the emphasis is on broad, transferable fitness.


How the 12 weeks are structured

The 3 month General Strength and Fitness pathway uses a single focused 12 week training block.

Strength and conditioning are trained together in a balanced way, allowing you to improve fitness while managing fatigue and recovery.

This integrated approach works well when the goal is general improvement rather than performance in a specific event.

What to focus on during this pathway

During this 3 month phase, progress comes from consistency rather than intensity.

Key priorities include:

• Completing sessions as planned
• Managing recovery between workouts
• Avoiding unnecessary extra training
• Allowing fitness to build gradually

The goal is to finish the 12 weeks feeling more capable, not worn down.

The General Strength and Fitness 3 month preparation pathway is built to remove confusion and help you build momentum.
