LEAN INTO STRONG

To get the best results from this program, you'll need a variety of weights. Preferably lighter, medium and heavy for best results!

This is largely individual but 8-30 pounds is the range most of my clients work in.

This program is geared toward women who are working out from home with basic equipment so you will not find machine exercises in this program. That said, you can get an amazingly effective workout with dumbbells and I can't wait to show you how!

The app is a convenient way to achieve multiple goals. First, your workouts are scheduled within the app, so you never have to wonder what workout you are supposed to be doing.

Second, the way the app works is that it will allow you to follow along with the full length video version, if you prefer to work at your own pace you can follow the app. The app also allows for you to keep record of your sets and reps so that you can track your progress from week to week.

Plus, it connects seamlessly to your devices like FitBit, Apple Watch, and My Fitness Pal.

Lean Into Strong is designed to be coached in real time, not sit in your downloads folder untouched. 😉

During the 4 weeks, you’ll have full app access, follow-along workouts, live workouts, coaching calls, and community support—because that level of accountability is what helps women actually get results.

If you’re looking for something self-paced with lifetime access, I do have mulitple workouts available on my website you can dowload for free.

But this program is built around coaching, support, and momentum.

Once the program ends, you’ll have the option to continue inside my monthly membership, where new programming builds on your progress, however if you choose not to continue, I’ll show you how to print your workouts PDF-style so you can keep the structure and repeat them on your own—you just won’t retain app access or the live coaching.

Part of your results will come from how consistent you can be with getting at least 3 workouts per week for the majority of the program. That said, life can sometimes be unpredicatble and things happen.

Please see my response above on how to retain access.

Yes—and I absolutely encourage you to include it for the best results.

Most of the strength workouts will have the option to add a cardio finisher, and as the program progresses, there will also be full-length cardio workouts that include some higher-intensity training.

How much cardio you actually need depends a lot on what your current routine looks like, which is exactly why I’m hosting The Cardio Blueprint on May 4th.

Inside that live training, I’ll walk you through how much cardio makes sense for your goals—whether that’s fat loss, better conditioning, or simply improving your overall heart health—and how to make it work alongside your strength training so you can maximize your results.

This is honestly my favorite part of the program!

Every other Monday we meet for a LIVE workout at 8:30 AM EST (and yes, the replays are posted in the app).

On alternating weeks, I host drop-in coaching hours via Zoom on Friday's at 12:00 PM EST —your chance to ask me anything about the workouts, modifications, or staying consistent.

Plus, you’ll have Q+A access both inside the app and in our private group chat right in the app!!

I check in multiple times a day, so you’re never left hanging or feeling unseen.

This is the “secret sauce” of Lean Into Strong—real connection and support that keep women committed and excited to see results. 😉

This program includes three total bodystrength training workouts each week. With my programming, you’ll hit all your major muscle groups several times per week.

You’ll also have the option to add HIIT finishers or stand-alone cardio/conditioning workouts. But here’s the thing: if your goal is strength, you can absolutely stick with just the strength workouts and still see results.

That said… many women discover they love the quick, sweaty finishers once we get rolling. 🙂

Yes—but let’s be clear about the goal.

Lean Into Strong is designed to help you maintain the lean muscle you already have while maximizing fat loss. We’re not trying to max out your lifts or build a ton of muscle in four weeks.

This is for the woman who wants to feel a little leaner, a little stronger, and have her clothes fit better heading into summer. When the goal is body recomposition—meaning fat loss while holding onto muscle—your nutrition, your daily movement, your step count, and using cardio strategically all matter.

That’s exactly why I’m including The Cardio Blueprint, Macros Made Simple, and Fat Loss Fundamentals as bonus content.

These are programs I would normally charge extra for, but honestly, I believe this is the missing link that frustrates so many women, so it made sense to include them here since this is the first time I am running this program for new clients.

And if you take what I’m teaching you, actually implement it, there’s no doubt in my mind you’ll notice a difference—whether that’s inches lost, better energy, or finally having your clothes fit the way you want them to.

You’ll receive a Welcome email with all the housekeeping details you’ll need to know to get ready when the program officially begins.

Yes!

A lot of my clients love casting the workouts to their TVs—because really, who wants to follow along on a tiny phone screen?

Once you register, I’ll send you simple instructions on how to cast from the app to your television, plus the link to the desktop version of the app (in case you’d rather stream from your laptop).

Every TV setup is a little different, so while I can’t provide step-by-step tech support for every system, I’ll give you all the resources you need—and I’ll do my best to point you in the right direction if you get stuck.

I get it—sometimes a program just isn’t the right fit. My goal is for you to feel amazing about your investment and truly benefit from the program so you can get the results you want.

That’s why you’ll have 5 calendar days from the program start date (May 9th) to request a full refund—no questions asked.

After those 5 days, refunds are no longer available, but you can exchange your enrollment for another one of my programs instead.

Please email support@jenniferkirschfitness.com and we will take care of you from there.

I love that you want to start strength training, and I do have a true beginner program for that.

If you’re completely new to strength training, please reach out to us at support@JenniferKirschFitness.com for more details—we’ll be relaunching that later this summer.

That said, Lean Into Strong can still be a great fit if you’ve done group fitness classes, YouTube workouts, or have some basic comfort with dumbbells—even if you’re not fully confident about increasing your weights yet.

You do not need to be advanced, but I do want to be honest: because of the pacing and structure, this program can feel intense, and it won’t be the right fit for everyone. If you’re brand new to fitness with very little strength training experience, I’d rather point you in the right direction than have you feel overwhelmed.

You truly can’t rush this part. Either way, I’m here to help, so feel free to reach out and we’ll make sure you land in the right place.

It depends on the injury.

This program does have a self-paced option, which means you do not have to follow the videos exactly if you’re comfortable making your own modifications.

That’s great for women who already know how to adjust around certain limitations.

That said, I do want to be clear—this program includes movements like lunges, push-ups, and other foundational strength exercises, so you want to make sure your knees, shoulders, and overall movement feel solid enough that you’re not getting more than you bargained for.

If you’re currently dealing with pain or working through an injury, I’d always recommend getting clearance from your doctor or physical therapist first.

I’d rather you be in the right program than push through something your body isn’t ready for.

Absolutely—and first, good for you for looking at strength training.

If you’re on a GLP-1, maintaining your muscle is going to be one of the most important pieces of your long-term success, and that’s exactly where strength training becomes non-negotiable.

The goal isn’t just weight loss—it’s making sure you’re holding onto as much lean muscle as possible while your body composition improves.

That said, quick weight loss can sometimes come with muscle loss too, which is why your nutrition matters just as much as your workouts.

You need enough protein, enough structure, and a plan that supports both fat loss and muscle preservation.

That’s where the Macros Made Simple guide can be a huge asset.

It helps you understand how to better support your body nutritionally so the work you’re doing in Lean Into Strong actually pays off long term.
