NEXT LEVEL

OF TRAINING

NXT consists of 18 four-week long phases of advanced training. It is a collection of elite level workouts originally designed for Coach Cavaliere’s pro athlete clients. The training focus rotates each month between strength, hypertrophy and a strength/hypertrophy hybrid. NXT is best suited for intermediate to advanced level athletes who have completed at least one ATHLEAN-X program. You can perform any NXT title as a standalone program or subscribe and perform them all in succession.

Month 1: Anabolix

Step into the elite training facility used by NFL All-Pro wideout Brandon Marshall and the New England Patriots and let me train you with this incredible kickoff to NXT. Anabolix was designed with one purpose in mind...to get you more muscular, and most importantly, stronger then ever before. With advanced never before seen training techniques and 8 all new lung busting burst training workouts, Anabolix will pull results out of even the most seasoned A-X athletes. From the first workout to the last, you're going to have to earn every inch of progress you make this month...but then again, would you expect anything less? This is the next level of training. This is NXT.

It's still your set! NXT takes extended training to a whole new level with Half Life. Utilizing the incredibly intense "decay" and "doubling" sets, your muscles will have no option of giving up since the loads will match your ability (even when utterly fatigued!) Burst training bursts back on the scene as well, and this time, it's "phase-like"! Are you catching on by now that NXT is not for the weak willed (or just plain weak for that matter!)

How much can you take before you break? We're going to find out! Breaking point introduces a "choose your own fate" feature into your training, allowing you to push yourself to your limits like no phase has to date. Points (and your pride) are at stake this month as you seek to rank among the elite on TEAM NXT, while racing against the clock in the mind messing "counter point" workouts!

Month 5: Shockwave Training

It's time to send some serious shockwaves through your muscles as you unleash the most staggering training frequency overload ever seen in A-X programming! Through careful manipulation of loading parameters and off days however, as always, you can be assured of never crossing the into the realm of overtraining while reaping the benefits of what happens by flirting with it! And...just when you thought it was safe to go back into the gym, you'll have to survive the intensity of "SHOCK WEEK"...4 brutal tests of toughness, culminating in the oh so humbling SHELLSHOCKED Challenge! It's time to "wave" goodbye to routine training forever!

Month 6: WOLVERINE: BEASTMODE

It's BAAACK! But don't let the name fool you, there's nothing comical about this chapter of NXT. A-X diehards will recognize the name from the original (and still talked about!) Wolverine Workout, but rest assured, Beastmode takes fierce training to a whole new level. Beastmode ratchets up the intensity of the original and puts a whole new spin on each of the three characteristic Wolverine phases of training (Animal Strength, Stalking, and Ruthless Agression) to get you Jackman-like jacked in exchange for your hard work! After 5 months of laying the physical and mental groundwork, it's time to finally let the beast out of it's cage to come out and play! It's time to go Beastmode!

Month 7: 3D-HD Training

It's time to step out of your comfort zone and into the future of training. 3 dimensions of misery overlap with a revamped version of one of AX-2's most popular training phases to yield perhaps the most athletically inspired and results producing workouts yet seen in NXT! Making these 28 days of training even harder are the weekly "3rd Degree Burn" workouts guaranteed to fuel the fire of even the most slow burning metabolisms. 3D-HD Training is the future, and your future starts now...

Month 8: In10Sity Training

Welcome to In10sity, where everything you do this month will feel ten times harder...because it is! Anyone training long enough knows that even the best designed workout performed without high effort will produce less than impressive results. But we know that already, and that's why we programmed our "slacker proof" protocol of "P.R.O." reps and a heavy dose of well earned active recovery! From your first ignition set to your last blast set, you're about to feel what it would be like if you were standing in the middle of a mack truck and a bulldozer during a game of chicken...and neither one gave in! Did I mention this month is intense?

Month 9: Pull Up or Shut Up

You've heard the old saying...'put up or shut up' right? It means, time to show me what you've got right now or forever be doubted. Well, as only A-X can do, I've got a little spin on that for you. This month, you'll have no choice but to 'Pull Up or Shut Up!'. Time to seriously turn up the volume and get you performing more of what most will agree is the greatest upper body exercise of all time...the pullup! Worried about overtraining? Don't even think about it. My Pullup Progression principles will scientifically vary your loads to ensure progression without regression. You might say, 'But I'm not good at pullups' or 'I can only do 3', again not to worry. I have your back, and have created a tool to accommodate all levels of pullup prowess! Athletes that have performed this phase have finished it not only adding to their overall number of pullups (some adding as many as 40% to their max) but also adding measurable size to their upper arms and lats. Will you Pull Up or...?

Step right up and don't be shy! She's a beauty alright but don't let her winning smile fool you. You will quickly learn no matter how you approach this lady there is no getting lucky! Each week of Lady Luck training has a winning combo of new techniques and training modalities that will continue to expand upon the gains you've made with your NTX training. Don't let the fun and games fool you, this is more of the hardcore training that you've come to expect from your NXT training and the final challenge will surprise even the longest members of Team Athlean! Trust me, you're not ready!!!! This phase is going to test your conditioning, your mettle and push the limits of your strength with strength mods that hit you from every angle on every strength workout.

Month 11: COREMAX-EST TRAINING

During a particularly hard training session with one of my elite athletes we discovered that he wasn't great at a certain exercise. I expected him to get frustrated since he is truly a top level performer. Instead he said, good...now I know where my weakness is and I can work on it. The mark of a true competitive athlete! Guess what? Since you're in NXT following the same protocols the best of the best are...now it's your turn to see how you feel about this!! NXT ups the ante yet again with Core MAX EST. This month we're going to focus on energy system training (EST) and the three primary energy systems that we use in training; phosphocreatine, glycolytic, and aerobic or muscular endurance...but it doesn't end there. Much like in the past where we've overlapped strength curves to elicit even greater gains than any single strength curve could generate on it's own, you'll be getting a heavy dose of system overlap...allowing you to tap into all three in EVERY WORKOUT!

Month 12: The 4 Horseman

Can you believe it? The 12th month of NXT is here already, and with it...the arrival of the 4 horsemen to usher in the Athlean Apocolypse...or are they? You see, instead of all things evil (we will save that for next month...YES, there will be a next month!), the fearsome foursome are here to close out your first year of NXT level training with one helluva ride. That said, the only war being waged here is on your muscles (and your will) using what I regard to be the 4 most powerful, results producing exercises in my stable of thousands! That's right, prepare to launch an all out attack on your body with just 4 carefully selected exercises and 4 brutally intense workouts per week. Whoa, you didn't think that was all did you? This is NXT after all! Introducing the 'Finishers'...15 of them to be exact. Each one standing in the way of you successfully completing your days work. Oh yes, the horsemen ride again. Better saddle up and come ready to train!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Equipment requirements for NXT will be almost identical to AX-1 and AX-2 (dumbbells, resistance band, pullup bar, and a bench or something to lay on) with the inclusion of a barbell and some plates. HOWEVER similar to XERO, we will be providing you with alternatives in case you lack something so that you can do an equivalent exercise with what you DO have. So, as always, no x-cuses!

As has always been my philosophy, I believe you can either work out hard or long…but not both! Well, in NXT you’re going to encounter some of my most grueling workouts so you can expect the same 20-40 minute workout durations that will cause maximal stimulation and muscle growth without annihilation and overtraining!

First of all, let’s get this straight…if you decide to take advantage of the membership offer, you can cancel at any time! I’m not doling out life sentences here so if you need to cancel for any reason I’d be sad to see you go but wouldn’t hold it against you (ok, maybe a little!). That said, while other membership programs cancel your complete access to the private content when you are no longer a member…that’s not how I wanted to run it! Instead, you’ll keep up to one month less than the number of months you were enrolled. So, for instance if you were enrolled for 6 months, you’ll keep access to 5! Yes, NXT is much cooler than those other memberships!

If you decide to rejoin NXT at a later date you’ll be able to resume where you left off. For example, if you were enrolled for 7 months, left for 2 months to tour the world as an A-X ambassador and then signed up again…you’d start in month 8. This ensures that you stay on the continuous progressive path established from month to month while always still allowing you the flexibility to back track a few months and get yourself up to speed.

There is no meal plan included or written specifically for NXT, however if you own the X-Factor Meal Plan from a previous A-X program you may absolutely use that in conjunction with your NXT workouts.

You can, but I’m not sure you’ll be 100% ready to tackle it. As you know, I take training progression seriously since my physical therapy background demands it. AX-2 is meant to pick up where AX-1 left off in your development…and NXT does the same for guys having completed AX-2. Again, the choice is yours, but the AX-2 beast is the ultimate prep for the demands of NXT.
