Frequently asked questions.

On Your Mark Fitness is a structured, periodized coaching platform built around progressive overload — the proven method of gradually increasing workout difficulty to build strength, endurance, and an athletic physique. Every program is personalized to your goals, equipment, and fitness level. There are two main paths: traditional strength training and athletic training which combines strength, explosive movement patterns, and complex (superset) training.

Our onboarding questionnaire matches you to one of four programs based on your goals, fitness level, location, and equipment. Intro programs are built for anyone starting structured training for the first time. Lean Mass programs are designed for clients ready to build athleticism and muscle.

It depends on your program. Foundational At-Home and Lean Mass At-Home require minimal equipment — bodyweight and resistance bands are enough to start. Gym programs use barbells, dumbbells, cables, and machines. You'll select your equipment during onboarding.

As long as you want it to be. Each program is designed with one period of 6 progression blocks that make up 3 phases: 1) Foundation; 2) Build; and 3) Intensify and Peak. After you peak, you cycle back through to start another period. Periods are usually around 6 months, but that's up to you. You can go at your own pace.

The program cycles back to the Foundation phase with increased targets — more reps, heavier loads, and a higher baseline than where you started. Each periodized cycle you're building on the previous one. The goal is continuous, compounding progress.

The programs are designed for 3 sessions per week to allow adequate recovery — especially important for progressive overload to work. You can add light cardio, group fitness classes or mobility work on off days, but the structured sessions should stay at around 3 per week. If you miss one, no worries. There's a rolling schedule that gives you the flexibility to go at your own pace.

Absolutely. On Your Mark is a strength program built around a balanced 3-day system — which means there's plenty of room for HIIT classes, Pilates, yoga, or multiple runs each week. The program is designed to complement an active lifestyle, not replace it.
