Difference in Programs
You will either be on our Everyday Athlete Package OR our Competitor Package. The one you choose to be on will depend completely on your personal goals, time, and equipment availability.
Everyday Athlete
Mayhem 30 (M30 Bodyweight/Minimal): Sweaty, challenging workout in less than 30 minutes. No equipment option available AND minimal equipment (dumbbells, box, jump rope)
Mayhem 60 (M60): Condensed version of our Mayhem Compete - ensured to only take 60 minutes. Think of a typical CrossFit class tailored for you.
Mayhem Scaled: Want to do M60 but still working on some skills? Scaled is the perfect way to grow the foundations you have and prepare for M60.
Mayhem Bodybuilding: Lifestyle training with typical bodybuilding movements. Will always see a main lift, with accessor, followed up with a “pump finisher”.
Mayhem Everyday Hero: Similar to our Mayhem 60 but tailored more specifically for Law Enforcement/Firefighters/Military with a mix of conditioning, bodybuilding and grunt work.
Competitor
+ plus +
Mayhem Compete: Geared towards individuals wanting to compete in the sport of CrossFit. Includes 2 daily sessions totaling 3-4+ hours of training.

Are you new to this type of training?
If you have never been on a fitness routine or never done this type of training, we have a few different approaches for you.
Walking – Level 1:
For someone who is currently very sedentary and has never been on a consistent program.
Will help develop habits of consistently working out.
Walking – Level 2:
For someone who used to be on an exercise routine and can go on 10 minute walks without exerting much energy.
Will build on current habits. Includes increased walking speed
Couch to Fitness:
For someone who has been on a fitness program in the past and looking to get back into it or has completed one of our Mayhem Walking Programs.
Completely bodyweight program with 10-15 minute workouts that will eventually build up to M30 Bodyweight!
These can be done in sequential order or you can start at #2 or #3 depending on your current fitness level.
After Couch to Fitness, we believe you will be ready to start our M30 Bodyweight Workouts.
