Is THIS The Perfect Workout Program?
The perfect workout program doesn’t exist?
Let’s ask Dwight.
I’m with Schrute.
The perfect workout program is one that builds your strength, lean mass (muscle), balance, coordination, mobility, heart health, confidence, and ability—while also improving your physique.
No small feat, especially when you consider that it also has to be fun enough to keep you motivated and coming back for more.
I know I’m biased, but the Digital Barbell training method checks all these boxes—and it’s completely scalable to all levels of fitness.
Blakley is the mastermind behind our programming here at DBHQ, and here’s a sneak peek at how she creates the framework of the training we customize to get our clients results.
Some of our awesome clients work out 3 days per week, and some work out 5. Regardless, the foundation of their weekly training is built around traditional strength training.
Each week, they do sets of weighted squats, deadlifts, bench presses, overhead presses, and rows.
Many use barbells, many use dumbbells.
The goal is simple: get stronger by gradually increasing the amount of weight lifted while ensuring proper form.
It’s simple and it works like a charm.
Once the main lifts are done, we move on to the “accessory” exercises.
Every workout includes 3–4 exercises like dumbbell curls, lateral raises, calf raises, and tricep extensions.
These moves make you stronger, improve joint health, and best of all—build the muscles that make you look like you work out.
If you’re only doing group classes or cardio, now you know why your physique hasn’t changed much.
We do 3 or 4 sets of these “bodybuilding” exercises per workout, and they’re always a crowd-pleaser.
Blakley also programs cardio strategically, so you’re not stuck doing boring steady-state sessions or daily soul-crushing HIIT.
Instead, she writes 2–3 “finishers” per week that get your heart rate up and sneaks in extra ab, leg, and arm work.
Here’s an example from next week’s program:
3 SUPERSETS for Quality of:
10 to 15 Dumbbell Push Press
10 to 15 Underhand Grip Dumbbell Rows
20 to 30 Sit-Ups or Crunches
You’d complete the three exercises, rest for about 60 seconds, then do it again.
Proper form and safety are a top priority, so every exercise includes a video demo of Blakley or me showing you exactly what to do, plus recommendations for what weight to use.
There are a lot of options when it comes to choosing a workout program.
If you’re not following one, it’s time to start.
If you’ve worked out before but fallen off, it’s time to get back to it.
And if you’re working out now but not seeing results, that ain’t right.
You need a program that actually delivers—one that builds strength, muscle, confidence, and a physique you’re proud of without boring you to tears or burning you out.
We eliminate the guesswork, provide the structure you need, and make sure every rep counts. All you have to do is show up and put in the work.
Time is going to pass either way. Let’s get you training smarter and seeing results.
Results like this:
Lift heavy, and be nice.
