Ever feel overwhelmed when it comes to finding a true beginner’s workout program you can do at home that won’t leave you less than motivated if you find yourself not able to keep up and feeling so sore the next day you can’t move?
There’s finally a solution. It’s a work out program designed exclusively for true beginners like yourself that help you ease into the habit of working out.
Say hello to the For Beginners Only workout program on BODi. A 30-day comprehensive workout program that provides you with a total solution to your weight loss needs.
What is the For Beginners Only Workout Program on BODi?
For Beginners Only is one of the most effective beginner workouts available when it comes to online workout streaming platforms. And I have tried the beginners’ programs on so many different apps and online sites just to see what’s really for beginners and what really works.
Featuring super trainer Lacee Green, For Beginners Only was the first ever super block on BODi.
A Little Bit About Super Trainer Lacee Green
BODi super trainer Lacee Green has been helping people find their inner power to get in the best shape of their lives for over a decade now. Her favorite title is mom, but she is also a studio owner, certified personal trainer, nutritionist, group fitness instructor, and fitness model.
Lacee makes fitness fun. She is so much fun. She has such amazing energy and is always so optimistic. I’ve yet to see her not smiling, encouraging, and reminding you to embrace where you are right now – rolls, curves and all. Because fitness should be for every body.
After the popularity and effectiveness of Lacee’s For Beginner’s Only super block program on BODi, there’s a new For Beginners Only workout block that starts the first Monday of every month, which we’ll go over briefly below.
What Is a BODi Block?
BODi blocks are 30-day workout programs on BODi that start the first Monday of every month. They’re designed for those who like variety in their programs, but also want something a little more structured than live daily classes (that you can always add in on your active recovery days if you want!)
BODi Block Schedule
With BODi blocks, you work out for 4 weeks total. The first three weeks are scheduled workouts in the program calendar, and the 4th week is what’s called the UP week. The UP week is an active recovery week of mostly your choice.
Each workout is around 30 minutes, so it won’t take too much commitment each day. And they’re always fun, so it never feels like real work anyways no matter how much you sweat.
There are four different types of blocks to choose from every month:
- For Beginners Only
- All-BODi
- Bike
- Iron
There are also Super Blocks available each month that feature one of Beachbody’s popular workout programs like T25 or 21 Day Fix. These blocks feature the original super trainers who created the program like Shaun T, Jericho McMatthews, or Autumn Calabrese.
What Makes the For Beginners Only Program on BODi Better than Other Online Beginner Programs?
The main focus of the For Beginners Only workout program on BODi is to introduce a true beginner to working out and eating healthy. The program gives you the confidence you need to continue to tackle your health and fitness goals by not leaving you feeling overwhelmed and quickly falling back into old habits.
The For Beginners Only program is designed to gently get you into the habit of exercise whether you’re totally new to living healthier or just getting back into things after a long time away. It’s doable for anyone of any fitness level or age.
Super trainer Lacee Green takes you through the workout basics, guiding you at a doable pace through your cardio, strength, core, and mobility workouts. She is empowering and always honors where you’re at right now so you can see just how much you’re capable of achieving.
Why For Beginners Only Is a Total Solution for Exercise Beginners
Here are some things that set For Beginners Only apart from the online competition:
- Introduces you to a variety of workout types like low-impact cardio, strength training, core work, and mobility workouts.
- You have 3 different modifiers to match up your fitness level with to best help you with your fitness journey:
- One super low impact modifier for those with mobility issues or who haven’t worked out in a very long time.
- One modifier for the typical beginner who’s not ready to work out at a high intensity or high impact, but could eventually work up to that point at least intensity-wise.
- One modifier who’s a little bit more advanced if you want to challenge yourself more or aren’t a true beginner (aka you haven’t worked out in a while.)
- Comes with 2 easy-to-follow nutrition plans to choose from.
- Comes with a workout calendar.
- Comes with program materials and introduction videos to help you succeed.
- Comes with community support, as well as the individual support from the partner you’re signed up and their accountability groups with who can help you reach your goals.
The hardest thing about living healthier is getting into the daily habit of working out and eating better. For Beginners Only eases you into these habits without ever making you feel overwhelmed. And if it ever feels too hard, just follow the easier modification or repeat the week over. You can easily customize to your needs and do it at your own pace!
After finishing your first month, you can either go for another round of For Beginners Only or try out a different program if you’re ready to take on a new challenge.
Two For Beginners Only Versions to Choose From?
Besides what makes the program better than other beginner workout programs out there is that you always have two options to choose from any time you decide to start:
- For Beginners Only Super Block: This is the original For Beginners Only workout version that features only super trainer Lacee Green. I’ve done the program with her after not having worked out for a while, and it was so much fun – and pretty challenging! You can find it in your BODi library under April 2023. *If you’ve seen the workout program advertised on TV, this is the version you want to do.
- For Beginners Only BODi Block: This For Beginners Only workout program has a new version every single month. Different trainers help you through the program each day, so you’ll never get bored. I personally like the Super Block more, but I am a huge fan of Lacee Green and her infectious optimism. I also feel like having one trainer makes it more like a typical BODi (formerly Beachbody) workout program .
The For Beginners Only Workout Schedule
When you’re following the For Beginners Only workout program on BODi, you work out 5 days each week for 4 weeks just like any BODi block.
One other unique aspect of the For Beginners Only workout program schedule is that it’s based on block periodization. Block periodization is achieving the right combination of training variations and recovery to maximize your results. It isn’t just about the physical health, it’s also a lot about your mental health.
| Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday | |
| Week 1 | Rest | Cardio Classic | Upper Body Foundations | Accelerator | Cardio & Core | Lower Body Foundations | Rest |
| Week 2 | Rest | Upper Body Foundations | Cardio & Core | Accelerator | Lower Body Foundations | Cardio Classic | Rest |
| Week 3 | Rest | Cardio & Core | Full Body Foundations | Accelerator | Cardio Classic | Full Body Foundations | Rest |
| UP Week | Rest | Sample a new workout or block | Recover/Explore | Full Body Foundations | Recover/Explore | Accelerator | Rest |
What is UP Week in the For Beginners Only workout schedule?
- Week 4 is the UP week. It leaves the week open to do whatever you like. UP week allows you to rest and recharge in order to get your body and mind ready for next month! You can”
- Take an extra rest day
- Try a new workout program
- Follow the recommended UP week workouts
- Try a sample workout from the upcoming month’s Super Block
- Try a slower paced yoga or barre class
- Explore some mindset content
Then after UP week, you can either repeat the program or move onto another workout program or try out some live classes if you’re up for it.
For Beginners Only Bonus Workouts
When you choose the For Beginners Only Super Block with Lacee Green, you also get access to 6 For Beginners Only Bonus workouts if you follow the program:
- Cycle Foundations
- Cycle Foundations: All Terrain
- Cycle Foundations: Intervals
- 5er: Foundational Stretch Upper Body
- 5er: Foundational Stretch Lower Body
- 5er: Foundational Stretch Total Body
What Equipment Do You Need for For Beginners Only Program?
The equipment you need for the For Beginners Only workout program is what you want to have in any home workout space:
- Dumbbells: light, medium, and heavy
- Resistance loops
- Yoga mat or core comfort mat (optional)
- Towel (optional)
- MYX bike (optional if doing the bonus workouts, but it legit helps enhance the overall BODi experience)
If you need help deciding what weights you should use for the For Beginners Only workout program, I have a great post that explains everything you need to know about choosing the right light, medium, and heavy weights for your workouts before you go out and spend a ton of money on new weights.
You don’t need much space to do the workout, which means you can easily follow the program even if your workout space is limited! I pretty much didn’t go beyond the area of my yoga mat.
The For Beginners Only Workouts
I know some people worry about workouts being repetitive. And even though the For Beginners Only workout names repeat, the workouts on BODi are all unique.
You will not be doing the same exact workouts each week whether you choose to do the Super Block with Lacee Green or the monthly BODi block with different trainers day-to-day. The workouts do get progressively more advanced to keep you gaining strength and endurance and making continuous progress, so you can move on once the program is over.
For Beginners Only Workout Program Results
One of the main purposes of the For Beginners Only workout program on BODi is to introduce a true beginner to the concepts commonly seen in at-home workout programs. It’s designed to get you maximum results in a short period of time. But these results aren’t just about losing weight and burning fat. It’s about building the confidence you need to continue on with your weight loss journey.
“I absolutely loved that the For Beginners Only program is 100% doable for any fitness level. One of the modifiers even does some of the moves sitting in a chair. It’s so inclusive! Plus, the program taught me so much about health and fitness without ever feeling condescending like I was dumb for not already knowing. Highly recommend for anyone looking for the perfect place to start.” Elena K.
