Star Wars Fit Film Challenge: Episode IV-VI

A LONG TIME AGO IN A GALAXY FAR FAR AWAY.....

The lingering anxiety of staggered re-opening strategies has given rise to a populace bored and impatient from months of self-isolation.

With tempers boiling and tensions running high, a lone trainer has found a way to combine fun and fitness; training the next generation of Jedi from the comfort of their couches.

We join our heroes, these isolated knights of the Stay-Home Jedi Order, in Episodes IV-VI of their journey...

THE NEW JEDI ORDER

Fit Film Challenge workouts are designed for all levels of fitness using 4 levels of difficulty. Each level has a specific exercise to perform after a certain trigger during the film. These triggers can be based on a plot point, action, or piece of dialogue.

Padawan is the most novice, demanding the least movement difficulty and work volume.

Knight is for those proficient with form, adding more volume throughout the film.

Master is for experienced lifters, maximizing movement difficulty with great volume.

Sith Lord is for those who want to tap into the Dark Side. Success will only come with great suffering.

Much training, you need. May the Force be with you.
