NO MORE!!!! Polykinetics is also virtually excuse proof (no excuses but really I tested it) and demographically universal.

Polykinetics uses structured rhythm patterns, tempo speed and controlled breathing to influence how the body and mind distributes force and transitions between activation and recovery states. ⚛️

Created in 2014 Polykinetics is the SIMPLISTIC, SAFE; yet INCREASINGLY CHALLENGING tempo training fitness technique EVER created with results that will shock the strongest of skeptics! Created in January 2014 by an overweight mom facing the end of a marriage who knew life is harder physically and mentally when struggling with weight problems on top of everything else going on with little to no resources to use. Nothing more than moves, music and a mindset to put it all into action that not only helped that mom to lose MORE THAN 100LBS but change the lives of countless others who know the power of staying "on the beat" to build themselves up physically and mentally -- all in one! Polykinetics is a smarter not harder, tension over time, tempo beat keeping way to SIMPLY build and create your very best self starting from the foundational fitness basics to advanced movements all while staying on the beat to your favorite music without the frustrations on big body movements and constant move changes!! Polykinetics is made for those who are either brand new to fitness or who have not been physically fit for a long time and/or have several barriers in their way of living a quality life physically and mentally! Stay on the beat and learn how to burn fat and build muscle in half the time and without feeling completely drained!!! This is NOT dance aerobics it’s simplified tempo fitness at its finest!

🍂 Introducing GROW-VEMBER!
30 Days of Movement & Personal Growth physically AND mentally!

October’s challenge has been about “PK in some way, every day!” In November, we’re carrying that commitment forward by giving each day a personal growth factor to reflect on and put into active practice.

Polykinetics relies on the 3 core factors: MOVES • MELODY • MINDSET moving in tandem to one another.

30 days. 30 principles. One opportunity each day to put a mental intention into physical practice.

From self-awareness and compassion to courage, persistence, and gratitude, we’ll explore how these principles show up in our workouts AND our everyday lives.

What might patience look like during an exercise you’re still learning? How can adaptability help you modify a workout? When does courage mean trying something new—and when does integrity mean honoring your limits?

Each day, I’ll highlight one principle, share a reflection, and connect it with an opportunity to move using Polykinetics. Standing, seated, or lying down—work within your abilities using what you have.

These principles can be practiced together or individually. The daily focus simply gives us one a little more attention at a time. There’s no expectation to master any particular quality in 24 hours! Just to reflect on what the word means to YOU!

The goal: practice movement and personal growth together, one day at a time. Rhythmic movement while using the day’s focus to help guide you through.

Ok so……who’s joining me for Grow-vember? 💙🎶

Life lessons won’t always come easily but if you’re determined enough it’ll show you things about yourSELF you didn’t know existed!

What are the questions I get most… Is “How frequently should I be doing this?” and really it comes down to what your goals are and what you’re able to do from one session to the next…

However the fitness industry standard as it currently stands is

3 days is considered part-time
5 days is considered full-time
2 days for recovery and time for extras beyond training!

But preferably whatever time you DO dedicate be split as you see fit between cardio, strength, balance, flexibility, speed/power training along with breath and recovery work…

That’s a lot…..and most don’t have a lot of time, energy, patience, etc….

Which is exactly why I love because it works as a many-at-once, depending on which sequences are being used in a session so even shorter sessions feel like I got a lot of good work in—Understanding that even small steps make big differences when those steps are done consistently rhythmic!

“How long should I do each exercise sequence for?”

In Polykinetics time duration is used to train your skills and “sets and reps” are used to test different skills.

Most singular sequences with minimal to no variable changes are between 1-3 minutes for general fitness sessions.

But time is a workable variable where you can simply increase and decrease it based on your needs and abilities.

The best part is you don’t have to consistently keep doing just “two minute exercises” for them to be effective.

You can do a 1 minute exercise on the beat and have it be effective.
You can do a 4 minute polyrhythmic sequence on the beat and have it be effective
Just as long as you maintain that rhythmic precision to an external beat you are going to benefit every single second in someway regardless of the actual amount of time you’re able to do.

So don’t think just because you didn’t reach 3 minutes you didn’t get all your benefits ….that is not true.

It simply increases the work demand frequency but more isn’t always better which is why I adamantly train people how to find their sweet spot so they can do the most work with the shortest amount of time.

If you look at many of my videos, you will see me mentioning “big fun after 30 seconds” and that is because in my lived professional experience with most of my clients I realized most fell within a time range window of 30 to 45 seconds before the face began to show signs of fatigue— this is why one single minute is your first time goal in poly kinetics… After you reach that first minute two minutes…and so on.

So when you think of a workout stop thinking in terms of 10…20….30 minutes start thinking in terms of 1…2…3 minutes each exercise all throughout your entire day…

This is one of my most prolific exercise hacks since first creating this fitness method. If you can’t box separate time, then stick that workout in between your daily life…

Feel free to read my WordPress blog published in 2014 titled “excuse destroyed. I don’t have time” where I go into further information on how I came to start working with short duration, sequences, and how that small shift changed a huge part of the game for me.

You can try this at home right now.

Pick a simple exercise move, put on a piece of music, start with the binary rhythm pattern… 1-2-1-2 and try to maintain that that rhythmic precision over the course of one single minute

And then simply pay attention to your body and how it reacts to that increase in demand; learn how to work within that sweet spot range and do some really amazing work inside and out!

Stay on beat!
