Exciting Updates to Our Programming!
At the Cove, we believe that top-notch programming is the foundation of an exceptional class experience. It provides structure, progression, and a clear path to improving strength, stamina, and overall fitness. For the past two and a half years, we’ve followed CompTrain’s programming, and it has served us incredibly well—helping our community achieve impressive gains in both strength and conditioning, with our lowest injury rate thus far. We’re grateful for everything CompTrain has provided, but like anything, there’s always room for improvement.
After a decade of refining our approach at the Cove, we know that variation is a key to continued growth. Over the years, we’ve worked with different programming styles, each bringing unique strengths. One of our biggest takeaways is that sticking with a single system for too long can create biases in the programming. So to keep evolving and ensuring the best possible experience for our members, we believe it’s time for a programming shift.
After carefully evaluating multiple options, we’re excited to announce that, starting next week, we’ll be transitioning to Mayhem Programming. Mayhem has been a leader in affiliate programming for years, and their philosophy aligns closely with what we’ve been doing—while offering a fresh take. You can expect the same emphasis on dedicated strength work, which is essential for building long-term fitness. But you’ll also see more structured bodyweight exercises, skill development, and an even broader variety of movements. This also means greater variation in time domains, movement patterns, and loading strategies—keeping workouts engaging and focused on individual and collective progress.
As always, we will continue to tailor the programming to our community’s needs, Coach Carlos, Coach John, and Coach Brian will be reviewing workouts weekly and making adjustments as needed. We understand that change can feel uncertain, but we see this as an exciting opportunity for all of us to grow together.
Get ready for fresh challenges, new progressions, and continued gains!
