Frequently asked questions

There are two main important factors.

The first is your understanding of movements - can you perform the majority of movements and understand the technique enough to perform them when training on your own?

Secondly, we encourage you to have done 6 months of affiliate classes first.

If you go on holiday, rather than stressing about still getting the programme in - enjoy the holiday and relax. When you are back to training, follow the programme on the current day but start with lower volume set ranges to gradually get yourself back into training.

Yes, we have a Gymnastics bias track that is focused towards athletes who want to develop those skills and either don’t yet have the capacity or their capacity isn’t big enough to be able to do those skills in WODs.

If it’s a case of being unable to do 3-5 movements, then we can give you substitute movements to work around it, or you can make the call yourself. Bear in mind the stimulus and also think what is the next closest thing you can do to the movement you are having to change.

If you are more limited than that, then we’d recommend working with an individual coach to help programme around your situation.

Yes, quite a few of the athletes that follow the programme do this. It’s important to keep a social side to your training, so if keeping the odd class in your schedule helps with motivation, then go ahead.

We recommend replacing the metcon for that day with the class workout, just be aware of the movement involved in the class WOD and what you have done the day before or day after.

JST Class our affiliate program aligns with JST Athlete so workouts in the class program and JST Athlete are the same or similar multiple times per week.

We have additional programs which can help keep you in training around your injury. These will allow you to pivot and keep progressing in other areas. Drop us a message for suggestions on what best to do here, so we can help set some goals and help you get the most out of this tough training period.

We also recommend following a rehab programme from your physio alongside.

With JST Athlete, you also get Access All Areas. So if you feel like there isn't something being covered within the program you can add a one-off program to your Fitr account and look to include it within your training. JST Athlete is pretty all encompassing with what's within it, but if you feel like you do need additional work to address a movement then please let us know and we can look to steer you in the right direction.

All JST athletes get access to all programs for free.

YES! We have a great team of coaches that offer individualised coaching! If you are thinking about switching to an Individual program, please let us know.

This is something we offer to anyone who believes they need it, whether it be to tailor the program more specifically to their needs because of strengths/weaknesses, schedule, or for additional accountability.

For certain competitions and qualifiers, we prepare warm ups and our coaches will be there to support you during the day(s) competition.

The competitions that our coaches will attend will be the ones with a greater number of our athletes. These are great opportunities to meet other athletes and coaches, become immersed in the JST Community and meet potential partners for training and competitions.

Coaches will be on hand throughout the competition to help settle nerves, provide warm-ups or discuss workout plans so you can just focus on the executing and competing aspect.

Some of the competitions we recommend include but aren't limited to:

• Graft events: Ragnarok, Arnold Fitness Games, Winter Soldiers etc

• Strength in Depth - UK Championships, SID Origins -

• Proving Grounds -

• Marbella Championships

• Rainhill Trials
