CHALLENGE SCHEDULE

My monthly challenges are for everyone, but they will also push you to your limits! Every challenge includes both a GYM & DUMBBELL program. So you can grind it out at the gym or in your basement with a set of DBs.

Also Included: Private Group Access w/ Daily Communication, Weekly Zoom Calls, Nutrition & Supplement Guides, & $1000 in prizes for the winner!


About The Program

4 Weeks, 5 Days Per Week
Workout Duration: 45-60 Minutes
Gym Program & Dumbbell-Only Program with Each Challenge

All of my programs are designed to create lean muscle, shred body fat, and build athleticism, all while working on mobility. This program uses the same training principles I’ve used with my clients: Ryan Reynolds, Sebastian Stan, John Krasinski, Jake Gyllenhaal, Blake Lively, Emily Blunt, & Annie Hathaway.

Commonly asked Q: Why is it called a Challenge?
The Challenge is within yourself. I challenge you to do better - be better. To you that could mean more consistent workouts, healthier food choices, learning more about recovery, or all of the above. It is important to note the Challenge is not a competition amongst the other Challengers. Actually, it is quite the opposite. The Challengers are your team. They provide support, motivation, & accountability.


Every Challenge needs a winner!

I will get to know all of the CHALLENGERS through our Private Group and our weekly Zoom Calls.
The Winner will be selected for their dedication to the Challenge. 
To win you must post on Instagram about your experience at the completion of the Challenge.
I want to hear your story. Tag me @donsaladino. Use the hashtag #SuitUpWithDon #ChallengersAssemble

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: ARE CHALLENGES ON THE PLAYBOOK APP?

No. The program is delivered via Dropbox as a downloadable pdf. The Program is yours to own.

Q: WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE PROGRAMS AND THE CHALLENGES?

The Challenges all start on a specific date and you are completing the program with a community. The challenge 4-week program is yours to own. The 6-week programs are yours to own and complete whenever you like. There is no private community with the program purchase.

Q: HOW LONG IS THE CHALLENGE?

The Challenge is a 4-week program with a Pre- & Post-Assessment Test.

Q: WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT FROM THE ZOOM CALLS?

The Challenge includes weekly Zoom calls (4 calls total). The calls range from 1-2 hours based on the number of participants and questions asked. The main topics are fitness, nutrition, and general wellness.

Q: WHAT/WHERE IS THE PRIVATE GROUP?

You will receive an access email with a link to a private Facebook group. Each day I post the “Daily Video” and answer questions. The Challengers post their workouts, motivational content, and recipes. It is an incredible community that provides accountability, support, and motivation.

Q: WHAT IS THE BEST PART OF THE CHALLENGE?

In my opinion, the best part of the Challenges is the community of support.

Q: WHAT IS THE REFUND POLICY?

Upon purchase, you receive immediate access to the program, my nutrition guide, the exercise library, and all the bonuses. For this reason, I do not offer refunds on my Challenges. If for some reason you can’t complete the challenge, the program is yours to own and complete when you can!

Q: HOW DO I KNOW IF I AM COMPLETING THE EXERCISES PROPERLY?

Included with the program is an exercise demonstration library- a video tutorial of each exercise. You can also post your exercise in our private group so I can offer feedback on your form. 

Q: CAN A WORKOUT NOVICE PARTICIPATE?

My Challenges are for everyone! All skill levels are welcome and encouraged.

Q: WHAT DO I NEED?

I created this program because MOST of us do not have access to our gyms right now. This program only requires dumbbells. However, if you do not have access to dumbbells, I have included modifications.

Q: WHAT’S INCLUDED WITH THE CHALLENGE?

The 4-Week Gym AND Dumbbell Program, Exercise Demonstration Library, Nutrition Guide, Supplement Guide, BONUS Ab & Mobility Workouts, Private Facebook Group (daily messaging and accountability check-ins), & Weekly Zoom Calls.

Q: WHAT IS THE DECK OF PAIN?

The Deck of Pain is a Push-Up Challenge. We close out our Challenges with a Deck of Pain Zoom Call.  After 30 days together, it is a great way to finish off the challenge as a community.
