Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to use a calendar to go through the Autoimmune Strong Program?
Not at all. The calendars are not a requirement, so you can always ignore them and go through the program on your own. They are designed as an option, to help support you and show you how to begin. But be mindful if you choose to go on your own, and make sure you don’t push too hard, especially in the beginning.
What if the daily calendar assignments don’t fit my schedule? For example, what if I want to take Saturday as a rest day?
The calendars are by no means set in stone. You can always manipulate the calendar to fit your schedule or your body’s needs. If you need an additional rest day (or two or three) don’t hesitate to take them and adjust the calendar accordingly. If you feel like you want to focus on a certain body part but the calendar puts you on a different body part, you can switch them. It’s up to you to make the changes you feel are best.
How do I know if the calendar I am using is the right one for me?
If you are able to go through the calendar consistently, without having exercise-induced symptom flare-ups, then this means the calendar is going at the right pace for you. If this is happening for you, then great! You can stick with the calendar you are using or try the higher-level one. But if you are having flare-ups, exhaustion or living with an increased amount of stress, I always recommend downgrading the calendar. It is always better to start slow and progress over time. There is no “good or bad” calendar, you want to work with the one that works best for your body. The goal is to feel good!
How do I find and use these calendars?
You can find the calendars here!
They are clickable, so you can go directly to the video of the day.
Or you can print a hard copy here and use these stickers to help you track your progress.
How do I use the calendar if I am doing the Cardio Party?
I recommend that you put aside the calendar and follow the instructions in the Cardio Party.
