What to Do After Body Beast: Your Next Steps for Maximizing Gains and Pushing Limits

So, you’ve just crushed your first round of Body Beast. You’ve sculpted muscle, increased your strength, and pushed your limits. But now that you’ve reached the end of this beastly journey, you might be asking yourself: What’s next?

The good news is that whether you’re looking to build on your gains, challenge yourself in new ways, or maintain your hard-earned muscle, there are several excellent programs on BODi (Beachbody on Demand) to consider. Here are four paths you can take:

1. Dig Deeper

If you’re ready to push yourself further and transform your body, it’s time to Dig Deeper. This program combines intense, all-out strength training with a focus on total-body recomposition. It’s designed to help you build lean muscle mass and reduce body fat, revealing a stronger, shredded physique.

Here’s why Dig Deeper might be your next step:

Total-Body Recomposition: This program reshapes your body by targeting every muscle group, helping you build muscle while shedding fat.
Proven Lifting Techniques: With a variety of lifting methods, you’ll continuously challenge yourself to lift heavier and reach new personal bests.
Peak Physical and Mental Strength: Dig Deeper not only focuses on physical strength but also on mental toughness, pushing you to break through barriers.

Shaun T has transformed into a professional bodybuilder (check out recent photos) and his passion for helping others succeed makes lifting approachable and rewarding, so if you’re ready to lift heavy, challenge yourself, and transform your body, Dig Deeper is your go-to program.

2. LIIFT More

If you loved the lifting aspects of Body Beast but want to explore a fresh approach, LIIFT More is an excellent option. This program, led by Joel Freeman, combines heavy lifting with high-intensity interval training (HIIT) to give you the best of both worlds.

Here’s why LIIFT More could be your next step:

Hybrid Training: This program balances lifting with cardio, helping you build muscle while staying lean.
Shorter Workouts: With most sessions lasting around 30-40 minutes, LIIFT More is efficient without compromising on intensity.
Versatility: The program includes a variety of lifts and exercises, keeping your body guessing and avoiding plateaus.

If you’re looking for a program that continues to emphasize strength but with added variety and efficiency, LIIFT More will keep you motivated and challenged.

3. LIIFT 4

If you’re a fan of flexibility and want a program that allows you to balance fitness with your busy life, LIIFT 4 could be your ideal follow-up. Also led by Joel Freeman, this program combines strength training and HIIT in a four-day-per-week format.

What makes LIIFT 4 stand out:

4. Another Round of Body Beast

If you’re hungry for more gains and want to see how far you can push your strength, diving into another round of Body Beast might be your best option. The beauty of repeating this program is that you already have a solid foundation. You’re familiar with the exercises, the pacing, and the structure.

But here’s the twist—use your first round as a benchmark. Focus on improving your performance across the board:

Increase Weights: Aim to lift heavier with each session. Look at your worksheets (hopefully, you used my improved Body Beast worksheets) from round one and challenge yourself to beat those numbers. Be sure to print a new set of my famous Body Beast workout sheets!
Perfect Your Form: With the exercises ingrained in your muscle memory, you can now pay extra attention to form and technique.
Adjust Nutrition: Fine-tune your nutrition plan to match your new goals, whether that’s bulking up further or cutting to reveal more definition.

If you’re passionate about seeing how much stronger you can become, another round of Body Beast with a focus on improvement could be just what you need.

5. 25 Minute Speed Train
