why so little equipment

Using advanced computer modeling BUILD FIRST compared over 2500 exercises ranging from simple bodyweight movements to complex machinery and determined that only a small number of versatile tools are required to build strength and metabolic capacity with optimal efficiency, speed and results. No complex machines, and no gym memberships required.

The four core tools in the BUILD FIRST System allow you to train every major muscle group in the body safely and effectively so that you can focus on what matters most: building strength for life.
