Spring 2026 Challenge

Spring 2026 Challenge

Get started today!

This 6-week program is designed to help you build real strength, create consistency, and feel confident in your body again—without extremes or starting over every Monday. This is not a quick fix. It’s a structured, progressive strength program built to help you create lasting change. Over the next 6 weeks, we’ll focus on progressive overload, which means you’ll see many of the same lifts each week. This is intentional. Instead of constantly changing workouts, your goal is to: • Improve your form • Increase your weights • Control your tempo (especially slowing down the eccentric) • Push closer to failure when appropriate This is how you build muscle, increase metabolism, and actually transform your body. WHAT TO EXPECT: • Strength-focused workouts designed to build lean muscle • 40–45 minute workouts that are efficient and effective • Gym + home options • A program designed for busy women and moms RESULTS COME FROM THE BASICS DONE WELL: The women who see the best results aren’t doing more—they’re doing the fundamentals consistently: • Prioritizing protein and whole foods • Fueling their bodies (not under-eating) • Hitting daily movement (steps matter more than you think) • Showing up even when motivation is low CARDIO & ACTIVITY: I recommend aiming for 8–10k steps per day whenever possible. You can also add in 20–30 minutes of low-intensity movement (like walking) to support recovery and fat loss. A NOTE FROM ME: I created this program to help you build strength that lasts beyond these 6 weeks. My goal isn’t just for you to finish—it’s for you to build momentum, confidence, and habits you actually keep. You don’t need to be perfect. You just need to stay consistent. Let’s get to work.

About Eliza Katoa

Online personal trainer

Hey, I’m Eliza Katoa! Thank you for being here! I’m a mom, wife, certified personal trainer, entrepreneur, and one of seven kids. I’m obsessed with all things fitness, lazy beach vacations, family time, sushi, and homemade hamburgers. I’m so happy you’re here! My mission is to help you find joy and empowerment in your fitness journey. I believe in you, but it all starts with believing in yourself. Believing that you can overcome self-doubt and embrace a lifestyle of healthy habits that will create long-lasting confidence and fulfillment. 
 I created the Katoa Fitness app to foster a community of people actively pursuing their personal best. Having guided thousands of women and men through their respective health journeys, nothing is more fulfilling than clients stepping into their power and changing their lives.  My love for working out was born in my early morning team workouts in college. I had the amazing opportunity to play D1 PAC-12 volleyball. As a college athelte, I had access to an incredible team that consisted of a strength coach, physical therapist, trainer, dietician, sports scientist and sports psychologist who inspired me to get into the health and fitness industry. They helped me realize that health is about more than just working out. It’s about being balanced physically, mentally, emotional and spiritually. I graduated and began my career working for two different gyms doing 1-on-1 and group training. I decided to start my own group training business, Katoa Fitness. From there, I trained hundreds of inspiring people and learned so much as a trainer. There’s no question that the most fulfilling thing I get to witness each day is seeing my clients push past self doubt and work towards becoming the best and healthiest version of themselves. Making the decision to work towards a healthier you is hard, but here you are. I’d love to be part of your journey. All you have to do is step into your power and we can make it happen, together!

Frequently asked questions

Why are the workouts so similar each week?
This program is built around progressive overload. Repeating the same lifts allows your body to adapt so you can lift heavier, improve form, and build real strength over time. Constantly changing workouts might feel fun, but it’s not the most effective way to see results.
How heavy should I be lifting?
You should be lifting challenging weights—especially on your final sets. A good rule of thumb is finishing a set with only 1–3 reps left in the tank. If it feels too easy, it probably is. Don’t be afraid to push yourself safely.
What if I don’t have time to complete the full workout?
Do what you can. Focus on your main compound lifts first—those will give you the most return. Consistency over perfection always wins. A shorter, focused workout is still incredibly effective.
Can I add cardio to this program?
Yes. I recommend prioritizing daily movement first—aim for 8–10k steps per day. You can also add 20–30 minutes of low-intensity cardio (like walking) if you want additional fat loss or recovery support. Just make sure it’s not taking away from your strength training.
What should I be focusing on with my nutrition?
Keep it simple: prioritize protein, eat mostly whole foods, and fuel your body consistently. Undereating will work against your progress—especially when you’re strength training. Focus on building sustainable habits, not extremes.
