Who is this program for?
Anyone that wants to build confidence in their body and movement, at any fitness level –
If you are new to working out, haven’t worked out in forever, or want to be fit enough to compete at your local fitness competitions… we have a daily workout for you!
I know exactly what it’s like to feel out of control and not confident about my body.
We have developed a program that allows you to take back control over your body and be confident about what steps to take to get there!
Why this will work for you…
Each of our workouts is posted 5 days a week (M/T/W/F/Sa), and you get access to ALL of them. You start where you feel comfortable! And we are here to help.
- Level 1 workout: beginner – All you need is a $30 set of bands (and/or a few small dumbbells), for people just getting started.

- Level 3 workout: intermediate/advanced – DB Program – All you need is a $30 set of bands and a few dumbbells. Great for at-home workouts (or RVers) with just a few pieces of equipment you can get into amazing shape (and can be scaled to any level).
- Level 4 workout: intermediate/advanced – full home gym – Barbells and dumbbells needed. Full gym with advanced fitness movements (weight lifting, gymnastics, and high volume cardio).

- Functional bodybuilding – If you want to build some serious muscle with minimal equipment ( dumbbells and bands), this will get you pumped!
- Daily mobility – We all need to cool down and relax, so we have you covered with a daily 5-10 min session of stretching or breathing exercises.
And that’s not all!
You also get unlimited access to your coach via Slack/email to optimize your diet, get movement videos reviewed, ask questions, and much more! You literally have a world class coach at your side helping you meet your goals and avoid mistakes. Keep reading for more detailed into.

What does joining The Get Better Project look like…
How much time does that program take?
For most days you will only have to schedule around 30 mins for the start to finish of each workout. And some days will even be much shorter, but 30 mins is a good bet.
HAVE FUN!
EAT HEALTHY!
FEEL SUPPORTED!
LOOK like your best you!
**The Details**
1. Daily workouts – that can be done at-home (or anywhere), complete with coaching videos and descriptions that make them easy and fun to complete. Our workout methodology follows exactly what I do daily… constantly varied, multi joint (usually), and can include high intensity, intervals, bodybuilding, and everything in-between to get you into the best shape possible!
2. Weekly Athlete Check-Ins, where we provide coaching on stress, sleep, bumps and bruises, nutrition, and much more! This sets our program apart from other programs. We realized that getting great results and loving life goes beyond just getting a good workout.
3. Private super fun and supportive Slack community where we have challenges, share recipes, and you can get all of your questions answered at any time.
4. Nutrition Coaching – We set you up on the MyFitnessPal app using your ideal body weight and macro nutrient approach to dial in exactly how much you should be eating. And then we follow up with Weekly Check-Ins to ensure that you get exactly what you need to keep moving toward your goals.
This is why most programs fail, you don’t stay the same week after week and month after month. Nutrition is a moving target for most people, and we help you hit a bullseye!
5. Access to all of our other training programs (Get your 1st muscle up, nutrition 101, etc.). We are regularly growing the Get Better Project training program library, and as a member you get access to everything!

Our Story…
4 years ago Joe and his wife Emily set out on an adventure to live in a Sprinter Van/RV with a goal of seeing all of the US National Parks, all while staying in OUTSTANDING physical shape. So, they set off from their home city of Seattle with 4 dumbbells, 2 kettlebells, jump ropes, and a set of exercise bands.
After 1 year of writing and doing their own dumbbell/kettlebell workouts, it was clear that their program worked. In fact, it worked better than even they expected, and it was clear that you didn’t need a full gym of equipment (or even a gym) to get into amazing shape.
And that’s how the Get Better Project was formed, and to this day, Joe and Emily do all of the workouts right along side everyone in the program from wherever they are in the world.

Competing in the CrossFit Games was an amazing experience but I never expected that this day by day, little by little program was giving me the skills and strength I needed to end up in 1st place in the 65+ women’s category! Thanks Joe and The Get Better Project.

I have never met a coach that was more invested in your overall health than Joe. Not only does he have many years of experience coaching, but his knowledge of nutrition and how it applies to your lifestyle has been a game changer in how I approached my daily habits and training. I would recommend Joe’s programming to anyone wanting to change their overall health and how they view fitness.”
– Stacy
Joe started coaching me back in 2012, at my third Crossfit class. More than any other coach, Joe taught me to fish – he helped me understand that fitness is a constant cycle of gathering feedback and applying the things that we learn. His coaching led me on a journey that has now gone far beyond Crossfit and continues to this day. As a result, I will be fit for the rest of my life.”
– Tyler
For the past five years, Joe has served as my coach, training partner, mentor, and friend. As a coach, Joe goes out of his way to provide any extra attention you may need, regardless of skill level. Countless times, Joe has opened the gym early or stayed late so that I could get some extra practice on a certain skill. Unlike many in his profession, Joe has an incredible ability to listen and make you feel heard as a person. Joe has always been willing to consider and implement outside training methods I have brought to his attention. Most importantly, when things get difficult, Joe’s calm balanced demeanor serves as excellent support. Major roadblocks have been quickly deconstructed with Joe’s help, guidance, and knowledge.”
– Peter
When I first moved to Seattle I was without a coach and was seeking some guidance in my training since I felt lost. I consider myself very lucky to have found Joe only a few short weeks after moving. I’ve never met anyone that had so much confidence in me, especially when I had no confidence in myself. He always encouraged me to do better, to try harder and to excel in every aspect of life in and outside the gym. When I needed help I knew I could count on him to give me advice, to work with me through any challenges I faced, to plan a diet i could follow, etc.etc.etc. The overall benefits of working with him and knowing him in general have truly been endless, and continue to be. Just a short list of all my accomplishments since working with Joe have been – Lost 15 lbs that have not come back (and won’t thanks to his help), increased muscle and strength overall, first muscle up, first bar muscle up, first strict handstand push up, and increased work capacity in those challenging movements and in general. I am in the best shape of my life and a large part of that is due to Joe being my coach, he has been instrumental in my progress as a person and an athlete and I honestly can’t thank him enough. Joe will meet you where you are and help you excel because not only does he truly care about your progress but it is his passion. Whenever I have doubts about something I always think, what would Joe do? 🙂 Thanks so much for everything Joe!”

Joe Bauer is a true coach when it comes to health and wellness. I use the phrase “health and wellness” because those are the pillars of his approach. In the 5+ years I have worked with Joe he has never dabbled in “get-fit quick” ideals, but uses a lifestyle approach to achieve long term goals. Joe is knowledgeable and takes pride in continuing to grow his skillset in the fitness sector. From nutrition to mental well-being, Joe is passionate about fitness and it shows through the energy and enthusiasm that he brings into every situation.
– Alexis
His easy going, friendly personality creates a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere which makes each challenging workout achievable. Joe’s professionalism, extensive knowledge, and commitment to his work and clients, provides the perfect scenario for success; ultimately setting a foundation for a new, healthier lifestyle! He is the real deal in an industry full of wanna-bees and is the standard by which any fitness expert should be measured.
