Coming June 10th: 25 Minute Speed Train by Joel Freeman
May 27, 2025
If you’re trying to work out but not seeing the results you want, or you’re short on time but still want to get strong, build endurance, and train consistently, Joel Freeman has the answer.
All aboard the 25 Minute Speed Train—your 8-week, step-by-step strength plan to help you make real progress, no matter your starting point.
Joel trains you from his home gym, where his efficient workouts and expert cues help you execute every move with perfect form and minimal equipment. No more wasting time, wondering what to do, or giving up in frustration. This is training that keeps you on the right track.
How does 25 Minute Speed Train work?
Joel delivers full-body results in just 25 minutes a day, 7 days a week, for 8 weeks. Using Targeted Volume Training, he combines time under tension, tempo-based intervals, and progressive overload to build strength and endurance efficiently. No more guesswork. No wasted time.
All you need are light, medium, and heavy dumbbells, plus Resistance Loops. Joel leaves no muscle untouched while helping you sculpt a balanced physique as you perfect your form—without overtraining or injury.
No matter where you’re starting from, you can finally make your goals a reality.
Next stop: results!
What makes 25 Minute Speed Train different?
It’s Joel Freeman’s most efficient program yet. You’ll train for time, not fixed rep counts. This lets you tune into how the movement feels and ensures you focus on form and quality.
As you progress, the workouts do too—challenging you with longer work intervals and shorter rest periods. It’s a program that adapts and grows right along with you.
Where Joel’s other programs like LIIFT4® or LIIFT MORE™ incorporate HIIT into many of the workouts, 25 Minute Speed Train blends strength training with metabolic conditioning to maximize results. (There’s a cardio element, but no high-intensity intervals.)
Also, LIIFT4 and LIIFT MORE are rep-based workouts that encourage heavy lifting. With the time-based intervals in 25 Minute Speed Train, you may find that you need to lift lighter. Don’t worry—you’ll still feel the burn and build strength and endurance!
It’s still Joel’s signature style, but it’s designed for people with packed schedules who want real progress, fast.
What are the workouts like?
Joel created a comprehensive 8-week schedule that includes 48 unique workouts plus 2 recovery sessions that alternate every week.
You’ll train 7 days a week: 5 strength, 1 core cardio, and 1 flexibility and mobility. Each 25-minute workout targets upper, lower, core, or full body, and you’ll hit every muscle group—including the smaller ones—at least twice per week.
The result? A total-body transformation in less time, with a structure that’s as sustainable as it is effective.
Upper Body
Build strength and muscular endurance in your back, shoulders, chest, biceps, and triceps.
Lower Body
Define and strengthen your quadriceps, glutes, hamstrings, and calves.
Total Body
Compound and complex movements help build strength, stamina, and stability.
Core Cardio
Work your abs, obliques, and lower back while burning a ton of calories.
Flexibility & Mobility
Increase joint range of motion, flexibility, and mobility while promoting active recovery.
Who is 25 Minute Speed Train for?
This program was made for anyone who wants results but doesn’t have hours to spare. It’s a great fit for people who enjoy a challenge, are looking for structure, and want to train consistently without burning out.
As Joel puts it, “Time. There seems to be less of it these days, amiright? I wanted to give everyone an opportunity to still get an effective workout and reach their health and fitness goals.”
Whether you’ve been lifting for a while or you’re newer to strength training, this program meets you where you are. Joel’s approach is all about building lean muscle, boosting endurance, and improving form.
