What’s included

Build with Becky combines evidence-based strength and conditioning with a one-of-a-kind web application to guide you every step of the way. Most importantly, it meets you where you are by helping you achieve life-changing results at a sustainable pace.

Evidence-based workouts

  • Every 5 weeks, receive a new strength-training program that builds on the progress you’ve made.
  • Each week includes 3 workouts designed to work for you, regardless of experience or available equipment.
  • Exercises and patterns are based on the latest NSCA-backed research.
  • Build mind-muscle connection by listening to your body and working toward a target rate of perceived exertion.

A brand new kind of fitness app

  • Program overviews, interactive workouts, and mindful moments reflecting on the journey so far.
  • Easy-to-follow exercise videos, practical form advice, equipment details, and a place to take notes.
  • Alternatives whenever an exercise isn’t working for you—switch before or during a workout.
  • No gimmicks or upsells. Manage your subscription and cancel at any time.

Respect for your autonomy

  • Every exercise offers full-gym, home-equipment, and bands-and-bodyweight variations.
  • Each program begins with onboarding and ends with a bonus grace week, so there’s no rush to catch up.
  • Choose 1, 2, or 3 workouts per week and go at your own pace.
  • You are enough as you are. Build with Becky will never nag, penalize, or shame you.

“I’m a lifter.”

“I feel grace.”

Why Becky is Better

Becky Searls is definitely not another influencer, and she’s more than a personal trainer. Her experience in education, embrace of evidence-based research, and personable judgment-free approach sets her apart in an industry famous for baseless hype and scammy practices.

After more than a decade as an accomplished foreign language teacher, Becky truly has the heart of an educator. When she learns something important, her first thought is how best to share it with others.

That’s what Better with Becky is: the place she translates cutting-edge science into practical tools and everyday advice for the rest of us.

Build with Becky will give you a great workout, but you won’t believe how much you’ll learn along the way—or how many insights connect with other parts of your life.
