Max Built: A Complete Letdown
Title says it all. Max Built feels like it’s a rushed program that was just released to check a box. The no music has been mentioned, but it really plays a part. Sean T comes off very corny and his audio is equally the same.
The “actors” who are part of the workout are laughable, fake struggling to press 30lb dumbbells. It really makes you wish Tequila Kristen would make a comeback, if for nothing else to provide proper form and actually do the work.
The workout itself does not have flow and feels like a beginners program. I’m hopeful this picks up, but on first impressions, this is a far inferior program to Dig Deeper.
After almost 15 years, Body Beast still remains the best lifting program.

Interesting. I felt it was the same Sean T we got in other programs - he's just a corny dude. I can't speak for the actors , but I am pushing myself and for me 30 lbs is a lot. LoL!
Most of the programs don't have music or at least not meaningful enough for me to notice it or care about it. Liift4 is the only program I recall there being a separate playlist that I used, but it wasn't synced or anything.
Maybe I am a beginner though. So far, I don't hate it or love it, but it's giving me a workout. I'll keep this in mind.

Sean T has always been corny but a lot of people like that about his personality. I can’t imagine he’s any cornier than normal.

I love Shaun T’s personality! I am SO happy it’s not another program from Autumn or Joel. Ick.

I felt like today was a little slow and too much talking but I have done enough Shaun T workouts to know that it is going to get more challenging. It was just the first day...give it a chance.

I'm disappointed there is only one leg day/week.

How so? How do your chest muscles incorporate your legs? That doesn’t make sense.

First thing I thought of when I looked at the Max Built schedule was probably adding a 2nd leg day to one of the rest days.

I didn’t know this many people cared about music in a workout program until I joined this subreddit lmao

I love Shaun T. He's a big reason I got into fitness in the first place. This is the first programme I've done by him since og insanity and asylum. This program is perfect for achieving my current goals (get bigger). His personality is always the same either in programs or his social media.
Imo music would be a bit distracting since you're not looking at the screen for some of these exercises and need to follow the ques and timing.
It's also only been 1 day. There's still 9 weeks worth of workouts to do. Let the results speak for themselves if you stick to the program.

….how many of the workouts have you done? I am not a Shaun T fan (which is fine because he is a huge fan of himself), but his programs work. They get results if you put the work in. Kinda hard to compare results until you finish the program.

Then do the program and create your own opinion. Dude did one workout & you’re taking his word for it??

Ummm... It might be complete let down entertainment wise, but it's a workout program, we can only talk about the results once it's done.
