Build it. Burn it.

You’re already active. You’re already lifting and nothing is changing - so you figure you need to do more. More workouts, more cardio, more restriction. But more isn’t the answer. A better signal is. Progressive overload tells your muscles to grow. More activity just makes you tired. All you need is dumbbells, three full body workouts per week, and a program that gives your body the right signal.

Here’s the structure: two different workouts come with the Build it. Burn it challenge that you’ll repeat for three weeks each. Why? Because that’s how you get stronger. Progressive overload isn’t some fitness buzzword - it’s literally how your muscles grow. You need time with the same movements to add reps and then weight.

Here’s what happens when you do the same exercises for multiple weeks:

Week 1 - Learning movement patterns, finding your working weights, nervous system is figuring out which muscles to fire, when to fire them, and how to coordinate everything smoothly

Week 2 - Reduced soreness, improved performance, strength building starts

Week 3 - Peak performance where maximum gains occur

Two blocks. Six weeks. That’s the whole formula.

This isn’t a newbie thing - this is everyone’s timeline, no matter how many years you’ve been lifting. It’s exactly why even the most experienced lifters (myself included!) get sore when they switch to a new workout.

Every challenge includes brand new workouts. Some exercises repeat across programs - that’s not an oversight, that’s the point. Research shows the same foundational movements move the needle for women. What changes is the challenge you bring to them. More reps. Heavier weights. That’s progressive overload.

And here’s the part that matters most - you’re not figuring this out alone. I’m in the community with you every single day of the 42 days - answering questions, calling out wins, and keeping you on track. Your Cee-sters are there too, doing the exact same workouts, cheering each other on, and showing up even when it’s hard. Whether you’re in your basement or at the gym, you’ve got support.

Is nutrition included?

If you want a simple “tell me what to eat” guide, you can add Solin’s 4-week Meal Plan and Nutrition Bundle - a 122-page guide with vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and non-dairy options, plus a 30-day money-back guarantee. Inside the private community, I also share information on calories, macros, and food tracking so you can set your calories based on your goal - whether that’s building muscle, or building muscle and losing fat at the same time.

What if I go on vacation?

Simply pause when you need to and resume where you left off. You have lifetime access to the Build it. Burn it challenge - no expiry, no catch. Repeat it as many times as you want, whenever you want.

FAQs

Workouts run 45-60 minutes depending on your rest between sets
Built for women who’ve lifted before - even if it’s been a while
Every exercise includes demos with verbal cues from me - these are not follow-along workouts
Start with whatever weights you’ve been using - the right weight is completely individual to your current strength level

You’re not lifting to stay the same. You want to see it - in the mirror, in your clothes, in the way you carry yourself. Six weeks with the right system and you will.

This programme has been perfect for me - I’ve always maintained a high level of physical activity and I wanted something to compliment my karate training. These workouts are very simple but they are still technically challenging, and I’m already feeling important postural improvements with knees and shoulders. 10 out of 10!!

I love the 3weeks of the same exercises and all the logic and data given to us to understand why we do what we do. The community is the backbone of this challenge. The constant flow of education from Cee is amazing and so valuable. Demos are good and the format is easy to follow. This is my 6th challenge with Cee .

This program is taking me to the next level and I'm only at the beginning of the second week. I followed Cheryl Coulumbe's @liftwithCee videos on YouTube 3x a week for 8 months (30 & 40 minute sessons) before starting the Build it. Burn it. Program. Her program coaching tips are straightforward and changed how I push myself at each interval. Cheryl's coaching changed lifting from a physical challenge to a mental challenge. When you know, you know. I crossed over and I'm not going back. This is a topnotch program! Other things that enhanced this experience as a 59 year old woman - I do yoga before lifting. Also seeing Midi Health online for hormone health as I have a good primary care doctor, but needed hormone specialist who is more concerned with how I feel than a fixed, min-max range. No more feeling like I'm begging for help. Kicking up my testosterone prescription I no longer feel held back physically.

My second challenge and it’s brilliant (again)! There are no gimmicks or fancy moves. Cee has tested the programme and is the best possible advertisement showing what can be achieved. Three workouts a week is perfect allowing me to give my all to life as well as training 💪🏻 so sensible to have the weekends off! Cheryl gives relevant scientific advice and great tips on how to manage your diet and training. The information comes thick and fast and always when you really need it. The community is wonderfully supportive too. The Ceesters are an amazing group, always ready with a virtual hug or wise words when you need them. I’m 65 soon and loving feeling fit, strong and ready for anything. Highly recommended!

I am absolutely Loving this app! I hesitated joining because I didn’t know If I would like it since it is not a follow along video. Funny enough now I can’t imagine doing a follow along video. This app gives you a detailed quick video for each exercise which I find extremely valuable for checking my form. I can’t believe how much more I am pushing myself now that I have joined this challenge. The community it comes with is wonderful and reminds you that you are not alone. The information that you have at your fingertips in regards to calories, health and how to set your goals not to mention how this plan works and why is priceless. If you are wanting to get your body in better shape but feel lost I highly recommend this app. Worth every penny!

This is my third challenge with Cheryl and these programs are the exact structure I needed that would help me achieve my goals while fitting my lifestyle and stage of life. I am post menopause and was feeling so frustrated because it seemed like all the things I had done to stay fit, lean, and strong in the past weren't working anymore. I was discouraged by the 15 pound weight gain I had experienced, seemingly overnight when I hit menopause. Cheryl understands the midlife woman's plight and gives the coaching and education to help women like me feel empowered instead of helpless. Since the beginning of my first challenge I have lost 15 pounds, many inches, and have begun to see muscle definition that I've never seen before. And I achieved my goal of looking fabulous in my dress at my daughter's wedding last weekend. Every midlife woman should be doing this program!

Another awesome program by Cheryl - her workouts are designed brilliantly to efficiently target total full body, only 3x per week allowing me to keep up with long distance running at the same time. The moves are basic and that’s by design - no fluff or fancy choreography, just pure muscle building. I’ve had great results following her coaching for the last 4 months, and lifting much heavier than I ever did lifting for the past 6 years.
