Flying Fit
FOUNDATIONS
Your starting point. Structured, free, and built for AIPA members.
Foundations is a 16-week program delivered through Lumin — the same technology platform used by elite athletes around the world — designed to work with your flying demands from day one.
Why Foundations
Getting started is the hardest part — especially with a roster that never sits still. Foundations removes the guesswork. Every session is built around what you actually have available: a commercial gym, a hotel room, or the floor of your home.
This isn't about doing everything at once. It's about building consistency first, so the habit holds even when the roster doesn't.
And it's built by experienced, PhD-qualified coaches, delivered on the same platform elite athletes use to train.
How Foundations Works
Choose the version that matches where you're starting from. You'll get a 16-week structured plan, with sessions designed to fit your available equipment and schedule, building in intensity as you adapt.
Choose Your Program
New to Training
Built for pilots starting a structured training habit for the first time. Clear, achievable sessions that build confidence from week one.
Returning to Gym
Slightly more advanced for pilots getting back into training after a break - readjusting to training again rather than starting from zero.
Home
No gym required. Sessions built around floor work and resistance bands — designed for the space and constraints of the hotel room, or home.
