THE FOUR ELEMENTS
OF THE ULTIMATE BODY COACHING
(UBC) 50+ Online 10-Week Course
​
CARDIO CONDITIONING
FITNESS KICKBOXING, BOXING, WALKING OR RUNNING
Our UBC Fitness Kickboxing classes teach you how to punch and kick with confidence and real power—while delivering a full-body workout that burns more calories than traditional cardio.
But that’s just the beginning. Each session also improves coordination, flexibility, balance, focus, and practical self-defense skills, giving you a stronger body and a sharper mind with every workout.
All Cardio classes are self-paced. So you can build your strength and indurance overtime at a pace that works for you.
​
STRENGTH CONDITIONING
STRENGTH BANDS & WEIGHT TRAINING
Building lean muscle is a core focus of UBC 50+. You’ll have two effective ways to increase strength: follow our guided upper- and lower-body workouts using strength bands, or use our clear, easy-to-follow instruction to elevate your weight-training sessions at any fitness gym.
Our approach is designed specifically for adults 50+, helping you build strength safely and confidently. Every workout emphasizes proper form, joint-friendly movement, and steady progress—so you feel stronger, more capable, and more energized in your daily life.
NUTRITIONAL POINT SYSTEM
HIGH-PROTEIN, BALANCED APPROACH
We take all the guesswork out of nutrition. The UBC Nutritional Point System has been a member favorite since it launched in 2000—and we’ve updated it over the years while keeping the same simple, effective structure. It’s an easy-to-follow guide that helps you understand what to eat and when to eat it, especially as our nutritional needs change with age.
COMMUNITY & FUN
FITNESS AND EMPOWERMENT CLUB​
We want your 10-week journey to be something you truly enjoy—and something that delivers the results you’re looking for.
We don’t see UBC as just a program; we see it as a community you belong to.
Throughout the course, we’ll host weekly workouts at parks and beaches around the Tampa Bay area. If you’re local, you’re invited to join us in person. If not, you can follow along from home as every session is streamed live.
Plus, you’ll get access to our new Fitness and Empowerment online magazine—packed with helpful tips, inspiration, and content designed specifically for staying strong and active as we age.
