Upper Body Challenge is the only one of Daily Burn’s 69 programs whose name — and workouts — target the upper body specifically, at 20 sessions tagged Strength and Cardio. Here’s what the program covers, who it’s built for, and how it compares to the library’s other body-region-focused programs.
What Is Upper Body Challenge?
Upper Body Challenge is a 20-workout program in Daily Burn’s on-demand library, tagged Strength and Cardio. At 20 workouts, it runs well past the library’s roughly 12-workout average — closer to a multi-week block than a short program.
Who Upper Body Challenge Is Built For
Upper Body Challenge is tagged Intermediate and Advanced only — it doesn’t carry a Beginner tier, so it’s built for members who already have some strength-training experience rather than a first program. If you’re newer to training, Daily Burn’s full program directory covers several beginner-tagged options to build a base first.
How It Compares to Daily Burn’s Other Body-Region Programs
Daily Burn’s library has a handful of programs named around a specific body region rather than a general training style: Upper Body Challenge, Booty Burn Challenge, Summer Abs Challenge, and Core. Of those, Upper Body Challenge is the only one built around the upper body — the others target glutes, abs, and core, respectively. It’s also one of seven programs in the library tagged Strength and Cardio only (no Mobility, Core, or Flexibility tag alongside), a set that otherwise includes LIT: Low Impact Training, 20-Minute Total Body Strength, LTF, Cardio Sculpt, Inferno, and Cardio Burn — Upper Body Challenge’s 20 workouts sit toward the longer end of that group.
What to Expect From the Program
Across 20 workouts, expect strength work focused on the upper body paired with cardio conditioning, at Intermediate-to-Advanced intensity throughout — there’s no Beginner-tier scaling built in, so the sessions assume you can already handle standard strength-training loads and cardio pacing.
