Build muscle. Lose fat. Around the shift — not against it. RX-RC adjusts your training, food, and recovery to how wrecked you actually are that day.

You spend your career helping others live healthier lives. Don't forget to invest in your own.
Gene Dinh, BSN, RN — ICU Nurse, Founder of Scrubs & Steel, Creator of RX-RC
As nurses, we feel pressure to work out before and after every shift. Four days is plenty — and the decision tree tells you exactly what to do, because decision fatigue gets real on your days off.
— Jaime, ICU RNThe RX-RC program is an investment that is well worth it. I can only work out 3 times a week and this program allows me to target every body group. My favorite part is tailoring the workout to how your body is feeling that day. The workouts are engaging and will definitely leave you sore. I can't recommend this program enough!
— Harbir D., ICU RNI personally use my own program to balance work and life. It gives me an easy plan for the day so I don't have to think ahead when work gets rough — and that's exactly why I spent so much time building this, with my background in powerlifting and training. Let it work for you. Fitness and healthcare shouldn't be a chore — it's part of taking care of the most important thing: you.
— Gene Dinh, BSN, ICU RNEight categories. Forty points. One number that tells you whether today is a day to push, or a day to protect. Try it — rate yourself honestly across a sample day.
This is the exact logic RX-RC walks you through, every single day you train — laid out for you, based on your real recovery.
The goal isn't perfection. It's choosing the right workout for today — in four steps, every time.
Working: your job is the priority, protect your recovery. Off: today is a training opportunity — calculate your Clinical Recovery Score.
Run the 8-category check above. Your score (0–40) tells you which of the four protocols applies today.
Upper A → Lower A → Upper B → Lower B, or Push → Legs → Pull → Shoulders. Repeat the cycle and adjust to your score.
Your tier sets the effort level. No guessing, no overriding it because you "feel like" training harder than your body can recover from.
Recovery guides the workout. The workout does not override recovery.
Pick the split that suits you and switch any time — the dashboard, recovery score and tracker follow whichever you're running. Built for clinicians balancing performance, recovery, and shift work. Repeat the cycle — rest whenever your shift schedule demands it.
Legs sits between the two upper sessions so your triceps and delts get a full session of recovery before Pull.
The beginner's section — focus, adapt, recover, progress, consistency, explained in plain terms before you touch a weight.
The 8-category, 40-point daily check-in that decides your training intensity for you, every single day.
A simple daily flow — are you working, what's your score, what to train, how hard to push.
Upper/Lower and PPL + Shoulders/Arms — eight sessions in total, with CRS-adjusted set and rep ranges for every recovery tier. Switch tracks whenever you want a change.
A real tracking sheet — shifts worked, sleep, training review, and next week's protocol, so progress isn't a guess.
RIR and load guidance that scales with you, so the program doesn't go stale at week three.
Every buyer gets the live member dashboard — check in daily, log every set, and watch recomposition happen on one page. Here's what it looks like in use.
Train as prescribed — full working sets, hold RIR at 2.
Auto-adjusts to your shift pattern and recovery score — higher carbs on training days, leaner on rest.
Every purchase unlocks the full dashboard — yours for life, updates included.

Run the protocol for two weeks. If it's not helping you train around your shifts, email the founder — an ICU nurse who built this around the same chaos you're dealing with — for a full refund. Real support if you want to make it work, a real refund if it's not for you.
No. Generic plans assume you sleep on a normal schedule and train when you feel fine. RX-RC is built around your Clinical Recovery Score — it tells you when to push, when to back off, and when not to train at all, based on your actual shift load. That decision-making is the product, not the exercise list.
RX-RC isn't built around a fixed weekly calendar — it's built around your Acuity Level and Recovery Status on any given day, whether you work 3 twelves a week, rotate nights, or never have the same schedule twice. You run the protocol against your real week, not the other way around.
Both. RX-RC isn't gender-specific — it's built around your Clinical Recovery Score and your shift load, not your sex. The training structure (sets, reps, progression) and recovery logic adjust to where your body actually is, whatever that looks like for you. Male and female clinicians both use the same protocol.
The standard program is written for a gym with barbells, dumbbells, and basic machines, since progressive overload is easiest to track that way. Every exercise has clear movement-pattern logic (squat, hinge, push, pull) so you can substitute equipment you have access to.
Yes. RX-RC is backed by a 14-day money-back guarantee. Log in, run the protocol, and if it's not helping you train around your shifts within 14 days, email the founder directly for a full refund — access is simply removed. You're not stuck with it if it's not for you.
A fresh Workout of the Week and a shift-worker training tip, delivered every week — new stimulus, no guessing, always something to run when you want a change from the core block. In the works. Get on the list and you'll be first in when it opens.
Stronger body. Stronger clinician. One protocol that adapts to the only schedule that matters — yours.
One workout a week, free, written between shifts by a working ICU nurse. Two sessions to choose from, one shared finisher everyone runs, and an honest reduced dose for the weeks you're coming off nights.
No cost, no catch. Read this week's before you decide on anything else.
