You can stop and switch programs anytime and you can discover new programs based on your interests (yoga, HIIT, etc.), fitness level, time availability, etc. Then benefit of this website is the sheer variety of workouts available; however, it can be a little overwhelming if you are just trying to get started and need some direction.
