Instructions

Perform the soft tissue preparation first to address any tight areas. Move through the activation exercises to warm up your core and primary movers. For the main workout, focus on proper form and controlled movements rather than lifting heavy. Maintain the prescribed tempo and ensure full range of motion. The finisher is designed to elevate your heart rate briefly. Conclude with the cool-down stretches to aid recovery and flexibility.

Tips

Prioritize form over weight. If an exercise feels too difficult, use a lighter weight or a regression (e.g., incline push-ups instead of floor push-ups).

Breathe deeply and deliberately throughout each exercise. Inhale before the effort, exhale during the effort.

Listen to your body. If you feel any sharp pain, stop the exercise immediately. Soreness is normal, pain is not.
