Our “Get Your Ass Off The Ground” movements begin and end standing and, once practiced, at no time do our hands touch the floor.

It's winter, you're in the last two weeks of the challenge and the promise of a great holiday season. So, get outside and move!

Move quickly, and properly, and add weight to challenge your full ability.

This program requires no warm-up to begin. You simply need to set aside 14 minutes, press play, and follow along.

Sometimes all you can do is breathe deep and wait for the battle.

If sets require interruption at chosen weights or position breaks, make a minor adjustment and continue.

Pace should not alter position- move quickly, but not carelessly.

You can remove a whole set of excuses by shrinking the distance between your bedroom and the weight room to feet, instead of miles.

If lifting position breaks, make as minor an adjustment as needed and complete the remaining sets safely and uninterrupted.

“The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way, becomes the way.” – Marcus Aurelius

Breathe like you know how, think without over-thinking, and never under-hustle.

The implement may change, but position and range of motion remain the same.

Although the directive is as heavy as possible, sound position and a full range of motion always govern weight.

This progression will help open up your hunched, rounded, slouching upper spine.

Stand strong and organized- tension helps build strength, provided we stay engaged in the process.

Move seamlessly during work rounds, and hustle in transitions; work during the work, and rest during the rest.

After the rush of Thanksgiving, you're on your last lap to the Christmas Eve finish line. Sounds like a good time to up your meditation game among other things.
