Module 1 Workouts
Module 1 Workouts
Stretch Time!
Mobilize the hip flexor, knee, and ankle for the next 10 minutes.
• Spend 1-2 minutes stretching each hip flexor in any variation. The added stretch from the
resistance band is helpful if you have trouble getting enough of a stretch during the hip
flexor stretch in Phase 1.
• Spend 1 minute on each side with the QL door stretch.
Workout 1
This workout may need to be done a couple of times before moving to the next workout.
3 Rounds of:
• 5-10 Split squats on each side. Start with the weaker side. Use any modification needed to
ensure good form.
• Up to a 90 second hollow tuck.
• 15 Banded scapular side raises on each side starting with the weaker/more difficult side.
Workout 2
The goal with this workout is to cycle through the exercises faster to get your heart rate up. If
your form starts to fall apart, slow down and focus on controlled movements.
20 Minutes of:
• 5 Split squats on each side or (advanced) 10 alternating forward lunges.

• Up to 30 second hollow tuck hold or (advanced) rock (only if you can control the "rock" as
described in the video).
• 5 Banded scapular side pulls on each side.

Module 1 Workouts
All Inclusive Workouts

hold it there. Form trumps the number of reps you do).
• Up to 15 single leg bridges with right leg.
• 1 0 Split squats with right leg forward.
• 20 Alternating leg drop roll ups.
• Up to 15 single leg bridges with left leg.

Module 2 Workouts
Module 2 Workouts
Stretch Time!
When tight, these three areas of the body greatly reduce the quality of your squat. Spend several
minutes with these exercises to help improve your squat technique and depth. We want to be
able to squat as low as possible without discomfort. Remember, most of the world spends much
of their time in the squat position.
2-3 rounds of:

• Stretch the groin for 2 minutes per side with the groin rock.
• Stretch each ankle for 2-4 minutes total with various stretches.
• Do the pigeon stretch for 1 minute per side.
Workout 1
Modify the squats as needed. Use a heel lift, bands around the knees, squat to a chair, use a light
weight, etc. Some of you may not need any assistance, others of you might need everything I just
listed.
2-4 Rounds of:

• 1 0 Banded glute bridges to get the glutes engaged.
• Up to 20 controlled squats, take a break when you are unable to maintain your brace.
Rest 2 minutes after each round.
Workout 2
2-4 Rounds of:

• 1 Minute slow bear crawl forward (stop before form fails).
• Up to 20 controlled squats (stop before form fails).
• 1 Minute slow bear crawl backward.
• 30 Second squat hold at the bottom. Focus on your breathing and bracing while in the
bottom of a squat. If you need to, put your back against the wall or hold onto a sturdy
object to keep yourself from falling.

Module 2 Workouts

• A couple of minutes of quick ankle, groin, or hip stretches, whichever you feel improves
your squats the most.
Workout 1
20 Minute circuit:
• 1 0 Single leg glute bridges on each side.
• 1 Minute tuck hold or rock.
• 1 0 Squats.
• 10 RD L's.

Module 3 Workouts
Module 3 Workouts
Do each of these workouts with a very light weight to make sure that your form is on point. By
light weight I mean 10-55 lbs for women and 15-95 lbs for men. Practice with a kettlebell or
dumbbell first to make sure that your hinging pattern is correct and that your spine remains
neutral while you stand up. Redo the workouts with a barbell if you would like.

• Hamstring stretch, foam roll, and bretzie stretch.
Stretch Time!
Prepare your hamstrings for the deadlift with 2 minutes of the active "contract and relax."
• Banded hamstring stretch.

• Spend 2 minutes with the upper back foam roll and/or smash. It is important for your
spine to be as neutral as possible during the deadlift. If your upper body is curved
forward, it will make the deadlift harder and may compromise your lower back. Maintain
your scapular retraction during the deadlift.
• Just for good measure, spend 1-2 minutes on each side with the bretzie stretch from
module 7 of Phase 1.
Workout 1
2-5 Rounds of:
• 2-5 Breaths of the banded bicycle on each side. Each breath should take you 5-1O
seconds. These are slow and controlled, making sure that your spine is neutral. Start with
your weaker side. If this exercise bothers you, substitute it with the hollow tuck or the leg
drops.
Rest 30 seconds - 2 minutes. Then:

• 15 Reverse band flys. Maintain your core brace. Do not let your shoulders shrug. Pinch the
blades low in the mid back. Hold for 1-2 seconds after you pull the band to your chest.

Module 3 Workouts
Rest 30 seconds - 2 minutes. Then:

• 5-15 Controlled deadlifts. These should be done at a controlled pace next to a mirror or
videotape yourself. If your deadlift doesn't look like the video, make sure you figure out
why!
Rest 30 seconds - 2 minutes.
Workout 2
The purpose of this workout is to test your ego and your ability to feel when your form is
starting to fall apart. Do as many reps as possible for each exercise and stop just before you feel
your form starting to fall apart. This requires critical analysis of your movement. There isn't a set
number of reps for each exercise (AMRAP -3 means: do as many reps as possible -3 reps before
you hit failure) the number of reps you do each round should stay the same or go down
depending on your muscle fatigue.
2-5 Rounds of:

• AMRAP - 3 controlled deadlift.
Rest 1-2 minutes. Then:

• AMRAP - 3 reverse band fly.
Workout 3
Slightly speed up your deadlifts. The reverse band fly and banded bicycle remain controlled.
15 Minute circuit:
• 1 O Reverse band fly.
5-15 Second rest. Then:

• 10-15 Deadlifts. Go as fast as possible without compromising your technique, form, and
spinal integrity. Remember, these should be lightweight deadlifts.
5-15 Second rest. Then:

• 2-5 Banded bicycle on each side. Start with the weaker side and base your reps off of the
weaker leg.

Module 3 Workouts

Workout 1
Start with:
• 1 Minute hip flexor stretch (banded optional) on each side.
• 4 Minutes of foam rolling quads, adductors, hamstrings, and IT bands. Foam roll the entire
thigh.
Then 3-5 rounds of:

• 5-15 Split squats on each side (optional: add light weight in the goblet position), start the
exercise on the weaker side first. I recommend putting a pad/pillow under the knee.
Rest 1-2 minutes. Then:

• 5-15 Deadlifts.
Finish with:
• 3 Minutes of single leg balance matrix on each side (optional) stand on an unstable
surface.
Workout 2
Start with:
• 1 Minute lacrosse pee minor in the doorway.
• 1 Minute lacrosse trap/levator.

• 1 Minute forward bear crawl.
• 1 O Band reverse fly with a 1-2 second hold.

Module 3 Workouts
Workout 3
Start with:
• 2 Minute active banded hamstring stretch.
• 20 Alternating single leg RDL.
Then 3-5 rounds of:

• 5-1 O Deadlifts with light weight form is the focus as always.
Then 3 rounds of (rest 1 minute between sets):

• 1 Minute plank.
• 10 Controlled RDL's.
• 1 O Scapular push-ups. This is an extremely important exercise!
• 1 O Band reverse fly's.

Module 4 Workouts
Module 4 Workouts
Before each workout, complete the MoveU warmup:
• Core bracing 2 minutes, leg drops 1-2 minutes, inchworms, spidermans, pass-throughs,
side lunges, and scapular push-ups -1O reps of each.
Stretch Time!
Every stretch in Phase 1 and Phase 2 can be turned into a dynamic stretch by simply reducing
the amount of time holding the stretch to about 5-1O seconds and increasing the number of
repetitions per side. The inchworm, spiderman, pass-through, and side lunge are awesome
exercises for warming up the body.
The MoveU warmup for every workout (about 10 minutes):

• 2 Minutes of alternating leg drops.
• Do 5-1O inchworms.
• 5-1O Alternating spidermans.
• 1O Pass-throughs starting with stick in front to start with palms facing backward.
• 1O Pass-throughs starting with stick behind you with palms facing forward.
• 1O Alternating side lunges with the feet parallel.
• 1O Alternating side lunges with the opposite foot turned up.
• 1O Scapular push-ups. This exercise is extremely important for scapular stability and
improving your overall posture.
Each exercise can be slightly modified as well. Examples:

• You could add a push-up, rotation, pigeon stretch, etc. In the middle of the inchworms or
spidermans.
• You could add circular rotations to the pass-throughs or narrow/widen the grip.
• The side lunges can be held for several seconds at the bottom or have slight weight added
to them.

Module 4 Workouts
Workout 2
3 Rounds of:
• 5-1 0 Negative step downs on each side starting with the weaker side (step up on the box
fast, then control the descent as slowly as possible to build strength).
• 30 Seconds of difficult banded anti-rotation (choose a heavier band or step further away
from the attachment point). Make sure your body is still square.
• 5-1 0 Negative push-ups. Control the descent as slowly as possible. Don't focus on pushing
up, "worm" up or find any other way to get yourself back to the starting position without
exerting yourself. This "negative" motion will build strength.
Workout 3
Form is everything. Slow down in this workout. Pick a pace where you can continue moving
without stopping, but are also not falling apart with your form. Choose the appropriate height
for your step-up so that you can maintain good form and choose the appropriate modification
for your push-up.
10 Minute circuit of:

• 20 Alternating step-ups (optional: hold a dumbbell or kettlebell in goblet position, on the
chest).
• Up to 1 0 push-ups.

Module 4 Workouts

Phase 1)
• Stretch pee minor/major in a doorway for 1-2 minutes each.

Module 5 Workouts
Module 5 Workouts
EMOM
If you don't understand what "every minute on the minute for 6 minutes" means, here is an
example of the beginner version written out. There are a total of 6 sets in a 6-minute EMOM:
• Minute O (when the clock starts): start your 5 burpees. If you finish in 20 seconds, you
have 40 seconds of rest.
• Minute 1: start your 5 burpees. If you finish in 18 seconds, you have 42 seconds of rest.
• Minute 2: start your 5 burpees. If you finish in 19 seconds, you have 41 seconds of rest.
• Minute 3: etc.
• Minute 4: etc.
• Minute 5: start your 5 burpees. If you finish in 21 seconds, you are now finished.
Stretch Time!
The up-dog and down-dog
We have taught you how to stabilize and neutralize the spine with abdominal core bracing, but
can you do it while manipulating the curvature of the spine? For these two stretches, I am
looking to see if you can maintain a slight amount of abdominal bracing while arching/rounding
the back. You should only have about 20% of a brace when arching the back for the
up-dog/cobra position and during the down-dog position.
Both of these stretches are optional and might not be for you. If you feel pain with either one of
these stretches, stop doing it or limit the amount of curvature that you put into the spine.

Module 5 Workouts
Do a 15-30 second hold in the down-dog position and a 15-second hold in the up-dog/cobra
position.
Rewatch the videos on these stretches to learn how to modify it if you do have pain or
discomfort.
Workout 1
3-5 Rounds of:

• 1O Squats at a tempo of 3.2.1.1 (3 seconds down, 2 second hold, 1 second up, 1 second
pause at the top, repeat). Optional: add weight and/or a band around the knees. Modify
the depth/heel lift as needed.
• Up to 1 minute arch/superman hold, maintain your core brace while extending the spine.
• 1O Bent over row on each side. Start with the weaker side first choose an appropriate
weight that doesn't compromise form.
Finish with (optional):

• 2 Minutes alternating between up and down-dog or going in and out of one of them, i.e. if
one hurts you, do the one that doesn't.

Module 5 Workouts
Workout 2
2 Rounds of:
• 1 Minute side plank weak side first.
• Up to 15 squats with a tempo of 3.6.1.3 (3 seconds down, 6 second hold, 1 second up, 3
second pause at top, repeat).
• 1 Minute side plank strong side (time based off of weak side) (module 5).
• Up to 15 "negative" bent rows, focus on a very slow descent with each rep. You may need
to reduce the weight.
Finish with:
• 2 Minute banded hip flexor stretch on each side.
• Accumulate a 2 minute QL door stretch on each side.
Workout 3
Start with 3 rounds of:

• 15 Squats with a tempo of 3.3.2.1.
Up to 1 minute arch/superman hold.
Then every minute on the minute (EMOM) for 6 minutes complete:

• 5-1O Burpees if you are a beginner to burpees, do 5 reps each minute. If you are very
familiar with burpees, you are welcome to do 1O reps. Form with the burpee and
maintaining your abdominal brace is the primary focus of this workout. Choose a number
that allows you to have at least 20 seconds of rest after completing the burpees before
starting them again on the next minute.
There are numerous variations of the burpee. Rewatch the video for the one that best suits you.
If any of these variations hurt or bother you, skip this part of the workout.

Module 5 Workouts
The workouts are getting progressively harder. Please remember to modify these workouts
according to your abilities. I don't expect a 22-year-old professional male athlete to do the same
workout as a 65-year-old male who hasn't worked out in 5-10 years. Before each workout,
complete the MoveU warmup:
Workout 1
Start with:
• 1-2 Minutes of banded active hamstring stretch on each side.
Then 3-5 rounds of:

• 10-15 Deadlifts.
• 10 Bent dumbbell row on each side (weak side first).
• 20 Alternating side lunges.
Finish with:
• Foam roll/lacrosse legs/knee.
• Foam roll upper back or smash upper back.
Workout 2
Pick a pace that you can maintain. If you do all 16 side lunges in a row and then have to stand
and rest for 1 minute before starting your bear crawl, you did too many reps at once and are
moving too quickly. Break up the reps accordingly. Maybe do 2 sets of 8 side lunges before
moving onto the bear crawl.
15-20 Minute circuit of:

• 2 Inchworms.
• 4 Squats at a tempo of 4.8.1.2 (4 seconds down, 8 second hold, 1 second up, 2 second
pause, repeat).
• 8 Forward lunges.
• 16 Alternating side lunges (opposite foot turning upward).
• 1 Minute slow bear crawl in any direction you choose.

Module 5 Workouts
Workout 3
3 Rounds of:
• 15 Banded goblet squats.
• Up to a 90 second hollow tuck/rock.
Then 3 rounds of:

• 1O Deadlifts.
• 2-5 Breaths of the banded bicycle on each side.
Workout 4
After the MoveU warmup, start with:

• Ankle mobility stretches from module 2.
Then 3 rounds of:

• 1O Split squats on each side (starting with weaker side). Optional: add weight, either
goblet, front rack (barbell only), or back squat position (barbell only). If your form falls
apart with weight added, get rid of it.
• Up to 1O push-ups focus on technique.
• 1O Reverse band pulls (heavier band).
Then complete the rep scheme of 15, 12, 9 of:

• Goblet squats (light to moderate weight).
• Burpees choose a progression that allows you to focus on form.
How does this rep scheme work exactly?

• Do 15 goblet squats, then 15 burpees, then 12 squats, then 12 burpees, then 9 squats,
then 9 burpees, finished.

Module 6 Workouts
Module 6 Workouts
Stretching the neck/shoulder and upper back.
• Spend 2 minutes on each side stretching the upper trapezius and levator scapulae
muscles. Hold onto a band or a weight to anchor the shoulder down. Use the other hand
to pull the head to the side gently. Stretching these two muscles will improve your
scapular mobility.
• Gaining rotation through the upper back for 2 minutes prior to exercise and rotary sports
will take load off of the shoulders, lower back, and hips. Prevent the hips from moving
during this exercise to isolate the upper back.
Workout 1
After completing the MoveU warmup, complete 3 rounds of:

• 15 Reps of active thoracic rotation on each side.
• 5-10 Squat W's. Put blocks/books under the butt if you need to limit the depth of the
squat. If you have any pain from this, do normal W's on the wall or 10 banded scapular
side raise on each side.
3-5 Rounds of:

• 10-15 Sumo deadlifts with a dumbbell, kettlebell or barbell. Keep the weight between
10-55 lbs for women and 15-95 lbs for men. Practice technique!

Module 7 Workouts
Module 7 Workouts
Tight hip flexors and quadriceps.
• A problem with our current sitting society is that it contributes to our back tightness
significantly. Releasing the quads will not only help reduce the tension of the knee, but
will also reduce tension on the back. One of the quads, the rectus femoris, is a hip flexor
and it must be "released!"
• Spend up to 2 minutes in this couch stretch position. If you do end up dropping your knee
to the floor, make sure that you have a pad under the knee. Also, if you have any previous
knee injuries or have knee pain, try "gapping" the knee with a towel or other object as
described/shown in the video.
Workout 1
Doing 1 minute of the couch stretch is excellent before doing the Bulgarian split squat.
3-5 Rounds of:

• 5-1O Bulgarian split squats. If you struggle with this exercise, continue practicing the split
squat from module 1.
• Up to a 1 minute full hollow hold/rock. If this is too difficult, try the other variations in the
video or do the hollow tuck from module 1.
• 15 Ring/TRX rows. If you don't have access to these items, do a bent row or reverse band
pull.

Module 7 Workouts
Workout 2
Do 1 minute of the helicopter stretch.
3 Rounds of:
• 15 Banded punches on each side. Hold each rep for 1-2 seconds at the end-range.
• 15 Ring rows.
Then a 12 minute circuit of:

• 5 Bulgarian split squats on each side.
• 10 Ring rows.
• 30 Second hollow hold.
Workout 3
Spend 20 minutes building up to a moderately heavy set of 5 reps of:

• Bulgarian split squats. Use a dumbbell or barbell and add weight. Maintain your core
brace. If the weight causes you to lose form, practice reps without weight.
Then 3 rounds of:

• 20-30 Ring rows at an easy to moderate difficulty.
• Up to a 90 second hollow hold or rock. Again, choose an easier core exercise as needed.

Module 7 Workouts

weight or get rid of it altogether. Modify depth and lifts as needed.
• 2-5 Breaths with the banded bicycle.
Then, an ascending ladder for 6 minutes of:

• 1 Burpee.
• 1 Air squat. No weight, no bands, no designated tempo. Modify depth and heel height as
needed to maintain a neutral spine.
• 2 Burpees.
• 2 Air squats.
• 3 Burpees.

Then, 3 rounds of:

• 15 Deadlifts. Light to moderate weight. Remember, ego!
• 10 Push-ups.
• 5 Ring rows with a 4 second hold and as slow of a descent as possible.

Module 7 Workouts
Workout 4
The second part of this workout may be a very advanced for some of you.
Scale as needed or skip the second part of this workout.
3-5 Rounds of:
• 1 O Alternating side lunges with feet flat and parallel. Optional: add weight in the goblet
position.
• 10-15 Sumo deadlifts with light to moderate weight. Again, although this is a powerful
movement, be smart.
Then, complete 1 round of the following workout as fast as possible without compromising
form:
There are many more repetitions in this workout than you are used to seeing in this program.
Choose a number of reps that is representative of your level of fitness. If you are still a beginner,
choose 15 repetitions for all 7 exercises. If you are a seasoned athlete, try the 30 repetitions for
all 7 exercises.
You must complete all of the box jumps before moving onto the push-ups. You must complete all

Stretch Time!
These are incredible to do on your own time, several times a week if you are lacking in hip
internal or external rotation. For the next workout section, add these two exercises to your
warmup before each individual workout, and take note of how the movements feel after having
done these three exercises.
• 2 Minutes of the seated groin waddle.

• 2-3 Rounds of 2-5 reps of both of the standing internal and standing external rotation
exercises.
Workout 1
Complete 3-5 rounds of:

• 10-20 Box squats with a light to moderate weight. Focus on glute engagement. If you find
yourself falling forward, lighten the load and focus! If you need to, resort to the glute pops
from module 1 of Phase 1 to get control of the glutes before doing this exercise.
• 5-15 Side plank rotations on the weak side first.
• 5-15 Single leg jumps on the weak leg first.
• 5-15 Side plank rotations on the strong side.
• 5-15 Single leg jumps on the strong side.

Module 8 Workouts
Workout 2
Active hip internal and external rotation is difficult for a majority of people. Be patient with these
exercises even if you can barely rotate the leg in or out. The important part is that you force your
body into that range of motion as much as possible without added assistance.
Complete 3 rounds of:

• 5 Groin waddles each way with a 5 second hold.
• 3-5 Reps of standing active internal rotation on each leg starting with your tighter/weaker
side.

side.
Then, 10 minute circuit of:

• 1O Box squats.
• 1O Alternating lateral bounds.
• 5 Side plank rotations on each side.
Workout 3
Thruster and pull-up practice.

• Both of these movements are advanced and many of you may not be familiar with either
of them. The thruster can be done with lightweight dumbbells and is easy to do at home.
The pull-up, on the other hand, may be a logistical challenge, not just a physical challenge.
If you do not have access to a pull-up bar, substitute the pull-up motion with any of the
other pulling motions from this program.
Practice 15 minutes of generating hip thrust during the thruster:

• 5-1O Thrusters with light weight . Beginner: dumbbells. Advanced: barbell. It is crucial that
you maintain proper form during this movement!
• Rest as needed between sets.
Practice 20 minutes of scapular pull-ups and pull-ups:

• 1-1O Scapular pull-ups while maintaining the usual braced form.
• Rest as needed.
• 1-5 Strict pull-ups.
• Rest as needed.
