Alternate pushing and pulling/self-resistance with leg or trunk work so upper-body sets are not all performed back to back.
Alternate each pair (A1/A2 … F1/F2) for 3 rounds · one exercise starts every minute · up to 40 s work, rest for the unused time
Use only a fixed, load-bearing counter that cannot tip or slide. Lower the chest between the hands with the body moving as one unit.
Keep the whole foot supported. Bend within a controllable range, then stand without bouncing or collapsing inward.
Move the shoulder blades smoothly without lifting the ribs. Keep the neck relaxed.
Soften the knees and send the hips back. Keep any load close; stop before the trunk position becomes difficult to control.
Keep the elbow and wrist comfortable. Use only modest resistance and control both directions without straining.
Breathe throughout and keep the pelvis quiet. Shorten the lever or range before the back arches or the shoulders lose support.
Use a smooth, comfortable range and steady breathing. Stop before compensating to finish a target.
Move through the hips with the ribs quiet. Stop the range before the lower back takes over; lower slowly.
Keep the trunk steady and draw the elbow back without twisting. Lower or release tension gradually.
Breathe throughout and keep the pelvis quiet. Shorten the lever or range before the back arches or the shoulders lose support.
Rise and lower slowly through the forefoot without rolling the ankle. Use secure fingertip support when needed.
Use a pace and route that keep steps controlled. Do not chase speed or breathlessness; leave space to slow down.
Readiness comes before the clock. Take extra preparation or pause whenever needed.
Six consecutive pairs, A1/A2 through F1/F2. Repeat each pair three times. Each minute holds up to 40 s work and at least 20 s recovery or transition.
Effort: 5–7/10; finish with 2–4 good repetitions in reserve. These are 36 station exposures, not 36 maximal strength sets.
Use the easier option named on the exercise card, shorten the lever or range, and stop the work early. Pause the clock when additional recovery or setup time is needed.
Repeat this selection until the target can be completed with stable technique on two occasions. Then change one variable only: range, repetitions within the time cap, or modest resistance. Never progress just to fill the timer.
Use only a fixed, load-bearing counter that cannot tip or slide. Lower the chest between the hands with the body moving as one unit. Use about 3 s per repetition unless a slower tempo is written. Stop when the target is reached.
Easier: Wall push-up
Keep the whole foot supported. Bend within a controllable range, then stand without bouncing or collapsing inward. Use about 3 s per repetition unless a slower tempo is written. Stop when the target is reached.
Easier: Chair sit-to-stand
Move the shoulder blades smoothly without lifting the ribs. Keep the neck relaxed. Unloaded drills train control, not a loaded row. Use about 3 s per repetition unless a slower tempo is written. Stop when the target is reached.
Easier: Standing W shoulder-blade control
Soften the knees and send the hips back. Keep any load close; stop before the trunk position becomes difficult to control. Use about 3 s per repetition unless a slower tempo is written. Stop when the target is reached.
Easier: Seated hip hinge
Keep the elbow and wrist comfortable. Use only modest resistance and control both directions without straining. Use capped, non-glass bottles; match loads when two bottles are used. Use about 3 s per repetition unless a slower tempo is written. Stop when the target is reached.
Easier: reduce range, resistance or work time.
Breathe throughout and keep the pelvis quiet. Shorten the lever or range before the back arches or the shoulders lose support. Use capped, non-glass bottles; match loads when two bottles are used. Match both sides; the displayed dose is per side. Use about 3 s per repetition and up to 5 s to change sides; the cap includes both sides.
Easier: Wall forearm plank
Use a smooth, comfortable range and steady breathing. Stop before compensating to finish a target. Use about 3 s per repetition and up to 5 s to change sides; the cap includes both sides.
Easier: reduce range, resistance or work time.
Move through the hips with the ribs quiet. Stop the range before the lower back takes over; lower slowly. Breathe continuously and release before straining.
Easier: Glute bridge
Keep the trunk steady and draw the elbow back without twisting. Lower or release tension gradually. Use capped, non-glass bottles; match loads when two bottles are used. Use about 3 s per repetition unless a slower tempo is written. Stop when the target is reached.
Easier: Self-resisted one-arm row
Breathe throughout and keep the pelvis quiet. Shorten the lever or range before the back arches or the shoulders lose support. Use about 3 s per repetition and up to 5 s to change sides; the cap includes both sides.
Easier: Dead-bug heel tap
Rise and lower slowly through the forefoot without rolling the ankle. Use secure fingertip support when needed. Use about 3 s per repetition unless a slower tempo is written. Stop when the target is reached.
Easier: Chair-supported calf raise
Use a pace and route that keep steps controlled. Do not chase speed or breathlessness; leave space to slow down. Not a speed test. Recover for the remainder of the station.
Easier: reduce range, resistance or work time.
Equipment: Fixed countertop; Chair; Wall; Water bottles; Water bottle; Floor or mat; Chair + water bottles
Inspect supports and clear the floor. Chairs, steps and benches must not tip or slide. No improvised doorframe anchors, glass weights or unverified hanging supports.
Choose a controllable range and modest effort. Stop for sharp pain, dizziness, chest discomfort or unusual breathlessness.
Stop any movement that causes sharp or increasing pain, dizziness or unusual breathlessness. No pain, calorie-burn or injury-prevention outcome is guaranteed.
