Warm-Up · RAMPPhase 1 · Kinetic priming · ground flow & dissociation · 6-8 min
Time__ : __
1Leg Swingexhale on effort, move on the breath90 s
2Glute Bridgelong spine crown to tail — no segment collapses2 × 8
3Thoracic Rotationpattern before pace — position sets the speed limit6/side
Phase 2 · Reactive Power & Elasticity6-8 min · sub-max explosive · full rest between efforts
Time__ : __
1Shuttle Runground contact soft and quiet — hear nothing4 × 4
2Box Jumpown the deceleration — land it like you'd lower a child3 × 5
Phase 3 · Primary Kinetic Engine18-22 min · paired patterns · rest 90 s between pairs

3Overhead Pressexhale on effort, move on the breath3 × 10kg
4Seated Rowoffset load — hips stay quiet and level3 × 10kg
Progression: Fatigue rule: quality is the metric, not speed — the last round must match the first on video. Breathing ragged is fine; positions ragged is not.

Functional loading demands positional integrity — regress range before load with knee/ankle restrictions. Scale load to your level, stop at pain, follow the BPIT Principle of Intensity and NASM/ACSM/ACE safety guidance. Educational — not medical advice.
