Spice up your burpees
Add some spice to your burpees.
It’s no secret, we like cadence exercises. Why? Because there’s no where to hide, you can either do it, or you can’t. And there’s no bonus for speeding through, as if it’s some achievement that you’re done before everyone else.
Cadence exercises separate the herd, because its instantly obvious who’s trying to skate by - and they know they’re exposed too.
We use the Maelz App for our cadence stuff (on the App Store, look it up, no affiliation, just a good app).
-
Start position is with your chest on the ground.
-
Beep, explode up, jump as high as you can, return to start position.
-
Rinse repeat.
Miss one cadence? That’s fine, wait it out. Miss two? You’re done.

Little key, heavy door
The consistent application of basic training principles is the little key. The heavy door is whatever your reason is for training the first place. Every locked door opens easily with the right key. You can hard-knock the bastard, breach your way through and get what you need. But in terms of longevity, that door is cactus.
Motivation for the motivated
Motivation for the motivated is a funny thing, because it isn’t about motivation at all. A tiny portion of society know exactly what they want, how to get it and what they have to do to achieve it.
They don’t need to be pushed or motivated, they need to be controlled.
