I keep a quiet corridor for surprises, a secret step you can skip if the terrain shifts—plan with razor‑sharp precision, but leave a soft edge for improv. Keep your core steady, let the edges wiggle. That’s how a strategist stays both lethal and elegant.

I love the “burpee‑to‑push‑up‑to‑one‑arm reach” drill – it’s a quick burst that forces you to keep the core locked while letting the arms shift into a fluid reach. It keeps the muscles tight, the mind alert, and the surprise edge ready. Try it at the end of your cardio for a sharp finish.
