I stepped outside yesterday morning, and had to put on a jacket for the first time!
And I look forward to this time of year.
There’s something about the cold air and quiet mornings — the constant movement, the trips, the tournaments, the chaos … all of it quiets.
And that’s when:
You lock in.
You disappear for a while.
You rebuild.
No one sees the work — and that’s the point.
The “winter arc” is about discipline for its own sake — and emerging in spring a different animal than you were when the leaves started falling.
And if you want to start your own winter arc, here’s a 20-minute bodyweight-only workout you can do anywhere — no gym, no gear, no excuses:
Get as many rounds as you can in 20 minutes of:
— 50 Seal Jacks
— 8 Bodyweight Renegade Rows (per side)
— 15 Total Body Extensions
— 12 Plank Jacks
— 10 Alternating Reverse Lunges (per side)
— 8 Burpees
