Introduction
These exercises are a precursor to application. The progression is solo, helpful partner, resisting partner to combative partner. If you can't do them slow with no one in the way, you will never make them work with a partner. These exercises serve as a primer for the body, promote health and fitness levels, particularly joint health, flexibility, balance, co-ordination, agility, and ALL have sport applications. Do them all the time! All day, every day!
This list is a REMINDER and not meant to be explanatory or detailed. You should know the names and the movements from working out. In addition to doing this exercises, you should also connect one to another, and cut some of them in half and join them with another exercise. The idea is to flow from one exercise to another seamlessly.
Finally, do not ONLY do them as series, but remember to not recognize a difference between standing or the ground, but flow indiscriminately from one to the other.
