Here I am in my studio Supreme Ultimate Fitness in Boca Raton, FL doing a T’ai Chi style Get Up. This a a true TOTALLY ZEN WORKOUT!
Why would you want to do this? Good questions and here are some reasons:
- Mindfulness – to bring yourself in the moment of the movement pattern
- Control – to gain better control of your body and mind while “flowing” through the get up
- Learning – trust me when I say you will learn a great deal about how you move by practicing like this once in a while
- Balance – you can do this on your off days and still get great benefit from the get up without stressing the body
There are just a few reasons. Let me know how you like it, please post your comments below. Thanks

Today’s workout was brutal at Supreme Ultimate Fitness in Boca Raton, FL .
First it started with a strength phase using a 24kg kettlebell, then double 24kg bells. Then I went into some 5 min circuits using ropes, TRX, kettlebell, and sangbag. I love these 4 tools for metabolic conditioning. They compliment each other very well. Then I finished with 10 min T’ai Chi Chih active recovery.
Here is the exact workout
- Strength Circuit #1: Double clean & press x5 , front squat x5, swings x5, snatch (single x 10) for 3 rounds no rest
- Strength Circuit #2: Push Up x 10, renegade row x 5 each side, single leg dead lift x 5 each side for 3 rounds no rest
- Cardio circuit #1: walking swings, battling ropes, TRX row, sandbag shouldering for 2 rounds for 30 sec work/15 sec rest
- Cardio circuit #2: farmers walk, hand-hand swings, TRX press, TRX one leg squats for 2 rounds for 30 sec work/15 sec rest
- T’ai CHi Chih: Rocking Motion, Bird Flaps its wings, Bass Drum, Pulling Taffy variation #3, 6 healing sounds, cosmic consciousness pose.
