Programing
Street Parking
A Flexible & Accessible Training Program Street Parking provides daily workouts along with specialized programs like Endurance Weeks and the Tactical Program, making it a versatile option for those with varying fitness goals.
One of the standout features is the Annual Vault Challenge—a 25-week series where members complete one workout per week. Those who successfully finish all 25 workouts earn exclusive rewards, including a Vault shirt, coin, and other goodies. Additionally, Street Parking keeps members accountable through a badge system, which encourages consistency and engagement.
Their Daily WODs come in multiple variations to fit different equipment setups:
A: Dumbbell version B: Barbell version C: Sandbag version Shift: A lighter, more accessible option My Experience with Street Parking
I’ve been a Street Parking member for several years, and what has kept me coming back is the strong community and the Vault challenge. However, I’ve noticed that without a leaderboard, the competitive edge isn’t as present. Additionally, over the past few years, I feel the programming has become less intense.
That said, if you’re someone who trains on the go or has limited equipment, Street Parking is an excellent option for maintaining fitness without the need for a full gym setup.

My Take on HWPO Training
HWPO is a solid program with a well-structured approach to strength, conditioning, and MetCons. At $40 per month, it’s on the pricier side compared to other online programs, but you can save some money by opting for an annual subscription.
The programming itself is top-notch—you get warm-ups, strength work, and conditioning all laid out for you. It’s designed for serious athletes who want structured progress rather than just random WODs.
Pros of HWPO:
- ✔ Comprehensive programming – Includes warm-ups, strength cycles, and conditioning workouts.
- ✔ Great for structured progress – Unlike random WODs, HWPO follows a clear progression.
- ✔ Elite training methodology – Designed by Mat Fraser, a 5x CrossFit Games Champion.
Cons of HWPO:
- ❌ Requires a full CrossFit gym & commercial gym – To fully take advantage of the program, you’ll need access to barbells, rigs, sleds, GHDs, ropes, and machines.
- ❌ Some workouts require a pool – While most workouts are gym-based, some days include swim training, which not everyone has access to.
- ❌ Higher cost compared to other programs – At $40 per month, it's more expensive than some alternatives.
Final Thoughts
Overall, HWPO is a great program if you have the right setup. The structured approach and progression-based training make it ideal for serious athletes. However, if you train at home or in a limited gym environment, it might not be the most practical option.
Would I recommend it? Yes, if you have access to the right equipment. Otherwise, you might need to modify workouts or look for a more home-gym-friendly alternative.
