Programing

This section covers some of the training programs I’ve personally followed—programs built by elite athletes and proven in the real world.

From the minimalist intensity of Street Parking, to the competitive edge of HWPO (Hard Work Pays Off), and the gritty, no-excuses style of Josh Bridges, these workouts have shaped how I train, recover, and perform.

HWPO Hard Work Pays Off

Built for champions. Demands everything.

HWPO, founded by 5x CrossFit Games Champion Mat Fraser, is a high-volume, high-intensity training program designed for serious athletes chasing elite performance. It’s not just a workout—it’s a grind rooted in discipline, structure, and measurable progress.

Unlike minimalist programs, HWPO requires more equipment almost to the point of needing a fully stocked garage gym or regular access to a CrossFit box. You’ll be using barbells, plates, machines, and accessories regularly, and programming often includes strength work, Olympic lifts, and conditioning sessions in the same day.

If you're looking for a challenge that tests your limits physically and mentally, and you're ready to commit to putting in real work, HWPO delivers. It’s not for everyone but it will make you better.

Hard Work Pays Off—if you're willing to earn it.
