When I was a teenager, I noticed that many of the strong men and fitness icons I admired had one thing in common: a morning routine.

Mine has evolved over the decades as my body and needs have changed, but the purpose remains the same.

Get my body moving, set my intentions, and prepare myself for the day.

I recently filmed my latest practice along with a shorter version you can easily follow.

Steve Maxwell’s Morning Routine Bundle 2026 is available now.

Comment MORNING and we’ll send you the link.

To do 20 alternating kettlebell swings takes me about 30 seconds.

Then I walk for a minute, bring my heart rate down, and add an exhale breath hold between rounds. I count my steps, restore myself with some burst breathing, and do it again.

Today was simple:

5 sets of 20 alternating swings
100 swings total
A little walking and breath work between each round

That’s a good workout.

I’m not trying to kill myself. I’m just trying to get some interval training in.

Training doesn’t always need to be complicated or taken to failure to be effective.

And if you haven’t grabbed my new Morning Routine yet, head over to the Video Shop and check it out. It’s a practice I’ve developed and adapted over decades to help get my body moving and ready for the day.

When I wake up in the morning, I set my intentions for the day, and a big part of that is getting my body ready to go.

My morning routine has evolved with me over the decades. I’ve added exercises, removed others, and as I’ve grown older, incorporated more breath work, Qi Gong, mobility, and energetic exercises.

The routine changes, but the purpose remains the same: to help me move and feel my best and prepare myself for the day.

We’ve now put together my Morning Routine 2026 Video, along with a shorter follow along version you can use when you want to get up, get moving, and get on with your day.

If you already have a morning practice, you may find some new ideas here that you can adapt and make your own.

I made these videos because I have a genuine desire to help people increase their energy, vitality, and health reserve.

Steve Maxwell’s Morning Routine 2026 + Short Form Morning Routine are available now as a bundle.

I sprint because I like it and I want to keep up the ability to run fast

You never know when you might need to run fast towards something or away from something

This is practical as well as healthy (if you can run)

If you can’t run, a stationary bike, Airdyne or rower is useful to practice this form of high intensity training

I consider sprinting a specific skill more than a workout; use it or lose it

For me, once a week is enough

welcome to my home office

I recommend that everyone get out of the chair several times a day and squat for about 30-seconds

It’s finally here!

My new TSC Isometric Sequences takes you through the hows and whys of a solid Timed Static Contraction workout using only a strap and a chair.

“…and the chair is optional.”

And we’ve paired it with my new Big 6 Plus, a follow along workout with full 90 second intervals and coaching audio so you can simply put it on and train with me.

Two brand new videos. Two different ways to learn and train.

For the Maxwell isometrics enthusiast, this is the definitive video set.

You don’t need marathon workouts to build serious strength.

One of the most useful training concepts I’ve used over my training and coaching career is the Big 6, an incredibly efficient strength workout for the time leveraged.

Six fundamental movement patterns. A full body workout. Twenty minutes or less.

There are many variations on this sequence, but the principle remains the same: workouts do not need to be lengthy or time consuming to be effective, BUT they need to be intense.

I break down the Big 6, how I’ve used it throughout my own training career, and how I’ve adapted it for clients in my newest blog.

Yesterday’s seminar at VLNK Academy here in Idaho. 🤙

Always an honor to step onto the mats with a community of men and women committed to learning, discipline, movement, and the art of jiu-jitsu.

And there’s something especially powerful about having the little ones in these spaces, too.

They’re watching. They’re absorbing. They’re growing up around real skills, capable bodies, discipline, respect, humility, and people willing to challenge themselves and keep learning.

Long before they understand the technique, they understand the energy of the room.
honored to come out to Idaho and share the mats with the VLNK Academy community for yesterday’s seminar. Thank you to everyone who showed up, trained hard, asked questions, and made us feel welcome.

We hope to be back soon. 🥋
