MovNat Combo Workout (MCW): Lifting, Carrying, Balancing, Jumping
Posted | 1 commentA MovNat combo workout (MCW) is a short circuit, combining a selection of techniques and movement variations, to be performed several times in a row without discontinuity. The content, emphasis, and level of difficulty of a combo in term of volume (time, number of sets and reps, distance), intensity (speed, height, distance, weight) or complexity (movement pattern, surfaces, shapes, weather conditions) should vary in relation to individual level and objectives.
Are you completely new to this? You’re a Beginner MovNatter and that’s cool
3 sets of:
Push Press x 6 (40lbs)
Lapping + 20 yards Chest Carry (40 lbs)
Tripod Transition x 2 on both sides (2×4 flat beam, ground level)
Broad Jump x 4 (3 feet distance, landing on flat target, ground level)
You’ve got some experience? That makes you an Experienced MovNatter, but stop bragging about it
4 sets of:
Push Press x 6 (60lbs)
Lapping + 20 yards Chest Carry (60lbs)
Tripod Transition x 4 on both sides (flat beam, elevated 1-2 feet)
Skill-to-skill Broad Jump to Forefoot Balancing x 6 (4 feet distance, landing on rounded beam, ground level)
You’ve got some serious practice already? You’re an Advanced MovNatter, bad boy!
5 sets of:
Push Press x 6 (80lbs)
Lapping + 30 yards Chest Carry (80lbs)

What’s MovNat again?
MovNat training is a physical education system and fitness program entirely based on the full range of natural human movement skills, including locomotive, manipulative, and combative skills.
The goal of MovNat training is the acquisition of physical competence for practical performance in the real world, and through the symbiotic development of movement skills and conditioning. The practice is both scalable and progressive.
DISCLAIMER
(i.e train intelligently, there’s enough jackasses in this world already)
The MCW above is for inspirational and motivational purpose only. It is not a technical instruction, or a standard, or individual program. Indications of reps, sets, time, height, distance, weight etc… are suggestions. Programming should be individually customized according to individual competence and objectives.
You are responsible for your own health and physical integrity. Always keep in mind safety considerations before engaging in physical training.






Great combo workout! I got a chance to do this one early this morning, and it kicked my butt! Thanks for a great example, Erwan and the MovNat team!
