They really tell it as it is, debunking common myths, misunderstandings in order to help you figure out what works and what doesn&#8217;t. In this article, I introduce you to MAPS Anabolic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MAPS Performance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first fitness program they ever sold was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mindpumpmedia.com\/maps-performance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MAPS Performance (also referred to as MAPS Green)<\/a>, which is now part of the MAPS RGB bundle. Years ago I bought the RGB bundle, just to see what it was all about. And to learn more about programming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/YrRR5OmRBtA\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" data-attachment-id=\"4214\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/exercise\/maps-performance-review-mind-pump-media\/attachment\/maps-green\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MAPS-Green.png?fit=1280%2C720&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1280,720\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"MAPS Performance\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;MAPS Performance&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;MAPS Performance&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MAPS-Green.png?fit=600%2C338&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MAPS-Green.png?resize=600%2C338&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"MAPS Performance\" class=\"wp-image-4214\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MAPS-Green.png?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MAPS-Green.png?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MAPS-Green.png?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MAPS-Green.png?resize=150%2C84&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MAPS-Green.png?resize=600%2C338&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MAPS-Green.png?resize=107%2C60&amp;ssl=1 107w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MAPS-Green.png?resize=160%2C90&amp;ssl=1 160w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MAPS-Green.png?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/MAPS-Green.png?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>MAPS Performance<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The reason I did this review, is because people kept asking me about my thought about it. Does it work? How was it? Is it fun? Can you actually get stronger? Is it worth the money?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MAPS Performance Review<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After repeating myself a few times, I decided to review not only <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/YrRR5OmRBtA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MAPS Performance<\/a> but also the complete RGB bundle as video reviews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Just to be clear: this review is my personal opinion. No one paid me to do it. I received no incentive to write this article or recording the video.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/YrRR5OmRBtA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">review<\/a>, I tackle all the questions mentioned above, and more. If you are intrigued, have a look and make sure to give my video a like and share your thoughts in the comments too. I will share more videos in the future and would love to see you around, so make sure to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCyAV1LG0A66Hd75HSSco76Q\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">subscribe to my channel<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will learn everything about MAPS Performance in my YouTube review, but here are a few highlights of the program:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MAPS Performance is a phased program, which contains 4 different phases. Each phase trains your body in a different way, i.e. focus on a different form of output. Every phase will focus on a more athletic trainee, hence the performance title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each phase is three weeks long and comes with a 3 day a week full-body training blueprint. You will do all the compound lifts, additional isolation work and also work your calves and abs too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On your non-foundational training days, you won&#8217;t be sedentary, you will so-called &#8220;mobility sessions&#8221;. In these sessions, you will work on mobility, stretches and body-weight movements. All these will make sure that you get the most out of your foundational training days. You might be able to do these at home, or at the gym. Either way: don&#8217;t skip your mobility sessions!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope this gets you excited to <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/YrRR5OmRBtA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">watch my review<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article introduces you to my MAPS Performance review.
