In this article, I introduce you to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/Uh1JPFRU_tw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MAPS Prime<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MAPS Prime is not your typical gym workout. It\u2019s a tool to help you assess and enhance your mobility and bring your actual training session to a higher level. In the words of Mind Pump Media it sounds like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mindpumpmedia.com\/maps-prime\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MAPS Prime<\/a> is a program designed to noticeably amplify the benefits and results of your existing workouts through mobility training and exercises. It acts as your Pre\/Intra\/Post workout supplement by customizing mobility sessions to your own body and teaching you how to implement them into your current workout routine. Before you get started, you will be given 3 tests based off the PRIME COMPASS. The PRIME COMPASS drives your body into three zones \u2013 WALL TEST, WINDMILL TEST, and SQUAT TEST. Each zone consists of a simple\/Fail test that will guide you on how to customize and use MAPS Prime for your greatest benefit. By \u201cpriming\u201d your body, your results will be dramatically more noticeable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/MAPS-Prime.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" data-attachment-id=\"4271\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/review\/maps-prime-review-mind-pump-media-2\/attachment\/maps-prime\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/MAPS-Prime.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 Prime\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;MAPS Prime&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;MAPS Prime&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/MAPS-Prime.png?fit=600%2C338&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/MAPS-Prime.png?resize=600%2C338&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/MAPS-Prime.png?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/MAPS-Prime.png?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/MAPS-Prime.png?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/MAPS-Prime.png?resize=150%2C84&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/MAPS-Prime.png?resize=600%2C338&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/MAPS-Prime.png?resize=107%2C60&amp;ssl=1 107w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/MAPS-Prime.png?resize=160%2C90&amp;ssl=1 160w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/MAPS-Prime.png?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/taoofstefan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/MAPS-Prime.png?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why am I reviewing MAPS Prime?<\/h2>\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<p>After repeating myself a few times, I decided to review the MAPS programs. I have a playlist with all of them on youtube: Mind Pump Review Playlist<\/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<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MAPS Prime Review<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/Uh1JPFRU_tw\" 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&nbsp;<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 Prime in my YouTube review, but here are a few highlights of the program:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MAPS Prime is an assessment tool containing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>the Prime Compass,<\/li><li>the Wall Test,<\/li><li>the Windmill Test,<\/li><li>the Squat Test,<\/li><li>many exercises to work on and enhance your mobility,<\/li><li>movements to prime for your compound lifts and<\/li><li>a small training blueprint to work on failed parts of the compass test.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In MAPS Prime you start with the compass test, doing the wall, windmill and squat test. You can either pass or fail it. My recommendation is when in doubt, fail the test and work with the tools provided by the program. It\u2019s not going to hurt you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More you can find out in my review.&nbsp;I hope this gets you excited to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/Uh1JPFRU_tw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">watch my review<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article introduces you to my MAPS Prime review.
