MOE OVERVIEW
Moe is the first plan of the Three Stooges Dumbbell Training Packet. Moe deploys our
Fluid Periodization model, training the 5 fitness attributes of a Mountain Tactical Athlete:
Strength, Work Capacity, Tactical Speed, Explosive Power and Agility (TAC SEPA),
Endurance and Chassis Integrity simultaneously but with cyclic emphasis.
Required Equipment
Moe has a slight strength emphasis and deploys dumbbell or kettlebell movements. Your
strength work this cycle will concentrate on 6 exercises:
Youll train strength Monday, Wednesday, and Friday during the cycle. The strength
progression utilizes our Big 24 theory. Youll find your 3RM or 4RM for the listed exercises
in the first week, and use a prescribed weight for your working rounds which is slightly
lower than your assessment weight. Youll re-assess twice in the program during Week 4
and Week 7. In addition, youll train TAC SEPA or Chassis Integrity following the strength
portion.
If a movement does not specify it as a 1-Arm exercise, you will utilize dumbbells/kettlebells
in each hand. For exercises specified as 1-Arm, you will do the prescribed reps on each
arm/leg.
Example:
6 Rounds of 4x Dumbbell 1-Leg Hinge Lift: Complete 4x 1-Leg Hinges at the prescribed
weight on each leg (8x Total). This also applies to the Bulgarian Split Squat.
Tuesdays will be shorter sessions (40-50 minutes) and train Work Capacity and Chassis
Integrity. The Work Capacity will focus on our 5+5+5 minute model, for three short but
intense efforts with a short break between. We progress the volume and intensity
throughout the cycle.
Thursdays will train endurance utilizing single mode (running) training, and our multi-
mode gym based endurance training on alternating weeks. Youll progress up to 6 miles
running at a easy pace, and train for 60 minutes of constant movement in the gym. The
gym based endurance is no joke.
This plan uses dumbbell weights, as they simpler to scale for loading. You can use
kettlebells, you will just need to convert the weight. See the chart below for converting
dumbbell weight to kettlebell weight.
As an example, the first weeks strength progression is 20# below your assessment weight
for Rounds 4-8. With kettlebells, this means dropping two sizes. So if you used a 36kg
kettlebell in the assessment, you will use a 28kg kettlebell the following week.

You can rest, but dont drop the dumbbell during the 5 minutes, with the exception of the Mr.

Go slowly and deliberately for each exercise. I was averaging one rep every 8-10 seconds.
The step ups and shuttle run are also not for time. Grind through, dont sprint
