So, in the spirit of challenging the wisdom that there is no such thing as a stupid question...

I'm having a hard time zeroing in on exactly what the DMPM *IS*? Swings, pushups, goblet squats, and carries seem to be the consistent theme, but there seems to be quite a bit of variation on reps, sets, adding other exercises (TGUs, TRX rows), or not...

I'm not doubting the effectiveness of it (and I may give it a shot as my next semester's workout plan), but I'm having trouble wrapping my head around what the program is, exactly?



I might be wrong, but I think it's easier to think what the DMPM isn't. There are no percentages, no funky equipment and no machines; and it isn't too fussy about sets/reps/rest periods. It is just basic exercises mainly using bodyweight / kettlebells. You chose exercises that work your whole body (squat, pull, hinge, press, squat, carry, groundwork), do some work, have a shower and go home. Rinse and repeat.
