Categories: Blog, New Year, resolution, Pressing RESET, Original Strength Jan 02, 2026

In today's fast-paced world, we are constantly bombarded with the latest trends and quick fixes for health, fitness, and weight loss. From complex workout routines to restrictive diets, the road to better health often feels complicated and unsustainable. But what if the secret to improved results in your workouts, weight loss, sleep, and overall health wasn't about adding complexity, but about returning to simplicity?

The human body is a marvel of natural design. It comes pre-programmed with a blueprint for resilience, strength, and vitality. The most effective way to achieve your best health is to honor and utilize this natural design. When you work with your body's built-in systems rather than fight them, you open the door to lasting and profound improvements.

The Simple Path to Superior Results

Why struggle with routines that feel forced when you can tap into the inherent movements and stability patterns you were born with? By focusing on fundamental human movements, you can build a strong, stable foundation that enhances every aspect of your well-being. This is where the concept of Pressing RESET comes in.

Pressing RESET is a methodology designed to restore the central nervous system's function and mobility through movements that reinforce your body’s original, foundational strength. Think of it as a way to reboot your operating system. When you Press RESET, you are telling your brain, "It's safe to move well again." This feeling of safety and stability is the key to unlocking better results across the board:

• Improved Workouts: A stable foundation enables greater force production and injury prevention, resulting in more effective training sessions.
• Effective Weight Loss: Moving well increases your capacity for activity and helps regulate metabolism.
• Deeper Sleep: Restoring balance and reducing tension in the nervous system promotes better rest and recovery.
• Overall Health: Increased resilience, mobility, and strength translate to a higher quality of life.

The journey with Pressing RESET is about moving a person from good to better to best. It’s a continuum of returning to the strength and mobility you already possess, and then building upon that strong base.

The Original Strength Big Five RESETS

The foundation of the OS Pressing RESET methodology is Original Strength's Big Five RESETS. These simple, powerful movements are designed to serve as a user's guide to their own body, restoring core stability and full-body communication. By incorporating these RESETS, you remind your brain that you are safe and able, inviting it to allow for more powerful and efficient movement.

The Original Strength Big Five RESETS are:

• Breathing: Restoring diaphragmatic breathing to stabilize the spine and calm the nervous system.
• Nodding/Head Control: Re-establishing the vital connection between the head and the rest of the body by activating the vestibular system.
• Rolling: A full-body movement that coordinates the upper and lower body and builds rotational strength, and just feels good.
• Rocking: The bridge between stationary stability and dynamic locomotion, promoting hip and shoulder mobility, posture, and spinal curviature.
• Gait (Crawling/Walking): The pinnacle of human movement, linking all the systems together for movement mastery.

Incorporating these RESETS daily is a powerful act of self-care. They are not just exercises; they are fundamental movements that help the brain feel safe and secure, which in turn unlock strength and mobility gains you may not have thought possible.
