Before I talk about what’s next, I want to start by saying thank you.
Order & Progress exists because you read, reply, and apply the ideas shared here. Your continued support, whether that’s purchasing programs, sharing posts, or simply reading each week, means more than you probably realize.
A few weeks ago, I shared a look back at the wins and lessons from 2025. It was a year of meaningful progress, both personally and professionally. But this newsletter isn’t about reflection, it’s about where we’re headed next.
Here’s what I have planned for the next 12 months.
More Training Programs (Built for Real Grapplers)
The core mission of Order & Progress isn’t changing: build resilient, capable bodies and minds that endure on the mat and in life.
In 2026, that means more focused, high-value programs:
-
BJJ Club Program 3
The long-awaited third heavy club program developed in collaboration with Wildman Athletica. This will continue the progression many of you have been asking for. -
Hip Mobility
A dedicated program addressing one of the most common limitations for grapplers—hips that don’t move, load, or recover well. -
Kettlebell Minimalist Strength
Efficient strength training designed for busy athletes who want maximum return with minimal equipment and time.
Each of these will follow the same principles you’ve come to expect: minimalist, high-value, and directly transferable to grappling.
YouTube: Long Overdue, Finally Happening
I’ve put this off far longer than I should have.
In 2026, Order & Progress will have YouTube content to complement the newsletter and programs, including:
-
Exercise demonstrations
-
Sample programs
-
Follow-along workouts
-
Educational breakdowns of movements and training concepts
This will allow many of the ideas I write about to be seen, not just read, and make the material more accessible to more people.
Here’s one I posted recently, please like and subscribe to help the channel grow.
New Content Areas I’ll Be Exploring
Alongside the usual topics of strength, mobility, and resilience, I’ll be expanding into several areas that I believe are under-discussed but critically important for grapplers:
-
Strength endurance
-
Programming principles (how to structure training, not just exercises)
-
Plyometrics and force absorption
-
Foot and lower-limb health
-
Neck strength and resilience
These topics all tie back to the same goal: staying hard to break.
Physical Products Are Coming Back
Many newer readers don’t know this, but Order & Progress originally started as a BJJ apparel brand in 2013.
I launched it because I didn’t like the loud, overdone designs in combat sports at the time. Thirteen years later, not much has changed—and the quality of most training gear has only gotten worse.
I plan to fix that.
The first physical product drop in 2026 will include:
-
No-gi gear
The focus will be on clean design, durability, and gear that actually holds up to hard training.
New Logo & Website
As the scope of Order & Progress continues to evolve, the brand needs to reflect that direction more clearly.
In 2026, you can expect:
-
An updated logo
-
A faster, cleaner, more responsive website
-
A better overall experience across programs, content, and products
I’d Like Your Input (And I’ll Give You Something Useful)
Finally, I want to understand what you actually need most right now.
I’ll be sending out a short survey soon. In exchange for completing it, you’ll receive a free isometric training program—something you can use immediately to build strength and resilience with minimal stress on the body.
Your feedback will help shape future programs, content, and products so they serve you better.
Final Thoughts
Order & Progress has always been about the long game—steady development, disciplined effort, and building something that lasts.
2026 will be about refinement, expansion, and deeper usefulness.
Better tools for training and life.
Thank you again for being part of this.
More to come soon.
