Every movement that shows up in a Coresa session is written down here the way our coaches teach it: the two or three cues you would actually hear on the floor, the faults we see most, the easier version a beginner starts with, the harder version it grows into, and how the load gets chosen in a group of eight.
This is not an exercise encyclopedia. There are excellent databases elsewhere that show every machine in every gym. These pages cover the movements we coach, in the words we coach them with, so a member can revisit a cue between sessions and a newcomer can see exactly how this studio trains before walking in.
How to read a page
Each movement page follows the same shape. What it trains tells you why it earns a slot. The cues are the short phrases we repeat mid-set — three at most, because nobody can hold five thoughts while lifting. Common faults is the honest list of what goes wrong and how we fix it. The ladder shows the easier and harder versions, because almost no movement is an all-or-nothing test. And how it is loaded here explains when the weight goes up.
If the vocabulary is new — RPE, reps in reserve, tempo — the glossary translates it. If you would rather see full sessions built from these movements, the workouts library has ready-to-run examples.
The patterns
Strength training reduces to a handful of movement patterns — squat, hinge, push, pull, carry — plus core work that resists movement, conditioning that builds the engine, and small accessory movements that keep joints healthy. Train the patterns and you have covered what a body needs for hills, luggage, kids, ski season and old age. Everything below is grouped that way.

Common questions
Are these instructions enough to learn a movement alone?
They are enough to understand one and to practise the easy versions. Loaded barbell work deserves a coach's eyes at the start — that is not upselling, it is how technique is actually built. The pages exist so what you learn in a session survives until the next one.
Why isn't every exercise in the world listed?
Because this is a library of what we coach, not a database of what exists. A movement gets a page when it appears in our programming and we have real coaching notes on it.
What if my body doesn't tolerate one of these?
Then it gets swapped, not skipped — every page lists the common swaps. Tell your coach what your body objects to and the program changes shape around it.
