# Impressive end skill first, then the drills

A fitness format, measured November 8, 2026 by Volume. https://tryvolume.app/working/fitness/impressive-end-skill-first-then-the-drills

Open on the advanced skill or peak pose, then break down the labeled drills that lead to it. It worked for 7 accounts, with a median of 8x their usual reach. Type: Angle. Seen as: Talking head, Video.

## Why it works

The payoff earns the watch, and the saveable drill list follows. Movementwmaia, flowwithabby, resetwithlauren_ and caracalisthenics all did this.

## How to make it

1. Open with a 1-2 second clip of the finished skill
2. Cut to the first drill
3. Number or label each drill
4. Match short cues to each beat

## Hook formula

These are the drills I use to learn [impressive skill]

## How this is measured

- Every post is compared with its own account's usual reach, not with other accounts. "14x their usual" means the post got 14 times the median views of that account's recent posts.
- TikTok videos and Instagram Reels are measured on views. Instagram carousels have no view count, so they are measured on likes against the account's usual likes, and say so.
- A post makes the library at 2x its account's usual or more. A format is a repeatable move (what is said or shown, or how it is edited) that several accounts used in breakout posts. It is listed here once it worked for 3 or more different accounts.
- Formats rank on how many accounts they worked for and how far above usual, damped so a fluke on one tiny account cannot outrank a format that worked for ten.
