About this routine
Tony Robbins pre-stage routine takes place in the backstage area immediately before he steps out to address stadium sized crowds. To maintain his voice and physical energy across multi-hour seminars, Robbins follows a structured set of physical movements rather than waiting passively in a green room.
The routine begins on a mini trampoline where he jumps for 5 minutes to increase circulation. He then shifts into vocal warmups and spoken incantations for 3 minutes, shouting phrases loudly to engage his diaphragm. Next comes 3 minutes of rhythmic breathing paired with aggressive physical pumps to prime his posture.
In the final 4 minutes, Robbins uses physical state anchoring. He spins in full circles, pounds his chest, and claps loudly before taking a final breath and stepping onto stage. You can run this backstage sequence using an interactive morning routine timer or stage prep countdown.
Why this routine works
- Warms up vocal cords before extended public speaking sessions
- Raises physical circulation using high intensity mini trampoline movement
- Establishes mental focus using physical anchors and incantations
