A lot of very cool things are happening at the moment, which is great, but it has kept me from writing as much as I'd like to here! So in order to make up for that this will be a full featured fun post, hopefully including topics you're jazzed about as much as I am. First off, I recently had an email inquiry: "what else can you do with Neuro-Grips besides push-ups?" I didn't … [Read more...] about Live from downtown Durham, answers to Neuro-Grip questions!

Orlando HKC Recap, a Shoulder Tip Video and Other Fun Stuff
It was really super that Senior RKC Beth Andrews could come down to Orlando and lead what was possibly the best HKC we've ever had. It was held at Signature Fitness where a couple of my very good friends work. The amusing part was their gym didn't really have a whole lot of kettlebells... so between two cars, we managed to transport all but three of my collection over to the … [Read more...] about Orlando HKC Recap, a Shoulder Tip Video and Other Fun Stuff
Tips For Working From Home and a New Free Program!
And Now for Something Completely Different! Well, not entirely - the overall message is the same - being strong and being our best... no matter what! A few weeks ago I was already thinking about the ramifications of people suddenly having to work from home for the first time. Or even just the realities of a large number of people being cut off from their regular routines. It … [Read more...] about Tips For Working From Home and a New Free Program!
Workout Wednesday: Workout Videos, Two Kettlebell and Bodyweight Workouts & Skill Training For Active Rest
Even with all the rain lately, I've managed to write (and do) quite a few really fun outdoor workouts While working out in a gym or indoors (the living room here is pretty much a gym at this point) is nice, especially in the summer, working outdoors is always a special treat, even in the 90-something degree NC summer.

A Monkey Bar Monday WORKOUT with Video!
Those who train with me know how much I love finding a new "fit trail"! Imagine the delight in finding a fit trail AND a large open field full of mostly soft grass, but not chemically treated to the point of the local soccer fields (those make me itch and that's freaky... and scary because... chemicals!). While this requires a little "scouting" to make sure no hands end up in … [Read more...] about A Monkey Bar Monday WORKOUT with Video!
The Fountain of Youth?!
My 34th birthday is approaching rapidly this week. In fact, I was expressing some excitement after one of my boot camp classes in that there would be a special "birthday workout" for them based around the number. Apparently, unbeknown to me, there has been intense speculation among a few boot campers as to my actual age. (Just ask me, ladies, it's all good - seriously, its … [Read more...] about The Fountain of Youth?!
Courthouse Calisthenics Workout….
So, I was called in for jury duty, which of course caused me a whole lot of tooth-gnashing and concern... would I get stuck on something for days and days (my greatest fear), or would they let me go? The good news - after making me and about 900 other people sit around for most of the day, they ended up not needing me. Considering the proliferation of snack machines and … [Read more...] about Courthouse Calisthenics Workout….

A quick personal note about why kettlebells and body weight training work so well for me….
Some days are crazier than others, some are not crazy at all - those are usually the ones I reserve for massive amounts of sleeping. One of the great things about kettlebell and bodyweight training that has been SO crucial for me is the efficiency of the training sessions themselves. No more boring hours and hours at the gym, not to mention travel time to and from - which … [Read more...] about A quick personal note about why kettlebells and body weight training work so well for me….
