Monday I decided to give the beginners group a mini intro to the much beloved or hated (depends on the day and who you are...?!) Sissy Challenge. They went on the moderate/light sized kettlebell side of things, but if you want to ramp up the "fun" use a heavy kettlebell for this one: Start with your favorite Joint Mobility warm up exercises- We then continued with the … [Read more...] about Simplicity Workout

Turn Up the HEAT! Classic Challenge Revisited a Short but TOUGH Workout
Working from home is great if you have the personality for it. I'm very grateful to have been able to have this level of autonomy for such a long time.

A great trick to have up your sleeve no matter where … [Read more...] about Turn Up the HEAT! Classic Challenge Revisited a Short but TOUGH Workout

With the threat of nasty weather once again, we opted to have class at the cool East Coast Martial Arts Supply dojo.

Somewhat Advanced Park Workout – Bodyweight and Kettlebell
Do you remember the feeling you'd have as a kid after a good hard playtime at a park? After climbing on things, chasing your friends, swinging on the swings, trying stunts on the balance beam, etc? I experienced it again yesterday - and demolished the last half of a bottle of Amasai and a large bowl of crockpot borscht because of it.
