Sometimes it's helpful to have a workout that doesn't involve a ton of precise movements. Not all the time, but after a hard week or a set of high cognitive load tasks sometimes it's good to just go hard. This workout has outdoor and indoor variations, since everyone seems to be dealing with heatwaves and other challenges. I made up the fan bike version since I decided to test … [Read more...] about Oh HILL no… or Hill Yes – a Hill Sprints Workout (with an indoor alternative)

The Minimalist Kettlebell Workout
Here's one for when you might not have much time, or between days of serious strength effort when you just feel like you need to move!

Though I thought the whole thing sounded a bit strange, as some of you already know, I'm more than happy to try strange new healthy lifestyle things.

The Strange Friends Kettlebell Workout and Details on the Dragon Door Sale Page Kettlebells
A while back, I nicknamed a mis-matched kettlebell carry "Strange Friends". Not only are the two kettlebells used different sizes, they're also carried in different ways. It's a physical and mental challenge to say the least. I first tried it after doing a kettlebell windmill with a lighter kettlebell on top and a heavier kettlebell below.

Assault Fitness Assault Air Bike, Fan Bike
Oh I love to hate this thing. One of my advanced clients saw it and was aghast... "why do YOU have an exercise bike?!" She asked.
