In response, the workouts I've been doing (and leading) have become simpler. One thing that initially attracted me to kettlebell training was this powerful simplicity. I love the … [Read more...] about A Little Bit of Everything Kettlebell Workout
We’ve Got Kettlebells…
Must admit, I'm a bit nervous about this - considering that everyone seems to be sold out. Many weeks ago, in a time that feels like a whole different planet, I bought a ton of kettlebells from a good friend and former Dragon Door distributor. I paid more than cost, and then I paid to have them shipped to me at great expense. The original plan was to include them as bonus … [Read more...] about We’ve Got Kettlebells…
Mixed Bag: A Kettlebell Workout With A Little Bit Of (Almost) Everything
Normally on Sundays, we'd meet up in a local park and knock out an advanced crazy challenge workout... but this whole virus situation has kind of put that on pause. While people are allowed to walk on the trails and such, technically the parks are "closed" and everyone has been discouraged from doing anything that remains stationary for any period of time. For instance as I … [Read more...] about Mixed Bag: A Kettlebell Workout With A Little Bit Of (Almost) Everything

600 Kettlebell Swings Workout AKA “The Bajillion Swings Workout”
It's a little less crazy than it sounds - or maybe we're more crazy?! But, before you hit "back" on your browser because you feel like I've finally lost it, let me explain that there's a very specific strategy at play in this workout. Something I've known for a while is that if you're going to do a lot of grip work (kettlebell swings or snatches, pullups, bodyweight rows, … [Read more...] about 600 Kettlebell Swings Workout AKA “The Bajillion Swings Workout”
Tips For Working From Home and a New Free Program!

A few weeks ago I was already thinking about the ramifications of people suddenly having to work from home for the first time.

An RKC-6 Review Plus Mini-Endurance Workout
This is a riff on an old favorite I mentioned the other day on social media. Here's a link to the post that was originally shared back in 2011 (when this site was just a little over a year old and running on Drupal 6).

Ask GiryaGirl: I Just Bought My First Kettlebell But It Might Be the Wrong Weight For Me…
I've just bought my first kettlebell and it weighs 10kg. I know that is lighter than the recommended starting weight 12-16kg, but I wanted to play it safe--and it's still heavy! I can't yet use it for doing overhead presses with one arm, so I am doing two-handed overhead press holding it in the same way as I would for hammer curls. Is this a good idea? Can I get stronger by … [Read more...] about Ask GiryaGirl: I Just Bought My First Kettlebell But It Might Be the Wrong Weight For Me…
