Doing 500 Kettlebell Swings & the Red Delta Project Podcast

August 8, 2017 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

fun with a 40kg Dragon Door Kettlebell

First off, it's always a huge honor to be a guest on a podcast, but especially on Matt Schifferle's Red Delta Project podcast yet again. It's been a while since we've chatted, but we made up for lost time quickly. Check it out on iTunes: Exploring Freestyle Workouts w/ Adrienne Harvey - The Red Delta Project Podcast or his website. 40kg of fun... One of the things I … [Read more...] about Doing 500 Kettlebell Swings & the Red Delta Project Podcast

Drone’s Eye View and Breaking Down the Get-Up …Even if You Already Know It

July 24, 2017 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

Adrienne Harvey of GiryaGirl.com captures kettlebell get-ups from a drone!

Recently I've had the privilege of adding a couple of local personal training clients to my schedule. Since moving here I haven't had a chance to really start up a small group with a local gym yet, and will probably continue to hold off on that for a few more months.  Still finishing up the book after all (my fault since I keep adding things to it...it's becoming a … [Read more...] about Drone’s Eye View and Breaking Down the Get-Up …Even if You Already Know It

Another Epic Photoshoot with Jon Bruney and Dragon Door in Chicago!

March 24, 2017 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

Neuro-Grips and Neuro-Mass Photo shoots 2017 and 2013

Almost four years ago to the day, we had the photo shoot for Jon Bruney's awesome book, Neuro-Mass. It was and still is probably the most challenging photoshoot I've ever experienced--it was two days of some of the most difficult and creative strength moves I'd seen at the time. The incomparable RKC Team Leader, PCC Instructor, and shredded ab-monster Matt Maher was on that … [Read more...] about Another Epic Photoshoot with Jon Bruney and Dragon Door in Chicago!

YES! Neuro-Grips are BACK!!

Neuro-Grips are Back In Stock Version Two

Neuro-Grips are FINALLY back in stock, honestly, I was pretty bummed out that they were not available for Christmas gift giving.  But they are back now! Ever since I first tried the rough prototypes (one was even slightly not level) back in 2013 or so, I've used them in my training.  And yes, if you go to the Neuro-Grips page you'll see someone very familar in the demo photos. … [Read more...] about YES!

November 11, 2016 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

GiryaGirl Blog - Kettlebell workout and how to assemble the Dragon Door Bodyweight Master Free Standing Pull Up Bar

Realized that I should probably space out the podcasts for you! There's two more episodes on the way soon, but in the mean time, I wanted to share a short workout (or what could be the meat and potatoes part of a session) I did last night. I had limited time because of a bunch of computer related tasks and more importantly a friend was coming over to walk her puppies … [Read more...] about Quick Kettlebell Workout, How to Assemble the Dragon Door Bodyweight Master Pull Up Bar, and More Exercise Ideas

Getting Infused with Vitamins… an Experience with IV Vitamin Therapy [Video Included]

July 7, 2016 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

Trying out IV Vitamin Therapy at Asim Medical

Found myself in a bit of a perfect storm... back to back workshops, more travel than normal, a horrendous sleep schedule (totally my fault). When I got back home, all of this led to the ever-dreaded "summer cold".  Combine this with the fact that I'd been looking for a good excuse to try iv vitamin therapy (I needed an excuse, the cost was slightly outside my "what the heck, … [Read more...] about Getting Infused with Vitamins… an Experience with IV Vitamin Therapy [Video Included]

Whew! So Much Going On! Here’s a Recipe and a Workout

March 8, 2016 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

Salt And Kelp Granules Kitchen

Q: "When do you sleep?" A: "That's classified." I was way too excited about these ingredients at 1AM while making this video... But in all seriousness, like many of you I have a pretty full tilt, nearly 24/hr day.  As a friend of mine out west is now really discovering, exercise is a privilege.  He injured himself and is having to take time off. Already we're seeing … [Read more...] about Whew! So Much Going On! Here’s a Recipe and a Workout

Monkey Bar Monday – Exploring Bar Hangs For Time [Video]

November 16, 2015 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

Monkey Bar Obstacle Course

There's a very cool (and very recommended) progression in Convict Conditioning Vol 2 all about hanging from one or two arms (along with towel hangs which are amazingly challenging) to develop grip strength, and I've been doing bar hangs at home about every other day usually for a minute or more. Current PR is 1 minute 30 seconds, and while I could have gone a little longer, I … [Read more...] about Monkey Bar Monday – Exploring Bar Hangs For Time [Video]

A Short But Fun Underground Strength Inspired Exercise Break… After an Adventure!

October 12, 2015 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

Post Workout Grungy

It's been an interesting weekend... getting a lot done, maybe a little too much because as the sun started to go down today I found myself wanting to go outside and play for lack of a better term.  Some may refer to this as a "workout" but considering what I did and how fun it was I think it was more like a slightly more grown up version of playing in the yard.  Unfortunately, … [Read more...] about A Short But Fun Underground Strength Inspired Exercise Break… After an Adventure!
