Jack Arnow is amazingly inspiring. I've had the chance to talk to him on a few occasions about one arm chin ups and other super advanced bodyweight exercises. Make sure not to miss his discussions about how Jasper Benincasa coached him through his very first one arm chin ups too! Now in his mid-60s, Jack is still going strong, teaching yoga and keeping up with his bodyweight … [Read more...] about Jack Arnow Shares a Lifetime of Body Weight Training and Here’s a New PCC Workshop Video!

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
Master RKC Max Shank and I had a VERY IMPORTANT discussion
Having interviewed Max for Dragon Door on at least two occasions, somewhere along the line we realized that we have a shared love for cheese. While many people are not consuming dairy right now, I wanted to know why Max was as passionate as ever about cheese. I know why I am, but wanted to hear his reasons. Through the MP3 file below, you'll discover that answer, but also … [Read more...] about Master RKC Max Shank and I had a VERY IMPORTANT discussion
Woah it’s been a while! Outsourcing, NYC, Al Kavadlo, Equinox, RKC Love and MORE!
Wow, I feel like a slacker after I see how long it's been since I've made a blog post. There are so many sitting in the queue half-finished right now that it's a bit embarrassing. Needless to say a lot is going on, and thanks to a well placed "inspired by the 4-Hour Work Week" article in an airline magazine, I've decided to experiment further with outsourcing. The … [Read more...] about Woah it’s been a while! Outsourcing, NYC, Al Kavadlo, Equinox, RKC Love and MORE!
NYC for Al Kavadlo’s Book Signing Party and Some Beyond Organic Product Reviews
Just got back from a great time in NYC catching up a little at Al Kavadlo's book signing party for Pushing the Limits - a little while ago, Al had invited me to be a part of the book with an intense photoshoot taking place all over Manhattan - click here for some of that story (scroll down to 3rd question).

Ask GiryaGirl: Convict Conditioning for Women, Why not 1,000 swings?
Last week was the NPE Mega Training seminar/workshop/event, and I was around to help out and occasionally answer questions, etc. at the Dragon Door table. If you were there, please say hello! I'm currently playing "phone tag" with some new local contacts and reviewing/organizing notes from all the really great presentations. Of course it's always a lot of fun to hear Dan … [Read more...] about Ask GiryaGirl: Convict Conditioning for Women, Why not 1,000 swings?
An Unusually Delicious Combination – Custom Chocolates with Peterbrooke Chocolatier!
Yesterday was incredibly cool - as I got to make chocolates with my friends at Winter Park's Peterbrooke Chocolatier yet again (here's a video of when we made Year of the Dragon spicy chocolates last time). The day before, while lamenting that a certain local health food store has NOT restocked their pink peppercorn and guarana dark chocolate bar, I had a sudden moment of … [Read more...] about An Unusually Delicious Combination – Custom Chocolates with Peterbrooke Chocolatier!
Heavy Stuff…. A Workout with Laurel Blackburn RKC Level 2 at Tallahassee Kettlebells
Good friend and fellow RKC Level 2 Instructor, Laurel Blackburn and I had a whole lot of fun this past weekend at her gym. She'd had a HUGE week - when she donated a training session to the Tallahassee Police TAC team - they showed up and apparently so did the press, and the local news, and and... it sounded like if someone had showed up with a food truck, Tallahassee … [Read more...] about Heavy Stuff….

A Simple Strategy for Healthy Eating
Ah, excuses... gotta love them - actually I do love to hear people's excuses because whenever I hear them, they give me ideas for blog posts! Also, it makes me think about my own excuses for things and how to overcome them. So yes, keep whining and giving me excuses :) Did you know I've been writing a cookbook of sorts? It's part cookbook, part stategy, part "truth or … [Read more...] about A Simple Strategy for Healthy Eating
