This workout is based on timed sets, so you can work at your own level. There's a warmup joint mobility sequence, warmup circuit, and then a grouping of high intensity tabata interval combos. Take a break when you need it - this … [Read more...] about Follow Along, Do Anywhere Bodyweight Workout

I was saddened to hear that one of our dedicated, hard working, participants of the NC Systema Strength class would be traveling for the whole month of July... but also heard that he wanted to have some workouts to do on the road so that he'd stay fit for when he rejoined our class the following month. This also made me realize that I had a few travel workouts I'd sent to … [Read more...] about Three No-Equipment Workouts for When You’re On the Road!

Stuck Indoors? Here’s a Bodyweight Only Coordination, Strength and Cardio Workout!
As much as I hate to admit it, when the weather outside gets below freezing, I'm much less likely to work out outside. Then, one of my clients emailed asking for an indoor alternative to her regular outdoor activities. This workout is one that I created for a small Upper West Side Manhattan gym where I led classes for a week pretty much for the heck of it. (I wanted to get out … [Read more...] about Stuck Indoors?

Even with all the rain lately, I've managed to write (and do) quite a few really fun outdoor workouts While working out in a gym or indoors (the living room here is pretty much a gym at this point) is nice, especially in the summer, working outdoors is always a special treat, even in the 90-something degree NC summer. It cracks me up though, since moving here how … [Read more...] about Workout Wednesday: Workout Videos, Two Kettlebell and Bodyweight Workouts & Skill Training For Active Rest
Competitive Circuit Workout for Monkey Bars, Bodyweight Exercise, and Sprints
I've enjoyed variations of this little combo for a couple of years, it's always a lot of fun and can even feel a little bit like a game. Most recently a friend and I did the workout for 10 rounds followed by a more focused strength workout. If you have a group, you can even perform this as an interesting relay race. No matter how many rounds you choose, be sure to record the … [Read more...] about Competitive Circuit Workout for Monkey Bars, Bodyweight Exercise, and Sprints
A Monkey Bar Monday WORKOUT with Video!
Those who train with me know how much I love finding a new "fit trail"! Imagine the delight in finding a fit trail AND a large open field full of mostly soft grass, but not chemically treated to the point of the local soccer fields (those make me itch and that's freaky... and scary because... chemicals!). While this requires a little "scouting" to make sure no hands end up in … [Read more...] about A Monkey Bar Monday WORKOUT with Video!
I was a guest on the Red Delta Project Podcast, Plus a Bodyweight Only Workout, and a Video
A few days ago I had the honor of being the first ever guest on PCC Team Leader, Matt Shifferle's Red Delta Project Podcast. Once again, as when he was recently the guest on MY podcast, we had a ton of fun discussing some of our favorite topics, calisthenics, the PCC, great food, training strategies and more.
