Kettlebell and Calisthenics Workout
Heavy Kettlebells + Fajitas… A Workout and Simple Cast Iron Skillet Fajitas Recipe
Must admit, I'm really enjoying the lower humidity and slightly cooler weather here at my new place... and even though I was very active before, being able to just go outside and work out with very little fanfare (or audience) has inspired me to do even more. I felt like going pretty heavy with things last night, and ended up surprising myself a little. Given that I kept … [Read more...] about Heavy Kettlebells + Fajitas… A Workout and Simple Cast Iron Skillet Fajitas Recipe
Beginner’s Mind in All Things… a Workout and Notes from the Orlando Maker Faire
First off, I'm very happy with the decision to "finally get around to" ordering that 10kg kettlebell. GiryaGirlHQ now has doubles in 10lb, 8kg, 10kg, 12kg, 14kg, 16kg, 18kg, 20kg, 24kg, etc. Many of my very strong women clients and workout partners have been wanting access to the pair of 10kg, and they are just a great all-around size to work with. For advanced people, they can … [Read more...] about Beginner’s Mind in All Things… a Workout and Notes from the Orlando Maker Faire
Strategy Wednesday – Workout Wednesday…
A "Strategy Wednesday" has been long overdue, so I've blocked out a few hours today for it. Basically it's a reassessment of what's going on, what I can do better, and often what I can drop or discontinue. And... this applies to my lifestyle as a whole, not just business or entrepreneur stuff... but also fitness and food. Much to the annoyance of some, I see all of this as … [Read more...] about Strategy Wednesday – Workout Wednesday…
Busy Day Workout for All Of The Things!
My internet nerd friends get the reference there "all the things". Named that because well, there's mobility, calisthenics (pull-ups), kettlebells, and sandbag. Once again, Monday was being Monday and full of all kinds of interesting business related challenges. Still... I wasn't about to skip a workout because of that. After seeing a really fun Facebook Live video of some … [Read more...] about Busy Day Workout for All Of The Things!
Down the Ladder Kettlebell and Bodyweight Workout
Ladders, ascending, descending make for great workout structures. I like to use a descending ladder when going a little on the heavy side, so that each rep is super high quality every round. The following ladder workout is a little different since each round is has some unchanging "bookends". Each round begins with 20 kettlebell swings, and each round ends with one handstand … [Read more...] about Down the Ladder Kettlebell and Bodyweight Workout
The 32kg Sandwich Workout Scheme for Fun, Strength, and Power
I'd gotten it into my head that for a few workouts I wanted to do at least 100 swings with the 32kg kettlebell. For my size that sounds like a lot, but it's actually not too bad--after training with kettlebells for many years and having solid form with swings (which I am still improving...) There's no such thing as "perfect". Improvements can always be made. There's so … [Read more...] about The 32kg Sandwich Workout Scheme for Fun, Strength, and Power
The “Garage Band” Kettlebell and Bodyweight Workout
Long ago, when I was a teenager, kids would get together with various musical instruments, take over the family garage or basement and (usually) make a terrible racket. Sometimes decent bands would form this way, or decent enough bands. Though much like the style of exercise many of us do, the value was in the practice, and there might ultimately be no great competition or … [Read more...] about The “Garage Band” Kettlebell and Bodyweight Workout
Another EMOM Challenge AKA Oops I Did 200 Kettlebell Swings and 40 Pull Ups at 10PM
The subject of EMOM workouts came up on the Dragon Door forums recently and of course that made me immediately want to do one! It was late at night but I figured I had 20 minutes to spend wisely. After a short joint mobility warm up (feel free to throw in some light weight or no weight get-ups) I set up the interval timer app (I use Interval Timer Pro from Deltaworks) on my … [Read more...] about Another EMOM Challenge AKA Oops I Did 200 Kettlebell Swings and 40 Pull Ups at 10PM
Outdoor, Unconventional, Kettlebell, Bodyweight, and Odd Object Training Workout!
"There's a pattern to it of course, " I said when talking about what we would be doing. Last week I realized that I've somehow reverted to childhood activities with a few of my own workouts with friends. While most of my motivation is internally generated, lately I've been having a whole lot of fun inviting fit friends to "come over and play". Sometimes I'm testing out … [Read more...] about Outdoor, Unconventional, Kettlebell, Bodyweight, and Odd Object Training Workout!
