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!
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!
Slackline and Mace Experimental Challenge – Unconventional Outdoor Balance and Mobility Training [VIDEO]
It's that brief but magical time of the year in Florida where on a few days it is very nice outside. Soon, it will be unbearably hot, humid, and with afternoons full of steaming hot rain. BUT until that time, I try to get outside (in the shade at least) as much as possible. Yes, this is a silly graphic, but it's 100% true. I really enjoy observing the occasional bird of … [Read more...] about Slackline and Mace Experimental Challenge – Unconventional Outdoor Balance and Mobility Training [VIDEO]
Lots of Videos, Pull-Ups, Interviews, Monkey Bar Monday, Healthy Skoop, Sewing?!??
It's been fun to explore another part of the city a little, and I was thrilled to find that the fit trail on Lake Ivanhoe is well within a short walking distance of the coworking/makerspace. Here's what went down for Monkey Bar Monday by the way... do you have a fit trail near you? One of my favorite things to do with a small group or one on one client is to … [Read more...] about Lots of Videos, Pull-Ups, Interviews, Monkey Bar Monday, Healthy Skoop, Sewing?!??
How to Join the 1%… of Kettlebell and Calisthenics Strength
I forget what business summit I was attending but for good or for ill my behaviors as an iconoclast, contrarian, and overall weirdo were being verbally encouraged by the speaker. It's fun to finally be commended for going against the tide, of swimming upstream, and NOT doing what everyone else is doing. The speaker was saying that the much maligned "1%"--at … [Read more...] about How to Join the 1%… of Kettlebell and Calisthenics Strength
Travel Log and Workout:Visit to NYC Part 1 – Traveling Rings–with Video, Kettlebell & Sandbag, and MORE!
It was time to get out of town... if I have to spend too much time in Florida, I get antsy and the humidity and lack of any real relief from the heat was beginning to really wear on me. So after some clicking around and a few emails I managed to put together a little trip that would allow me to keep working some on writing and my usual business client responsibilities as well … [Read more...] about Travel Log and Workout:Visit to NYC Part 1 – Traveling Rings–with Video, Kettlebell & Sandbag, and MORE!
Three Kettlebell Get-Up Game Changers… (and a bonus controversial one) With VIDEO
Hope I’m not giving the impression that the get-up is chock full of pitfalls, peril, and potential catastrophe. But I do know that the get-up can be overwhelming and frustrating not only for kettlebell newbies but also for people trying to teach it. This post is aimed at both the people who may be new to the get up as well as the people who might be TEACHING the get … [Read more...] about Three Kettlebell Get-Up Game Changers… (and a bonus controversial one) With VIDEO
