A Small Group Kettlebell and Bodyweight Workout, Plus Q+A with Forest Vance on Kettlebell Challenge Workouts 2.0
With the threat of nasty weather once again, we opted to have class at the cool East Coast Martial Arts Supply dojo. This was a simple but interesting workout which I've adapted for online listing (removed a new ab drill that I need to make an explanatory video for before listing it here - or need to discover what in the world it might actually be called?!) We started with … [Read more...] about A Small Group Kettlebell and Bodyweight Workout, Plus Q+A with Forest Vance on Kettlebell Challenge Workouts 2.0
The Medieval Mini D.O.E. Workout… aka Track Day v5.0 for Kettlebell, Mace, and Running Track
A couple times of the year, an advanced client or two and I will decide to see where we're at in terms of cardiovascular performance. "Performance" is judged on perceived level of exertion, whether or how much we need to walk at off, how fast we recover, how long we can go non-stop, how long it takes total time (when we even think to time it), etc. Not terribly scientific … [Read more...] about The Medieval Mini D.O.E.

Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder?
Feels like we've been a little out of touch with each other lately, but I promise to stay in town for a couple weeks at least. The schedule has been pretty wild this month, not that I'm complaining. Not one bit. NOPE! Anyway, in case you haven't heard, the first ever PCC (Progressive Calisthenics Certification) Instructor Workshop last weekend was not only a ton of fun, but a … [Read more...] about Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder?
Kettlebell Workout: As Above, So Below
Until now, only a few people know that some of my better small group workouts begin as ideas scrawled on the back of coffee shop receipts in a post-espresso maniacal blur. Most of these ideas are legible only to other people who have terrible handwriting like me, and when I go back to review and refine them, it's not without some degree of amusement. By the look of my … [Read more...] about Kettlebell Workout: As Above, So Below

If you like goofy videos, then this is the post for you!

What is Primal Move?!
Q: What were you guys doing in the park that day? At first I thought it was maybe yoga or tai chi or tumbling crossed with field day. Then, you were all laughing too. What's going on?! A: It's a new program called Primal Move - check it out: ....Read MORE! A few members of my kettlebell small group, and a private client or two have tried some of the Primal Move … [Read more...] about What is Primal Move?!
Kettlebell and Bodyweight Circuit Workout – Descent into Madness (Descending Ladder)
Here's a fun one from the kettlebell small group yesterday. We reinforced the "kettlebell wagon" to make it more heavy duty - while it's rated for 700lbs, the manufacturers seem to have thought we'd only use it for bags of mulch, not heavy iron kettlebells... a precision cut piece of plywood did the trick, so look for more heavy swing/deadlift workouts in the near … [Read more...] about Kettlebell and Bodyweight Circuit Workout – Descent into Madness (Descending Ladder)
Tearing It Up on Tuesday – Kettlebell and Bodyweight Workout
First off - make sure you keep everyone in Boston in your thoughts. It was so hard to watch this happen, especially somewhere which has so recently shown me such great hospitality. Amber Lee of GiryaScope was right near where it happened, and I am just so thankful that my close friend and fellow RKC was safe and able to help others. You can read her experience here and I … [Read more...] about Tearing It Up on Tuesday – Kettlebell and Bodyweight Workout
