First off, this is going to be brief. It's one of those weeks. And with the PCC in NYC coming up this weekend I've got quite a lot of stuff to finish up before heading up there. But I've been sitting on this OODA loop workout for too long, and want to share at least the basics of it with you. It's from a strategy portion of an upcoming project that I'm finishing, so putting it … [Read more...] about 100 Little Things Kettlebell OODA Loop Workout, Neuro-Grip Challenge is in Paperback!

A Fast and “Foxy” EMOM Workout for Kettlebells and Bodyweight
In the course of working on a top secret special video project (hinted at the other day on social media) I've recently reintroduced the sumo squat back into my regular workout rotation. For fun, I decided to add it into this little 12 minute EMOM workout - I basically did it as a break, as there is more workout to come this evening with some skill and more max strength work. … [Read more...] about A Fast and “Foxy” EMOM Workout for Kettlebells and Bodyweight
Short On Time But Craving Power: The Joy of 10-Round Simple Workouts
This week I created two different "10 round" workouts for two different people--at two different levels and who have different sets of challenges. Then of course after seeing how well they both did, and while remembering how much fun I have with these types of things, I had to do one too! 10 round workouts are a funny thing, and I like them a lot. Completing them results in … [Read more...] about Short On Time But Craving Power: The Joy of 10-Round Simple Workouts
Descending Ladder Kettlebell and Sandbag Burpees Workout With How-To Video

When I write a descending ladder workout for someone, … [Read more...] about Descending Ladder Kettlebell and Sandbag Burpees Workout With How-To Video
An Under 25 Minute Stacking Kettlebell Workout! Intermediate Level
There's always a few interesting moments in a stacking workout - the first is usually a false sense of security, or the quickly fleeting thought that you might have chosen a kettlebell that's a little too light. Cherish these moments, because a few minutes (or for some, seconds) that same kettlebell may feel mysteriously waaay heavier. Because I wanted to go straight though, … [Read more...] about An Under 25 Minute Stacking Kettlebell Workout! Intermediate Level
Backyard Challenge! Using Everything in a Sequence
Earlier today I was training someone with kettlebells and had also brought out a very cool pair of custom made paralettes from Ryan Pitts of Stronger Grip. They are excellent for l-sits as well as slightly raised push-ups (we even sometimes do push up walks up and down the two of them). Later I set up the slackline, then decided to get out the throwing knives and throwing … [Read more...] about Backyard Challenge! Using Everything in a Sequence

Tempo Changes, Throwing Stars, Strength, Skills, Systema
Flashing back to that time when I was out at Master RKC Phil Ross's gym and martial arts studio in Ho-Ho-Kus, NJ. He had graciously invited me to participate in coaching/demonstrating with the kettlebell and bodyweight class that was scheduled for the afternoon. Though I was no stranger to Phil's TOUGH workouts (seriously...) I didn't know what he had in store for the end of … [Read more...] about Tempo Changes, Throwing Stars, Strength, Skills, Systema

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.
