September 14, 2013 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

There's several blog posts in the works for you, but in the mean time, I wanted to make sure you didn't miss this interview with Zuzka Light for Dragon Door.  Having seen her material for years, it was a lot of fun to actually talk for an interview.   She's really cool, very down to earth and has SEVEN dogs!  I heard one of them barking a little in the background of our call!   … [Read more...] about An Interview with Zuzka Light, Internet Fitness Personality and Now an RKC Instructor!

Jack Arnow Shares a Lifetime of Body Weight Training and Here’s a New PCC Workshop Video!

August 17, 2013 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

Jack Arnow is amazingly inspiring. I've had the chance to talk to him on a few occasions about one arm chin ups and other super advanced bodyweight exercises. Make sure not to miss his discussions about how Jasper Benincasa coached him through his very first one arm chin ups too! Now in his mid-60s, Jack is still going strong, teaching yoga and keeping up with his bodyweight … [Read more...] about Jack Arnow Shares a Lifetime of Body Weight Training and Here’s a New PCC Workshop Video!

Two Unlikely Subjects… Kale Chips and Lunges?!?!

August 16, 2013 By Adrienne Harvey 1 Comment

Brads Kale Chips Packages

Don't these sound like well-behaved topics?!   Don't worry, I haven't gone off the goody-two-shoe deep end!  Until recently, even though I've liked kale for a long time cooked in dishes etc, and raw baby kale for salads, I hadn't had any especially good experiences with kale chips.    Especially the sort I tried to make myself in the oven a while ago which smelled horrible. … [Read more...] about Two Unlikely Subjects… Kale Chips and Lunges?!?!

The Slightly OCD Kettlebell and Bodyweight Workout

August 7, 2013 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

Huckleberry Fence

As mentioned a few days ago, my entire collection of kettlebells except for 3 particularly large ones "left the building" for the recent Orlando HKC.  On Sunday they came back and were hastily stowed in the storage area, and while this was kind of annoying, I had already started coming up with a fun idea on how to reorganize them that would involve the small group class. We … [Read more...] about The Slightly OCD Kettlebell and Bodyweight Workout

A Workout Adjusted for Chaos – and More Praise for Code Name Indestructible

CNIVenn

I've been chatting with Mike Krivka, lately about his awesome eBook Code Name: Indestructible. If you've been wondering if Code Name: Indestructible is for you or not, I've made a simple Venn diagram for you that should clear up any confusion. Those of you who happen to meet all three conditions, then seriously... buy it before you end up like that guy in the classic David … [Read more...] about A Workout Adjusted for Chaos – and More Praise for Code Name Indestructible

Me Al Amanda

Wow, I feel like a slacker after I see how long it's been since I've made a blog post.   There are so many sitting in the queue half-finished right now that it's a bit embarrassing.   Needless to say a lot is going on, and thanks to a well placed "inspired by the 4-Hour Work Week" article in an airline magazine, I've decided to experiment further with outsourcing. The … [Read more...] about Woah it’s been a while! Outsourcing, NYC, Al Kavadlo, Equinox, RKC Love and MORE!

Some Thoughts on Beverages and an Interesting Workout Combo

July 19, 2013 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

mint water

There's all sorts of discussion flying around the internet about hydration, dehydration, etc. etc.   personally having lived in Florida for a very long time I have always got a beverage of some sort at hand - or a bottle of filtered water.   According to Mavea, the company that makes my favorite water filters, I run through as much drinking water as a "normal" family of 4.   … [Read more...] about Some Thoughts on Beverages and an Interesting Workout Combo

A: It's a new program called Primal Move - check it out: ....Read MORE!
