The weather has finally started to get really nice in Florida, so we took the small group workout to the park today. The soft grass there is just fantastic for Primal Move, the Trifecta from Convict Conditioning Vol 2 and more. Truth be told, we've been doing an experiment and have been adding the Trifecta to our workouts for the past month. It's been so fun, and has been … [Read more...] about Carrying On: a Kettlebell and Bodyweight Workout

Jack Arnow Shares a Lifetime of Body Weight Training and Here’s a New PCC Workshop Video!
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!
The Slightly OCD Kettlebell and Bodyweight Workout
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

Woah it’s been a while! Outsourcing, NYC, Al Kavadlo, Equinox, RKC Love and MORE!

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
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 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?!)
