April 15, 2016 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

podcast logo

In the corner at Bud Jeffries and Logan Christopher's now legendary Super Human Training 2 Workshop in Tallahassee, FL, Ryan Pitts had carefully set out a number of totally-new-to-me but super interesting looking pieces of strength and grip training equipment. Needless to say we all got hooked on using them at that workshop. I ended up picking out several items which I've … [Read more...] about Podcast with Ryan Pitts, World Class Craftsman, Mace Swinger, Grip Strength Expert

December 29, 2015 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

More GetUp Tips

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

December 24, 2015 By Adrienne Leave a Comment

KB Workout

A few weeks ago I shared the little pancake image at the end of this post and a brief explanation on this blog post: The "Short Stack" kettlebell workout.  But then realized that some folks might like to see what it looks like all put together.  It always makes sense on paper, then of course translating it to real life can be a different manner entirely.  Here's a video of … [Read more...] about A Video for the “Short Stack” Kettlebell Workout…

Workout Weds

First of all, if you haven't already checked out the new RKC … [Read more...] about Workout Wednesday with a Kettlebell Technique Tune Up, Workout and Single Kettlebell Combination!

The Key to the Kettlebell Swing: The Hip Hinge

April 14, 2015 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

Kettlebell Swing Hip Hinge Drill

No matter how much we talk about the hip hinge, revisiting it is always time well spent.  In fact it's a good idea to revisit the hip hinge whenever your kettlebell swing just isn't... feeling right or if you're wondering why a weird little 5'3" 125-130lb almost-middle-aged woman with a questionable hairdo is able to swing a 106lb kettlebell. The kettlebell swing is a simple … [Read more...] about The Key to the Kettlebell Swing: The Hip Hinge

Pull Up GiryaGirl 2015

A lot has been said on the internet lately about YES, women CAN do pull-ups... and well for most of you who read this site, that's hardly cause for a headline. As someone who's not a huge fan of gender-fying everything and who also realizes that there's all KINDS of people who struggle with pull ups, I'd like to present some ideas that are useful for nearly … [Read more...] about Small Things to Practice for Your First Pull Ups, or for Stronger Pull Ups in General…

Clutch Flag Mini Tutorial and Video!

December 4, 2014 By Adrienne Harvey Leave a Comment

Clutch Flag Video Tutorial Blog Post

Recently, a friend of mine asked about the grip for the clutch flag.  Given that this interesting move is one of my favorites to coach, and one of the most difficult to describe in just words (typing or even on the phone!) it seemed like a good idea to make a video.  But before we get to that, I wanted to mention a little bit of backstory. Quite a while ago, even before the … [Read more...] about Clutch Flag Mini Tutorial and Video!

Zooming down I-4 today on the way to meet up with some friends who have fantastic production company here in town when I hear my phone make that message sound.   Finally after parking I see that its from a good friend and fellow RKC Level 2, and she's written something slightly cryptic: "How do you roast vegetables?" Immediately thinking of roasting about 5 different veggies … [Read more...] about Ask GiryaGirl: How Do You Roast Vegetables?!

Guacamole Day Recipes

I am a guacamole fiend. Don't even try to share a bowl of it with me at a restaurant, go ahead and order your own - before things get.... awkward.  Can't help it, and I'll apologize profusely, but I won't stop.   Then a friend on twitter posted that today was National Guacamole Day today - so I knew that SOMETHING would have to happen to commemorate this oh so important day.   … [Read more...] about September 16th….
