A Challenge, A Weekend Workout, Chocolate Reviews and Other Important Stuff

December 18, 2012 By Adrienne Leave a Comment

Its always fun to visit other gyms, hang out etc. Inside is very nice, but of course we had to get grungy and throw tires around, push prowlers, and swing kettlebells instead. Inside we did a Primal Move warm up, played with the really great pull up bar setup (I managed to do another couple muscle ups), and then some really weird pull ups on this very bizarre and hard to hang on to thing from Rogue called a “dog bone.” I’ll add photos of that later today. Anyhow here’s what we did outside!  Huge thanks to David Crump, a highly skilled local personal trainer and HKC here in Orlando – you can visit his site at DC-Training.net

 

This was definitely a lot of fun… In other news, I reviewed a new chocolate bar that’s just chock full of the superfood maca, please check that out!  It was really tasty, and sorry I didn’t save any for you.   BUT there will be more chocolate reviews soon as I also just found some raw cacao beans, and a great cocoa powder that’s really off the charts good.   Look for those later this week.

AND, I wasn’t really going to mention it online, but I’m doing a sort of unconventional “challenge” along with using the new Convict Conditioning Log Book approach to my training.  I’m nicknaming it the qi challenge… basically I’ve decided to practice a minimum of 10 minutes a day of qigong exercises, and to spend at least 10 minutes researching a related topic.  Doesn’t sound like a lot, but added onto what I already do on a given day – AND 10 minutes of my undivided attention in researchmode is a frightful thing indeed.  And as we all know – or should know – little bits every day add up.   Its all good!
