Kettlebell Variety Day
Yesterday I kept my kettlebell workout as simple as possible but not simpler.
I started off with 10 minutes of Turkish Get Ups with the 20 KG kettlebell. I spent a good 15-20 seconds on each of the fractions of the movement. Each Get Up required 2 minutes of long chest, long spine and packed shoulder....

I’ve survived the holidays with minimal damage to my body, soul and mind. Beginning with Thanksgiving and ending with New Year’s Day, the American holiday season is fraught with minefields. Ones you miss and ones on which you land solidly on top. I did manage to avoid a lot of them but the...
