I've noticed that my training has become waaaay more simplified in the past few months. I'm training for KB Sport, so my routine pretty much consist of swings, snatches, clean and jerk, a few assistance drills, plus some exercises prescribed to address my "issues." You do what matters, and if it really matters, variety for variety's sake just doesn't matter. I think the key to keeping the client interested is finding and focusing on their own passions and interests as motivation. If they know they are getting better and see/feel the progress, they probably tend to stay interested. Sandy, you bring up some good points.

I have been looking forward daily to the email workouts. I love the Hard Style. The only KB work I have been doing is swings, getups and goblet squats. It has been fantastic. I bought a heavy bag over the weekend and was surprised (WTH again) at how hard I could hit and how long I could go. I am glad to see a good perspective on the AOS cert, I was curious about it. Thanks for the great long distance instruction. Justin great article sandy. I have been looking forward daily to the email workouts. I love the Hard Style.

I haven't had that challenge too much here in B-more. I focus each session on reteaching what we will use in the workout and it seems to work well for me. I couldn't possibly hope that we would have proficiency in umpteen things. Train with purpose, Sandy Sommer RKC Dear Dale,

I do not like to jump from one exercise to the other myself however my clients and students get bored very quickly and if I do any one exercise linger than 45 seconds they just stop and want something else. ADD x 100 in South FL...:) Nice article Sandy.
