Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today we are going to hit the Cotter Crusher with the Bulgarian Bag.  It is a great 2 person training session in a you go / I go format.  You can adjust the exercises as you see fit.  For example do 3 rounds of presses, squats, and snap downs.. then switch to lunges, spins, and hammer curls for 3 rounds.. etc.. Changing it up on the fly is fine.. Great full body strength and conditioning go..

Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today we are going to hit a bodyweight blast.   8 exercises in a circuit format on the clock.  Push yourself through each movement, and maximize reps.  After a hard day of weight training, bodyweight days are a perfect compliment, and help work all of the little stabilizers that are missed when you hit the big muscle groups..

Warm up with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today's training is all about love.. Since we love to train, we have covered one base.  Pick 7 exercises that you love to do today (or don't mind so much).  14 reps of each for 7 rounds with as little rest as possible in between.  It is our St Valentine's day circuit.  Great endurance and strength.  Since I love kettlebells and the Bulgarian bag, I am going to train with both today.


7 rounds of 14 reps

2 hand swings
BB spins 7R / 7L
BB Hammer curls
Kettlebell sumo squat / upright row
Kettlebell figure 8 static hold 7L / 7R

Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today we are going to have a bit of fun training.  Everyone enjoys the grab bag circuit.  Its very simple put 10-20 different exercises down on paper, and throw them into a bag.  Pick out 5-10 and you have your circuit.  You can do it for reps or for time.  Make sure that you are equitable between your strengths and weaknesses.  Always put several movements in there that you struggle with mentally and physically. So for sure there will be OH squats in mine... Have some fun and have a great training session.
