Remember and reflect today.  Think about someone that you love or haven't spoken to in a while or years.  Maybe today is the day you reconnect with them.  Life is precious, and cherish the moments you have with those you care about to the fullest. Be Grateful.. Be Kind.. Be of Love and Service.. 

Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today we are hitting the steel and bodyweight conditioning movements for a strength and conditioning combo.  I love using bodyweight movements for sprints, it's a great way to raise the heart rate without actually running. :-)  We will be working explosive lifts, so after each sprint take a few minutes of recovery time.

Kettlebell Cleans / 20 second Fast Feet  
BB Spins / 20 second Split Jump
Kettlebell Lunges / 20 second Burpee
Dips / 20 second High Knees

Cool down, have a nice day.. El Rey and Manny always

Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today is super simple. One full body exercise that really taxes the central nervous system.  All you're going to do is st the timer and go.  You can pick your time limits.  I like to do one long set of continuous singles after I have completed 5 on each arm with out switching.  Drum roll... Turkish Get Ups.. This is Steve Cotter's variation on the basic movement http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGRBvom4Zrw

20 minutes of TGUs..

Cool down, have a nice day... El Rey and Manny always...
