Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today we are going to hit a kettlebell / bodyweight combo.  Multiple reps to work up a sweat and get the heart pumping.  Remember to always focus on form rather than speed.  Speedy reps tend to become lousy reps as you tire.

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..

Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today we are going to use strictly body weight in our training session.  This is a great conditioning workout and a great mental test.  It is 100s.  Choose several body weight movements, and do 100 reps before you move on to the next movement.  Focus on quality reps, by the time you're getting close to that 100th rep you may be losing form and focus.  Don't.. Form and Focus..


Do NOT move on to the next exercise until you have completed 100 reps.
Take rest as needed.. 

Sit outs 50L/50R
Squats
Squat thrusts
Walk outs
Crunch
Mountain climbers
