Warmup with joint mobility, foam roller, and dynamic movement.  Today we are going to hit a great strength training workout.  We will utilize 2 kettlebells, or use dumbbells if they are all you have access to for training.  The reps are going to be as strict as possible.  Try not and dip or push press (use a manageable weight). Get a good warmup and get going.

Today we honor those men and women that currently protect our freedom.  Those who have fallen protecting our freedom.  Those who have served to protect our freedom.  We will put ourselves in an uncomfortable situation.  One where you will question, "Why are we doing this?"  It is then that you need to think about the person next to you.  Inspire them with your effort.  Inspire them with your desire to help the team by helping themselves.  Push through the mental "I can't" hurdle in your life, and be your best you.  Please take the time and watch this speech by Admiral McRaven.  Remember, "Don't ever ring the bell."

Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement and foam roller.  Today we are going to hit a training session from one of my mentors Ken Blackburn.

"Here is a challenging, straight forward and applicable circuit I put together for my MMA, BJJ and Kettlebell Sport folks.
Sprawl + Deadlift - 10 reps
Bulgarian Bag Spins - 10 reps (5 per side) 
*Complete for a continuous 5 min set. Rest 1-2 min and repeat for 2-3 sets.
Mitch demonstrates the above with 2 x 32kg kettlebells and a 50lb Bulgarian Bag. 
Involves multiple movement patterns at a high heart rate while simultaneously targeting shoulder/thoracic mobility."

Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today we are going to sling some steel. Short reps, heavy weight, and long sets.  There will be a small bit of conditioning, that will just be a by product of the training session.  This is a great you go/I go training session to do with a partner.  There is ample rest in between sets.  Make sure that you are safely increasing your workload after each set.  Form and stability over quantity.
