Pre-Season Workout

Today, on a rainy Sunday morning, 12 hearty bootcampers turned out for a kick-start pre-season workout. Great effort was made by all, and special acknowledgement goes to Hannah, my youngest camper, for best attitude. She did it all and with a smile to “boot”! Way to go Hannah!

Oh Yeah, that is me in my shoulder [...]

The WorkoutWeek in Review

I believe workouts should not only be strategic in targeting the goals and needs of my group, but also be fun. Who wants to do the same workout over and over again? Not only do you run the risk of over-use injuries due to the repetitive movements, but, let’s face it, predictability is not that [...]

Measuring Success

This is the Kettlebell Bootcamp Blog. And today was a Kettlebell challenge. After a long warm up, it was time for the 400 Benchmark workout – a timed workout which includes the basic movements of the bell.

The last time we did this “test” was on November 24th, a little more than two months ago. I [...]

Now, I'm Back....

Last Friday after bootcamp, I jinxed myself. As we were leaving, Dana said, “You have three days off.” I gave her a look that said yea, right and she corrected herself, “You have three days off from bootcamp but remember to do something each day – you have your workouts…” I left thinking I’d do [...]

One from the Buddy pages...

Resolutions are in full force. So I avoided the gym (and the crowds) and headed to the local high school track to get a good workout in today. Fortunately, I have a notebook full of workouts from Dana and went to the buddy workout section as today I had a buddy with me.

This particular one [...]

Damage Control That!

Truth is, the Post Thanksgiving Damage Control Workout was GREAT last Friday, but I have to admit, I really didn’t need it. Well, of course, I needed a workout but my Thanksgiving Meal Attack plan, and my Thanksgiving morning workout, which consisted of a five mile run and some time on the elliptical, left me [...]

Kettlebells and Intervals...back-to-back KILLER workouts

I’ve been trying to get caught up on life after a few crazy busy weeks. My plan was to blog about working out when out of town or making time when things just seem to be too busy. But Dana changed that plan. With two killer workouts the last two days, I just have to [...]

Remember When…

This morning during Tabata Tuesday, one of the movements was a “V-Up.” When we started Dana said, “Remember when we first started doing these?” Immediately I thought, “Yes, and I remember that I could barely do them.” Actually I think I said that out loud and maybe was speaking for some others, but even so, [...]
