The Bike part can be subbed with any cardio style exercise (toe touches, treadmill, elliptical, etc).
The Kettlebell swings can be subbed with a Dumbbell swing.
The Pull Ups Can be subbed by doing Pulldowns with a band or Push Ups.

workout is broken up like so:

*Bike for 2.5mins
*20 Swings

Repeat until 30mins on bike have been done.

Total will be:

Have fun & get in a Great workout!

It's about time!

Finally my voice is back! Only took several days but the laryngitis is disappearing. Since it is such nice weather out...

Temp wasn't bad but the winds were another story!

Workout of the Day a.k.a. WOD
Well today's workout Rx is simple to follow & hard to do. We are going to do:
45 Burpees
45 Plank to stand
(from elbows to hands)
45 Wall Squats
45 KB Swings
Split this up for 3 rounds of 15reps ea exercise & you should have a quick effective workout, but keep it INTENSE!

Well no voice to scream with but...

Well I am sure everyone is enjoying the silence while my laryngitis is here, but that doesn't stop the need for a little exercise! In case you were sitting around partially bored & had no idea of what to do, I am here for you~

Short & Sweet
150 Kettlebell Swings
[sub a dumbbell if need be]
30 PullUps w/ knees to elbows
[sub resistance band pulldown]
100 Bottom to Bottom Squats
[sub toosh touchers if need be]


*I did a breakdown of 15 KB Swings, 3 Pullups w/ knees to elbows, & 10 B2B squats. Cycling through 10 times, & keeping it intense is the key! Take a breather just long enough to catch breath & keep going! Do Not Sacrifice Form!
