I am looking for 7 more people to try my new “KB Fit Over 40” personalized coaching program.

If you:

• Have trouble motivating yourself and staying on track
• Find that “one-size-fits-all” – type programs don’t work for you
• Have a specific goal you are training for – an event, certification test, etc
• Just would like some additional personalized attention, motivation, and care

“KB Fit Over 40” personalized coaching could be the perfect fit.

Here’s how it works:

1 – Click the link below, and fill out the application.
2 – On filling out the application, we’ll review it, and reach out to schedule a short call if it sounds like an initial fit
3 – If we decide together that it’s a good fit to help you reach your goals, we’ll get payment set up, and I will send you over a new client intake questionnaire.
4 – You’ll fill out the questionnaire in it’s entirety … and when I get it back from you, I will design you a custom workout and nutrition plan.
5 – You’ll check in with me regularly (after every workout at least). I’ll help you tweak your workouts, your meal plan, etc to get to your goals as fast as possible. If you’d like to send me videos of you doing exercises so I can critique your form, I am happy to do that as well. And I’ll continue to work with and motivate you as we go.
6 – Each month I’ll send you a new workout and meal plan based on your goals, your previous month’s progress, etc

The other great thing about this is, it’s MUCH more affordable than hiring a personal trainer at your local gym, and in my (admittingly biased) opinion, much more effective.

Hourly rates for an *average* personal trainer start at $60 / session on the low end (I currently charge about 3x that)… so working with a PT a couple of times per week, you’re looking at LEAST $500++ per month in most parts of the country. Probably closer to $1000.

But with this program, I can get you BETTER results, in less time, working from the comfort of your own home / garage / backyard.

If we connect and it turns out to be a fit, for just $199.

Again, we HAVE to connect prior to you signing up, to make 100% sure it’s a fit. I will not consider signing you up until we touch base for a call.

But if you’re interested, the first step is to fill out the form linked below: http://bit.ly/1RTPFwT

Then I’ll review your app, and get back with you ASAP!

I have to get this off my chest.

Because it might be the #1 mistake people make when they are trying to build strength.

It’s not your fault, because you’ve been sold this lie by fitness marketers for the last decade.

But what I always see and hear about people doing, is constantly changing up their program and exercises, for the sake of “muscle confusion”, in hopes of making gains.

But if your goal is to press a bigger KB… or do more push ups… or do more pull ups… or up your deadlift…

The OPPOSITE of what you need is muscle confusion.

Simply put, if you want to get stronger, you must force your muscles to perform more work than they previously have.

It has to be in a systematic, planned, progressive, balanced, and specific way.

I don’t have time in today’s post to get into more details – much more info on the page below if you want to learn more: https://bit.ly/rawdynamicstrength

And if your strength gains have stalled out, now you know why ?

Here’s to finally making GAINS this summer!

Prisoners all over the world have put together highly effective strength-building routines they can perform in the tiny space of their cell, or with limited equipment in the yard.

And they are known to get and look REAL strong, despite their small space and little or zero available training tools.

This workout – called the “Deck of Pain” – is supposedly a favorite among prisoners, because they typically have a deck of cards handy.

What you do is take a standard deck of 52 cards. You assign one of the exercises below (or a variation) to each of the four suits. So you could have something like:

Clubs – Squats
Spades – Push Ups
Hearts – Pull Ups or Inverted Rows
Diamonds – Hanging or Lying Leg Raises

Then you start drawing cards from the top.

The suit tells you what exercise you’re doing, the number tells you the reps.

Face cards count as 10, aces as 11.

Draw the cards and perform the corresponding movement until you get through the whole deck!

…and start measuring this instead:

=> HRV (heart rate variability)

See, I recently came across an article on health.harvard.edu on that is SUPER cool and useful when it comes to:

• Improving performance
• Boosting testosterone
• Improving recovery time
• Curing performance anxiety
• Decreasing fatigue
• Helping sleep problems

…and more.

HRV is simply a measure of the variation in time between each heartbeat.

It is the best non-invasive measure of ANS (autonomic nervous system) activity and balance.

From the article (I’ll post the link below):

“If a person’s system is in more of a fight-or-flight mode, the variation between subsequent heartbeats is low. If one is in a more relaxed state, the variation between beats is high. In other words, the healthier the ANS the faster you are able to switch gears, showing more resilience and flexibility. Over the past few decades, research has shown a relationship between low HRV and worsening depression or anxiety. A low HRV is even associated with an increased risk of death and cardiovascular disease.”

So monitoring and working with HRV is something top performers in many fields do, because as you can see, it’s a key metric.

However, it can be tricky to track. The gold standard is to analyze a long strip of an electrocardiogram, the test we frequently do in the medical office where we attach wires to the chest. There are apps and heart rate monitors that do it too.

But the method, and entire method outlined in this course:

=> “Heart of Flow”

Is super simple and effective.

I recommend you check it out!

Let me know how it works for you.

And have a great day!

One thing that seems to be a HUGE help to the 40+ crowd that we specialize in working with are these “extra” 5 minute core workouts.

What we do is give our personal training clients these mini workouts to do on their own. The goal is to get three of these sessions in per week. They take about five minutes, and they don’t require any equipment.

(FYI – you can get a booklet with several of these workouts in it FREE – it’s called “Kettlebells for Abs – Advanced Results” – when you sign up for our 28-day “Dirty 30” KB Challenge that starts today: https://bit.ly/dirty30skb)

If you are in this 40+ age group, and you want to:

• Get stronger in every move you do
• Improve balance and stability
• Make it easier to do everyday activities
• Reach your overall fitness goals faster

I recommend you give this strategy a try.

Here is a sample one to start:

Extra 5 Minute Core Workout (no equipment required)

:30 plank hold
(no rest)
:15 side plank hold – left side
(no rest)
:15 side plank hold – right side
(no rest)
:30 V-sit hold
(no rest)
:30 glute bridge
(no rest)

Repeat one to two more time for a total of two to three times through the circuit.
