CONTEST OVERVIEW

24-Day Challenge Contest

Start Date: Monday November 29^th

End Date: Wednesday December 22^nd

Rules: Each contestant must meet with me prior to start of class on the 29^th to have measurements taken. Measurements can be taken anytime between now and the 29^th. Each contestant can contact me to set up a time, it should take about 5-7 mins.

Measurements will then be retaken at the end of the competition to determine winner. Again, we will set up the time prior to Wednesday, December 22nd class.

Winner: The winner of the competition will be determined based on body fat (BF) percentage lost. I will calculate goals using the ideal body fat percentage for the contestant’s age and sex. The contestant that gets the closest, percentage-wise, to their ideal BF% will win the competition. As an example: Ideal BF for contestant 1 is 10%, he or she is currently at 20%. After 24 days he or she loses 4% BF and are at 16% (40% towards goal). Ideal BF for contestant 2 is 20%, he or she is currently at 40%. After 24 days he or she loses 6% BF and are at 34% (30% towards goal). Contestant 1 would win because they finished closer to their ideal BF % than contestant 2, even though contestant 2 lost more.

Prize: Winner gets $25 off next months class fee.

Who is eligible? All class members are eligible, plus any of your friends. Pass this on to your friends. They can come try out the class if they want to, but do not have to. They just need to meet with me to take measurements. If they win, they would get $25 Cash

I’ve attached the instructions for the 24-Day Challenge so that you can familiarize yourself with the steps of the program. As you can see, you need to eat. This isn’t a radical or harsh plan. It is a straightforward and healthy program that is simple to follow. The Challenge does not include “diet pills”. All Advocare products are safe, independent third-party laboratory tested and could be (and are!) used by professional or Olympic athletes. If you have any specific questions, I am happy to address them.

11/15

Monday's class saw the return of former member Melissa. Welcome back! The workout was very simple, but was quite brutal. Bodyweight warm up, Turkish Get Ups, then 5 rounds of 4 lifts. Each round was 30 seconds with a 5 second transition time. Rest 70 seconds between rounds. I know it was tough, but you guys did great! Keep getting better. What have you done to better yourself?

Welcome

We have a new member, Megean. Welcome to the group. One more person making the right decision to improve their health and wellness. What have you done to better yourself?

New Exercise

Tonight we learned a new exercise, the Double Snatch. It was picked up rather easily and well liked. Now it gives us another exercise to use. We will continue to practice this and become very proficient. Great Job tonight

The Truth

If only more Doctors were this straight forward and honest with their patients. Too many people make excuses to not exercise. What excuses are you making TO exercise?

10/13/10

Lots of double presses last night. One of my favorite exercises. It is a great exercise to build ab/low back strength in addition to the shoulders. Holding the weights overhead while standing will force your abs/back to engage to keep you balanced (not bending backwards or falling forward). I love overhead lifts, they do so much more than you think they do.

10/11/10

Things are settling back in. The crazy summer schedules are over and now its time to dig in and get some serious work done. Those that have been showing up consistently are really noticing the difference in their bodies, they are liking it. I am ready to help more people get this feeling. Don't wait another minute to get started

CLASS TIMES CHANGING

Classes on Monday and Wednesday will move from 6:30PM start time to 6:15PM. This takes effect on Monday Oct 11th.

Hometown Friend Joins

Tonight was the second night for a hometown friend. Her brother and I were very good friends all through high school and still keep in touch. Funny how things work out. She is catching on quickly and doing quite well.

The rest of the class is really doing well. Its awesome to be able to say that this group can all swing a kettlebell very efficiently. And they can see when a swing looks bad. They really are a great group. Keep it up!

NO CLASS LABOR DAY

There is no class on Labor Day, Monday Sept 6th. The studio is closed so we will be unable to have class. Hope everyone has a safe and fun weekend.

Its been a while

Its been a while since I've posted. Todays class was pretty simple but brutal and effective. Did a quick warm up, then some Get-Ups. Moved to our main work set next which involved snatches, windmills, and squats. Finished with some timed swings and Get-Ups.

Great Work tonight guys

NO CLASS NEXT WEEK

There will be no classes next week on July 19th or 21st. I will be gone on my family vacation. Enjoy the break! See everyone on the 26th!

Awesome Day

Awesome Job Tonight

Class did an awesome job tonight. The KB snatch is looking much better. Everyone just about has good enough technique that we will be working into some timed sets soon. Windmill still needs some work. The best thing about tonights class was that the last timed set we did, everyone's technique got better, even though they were tired. Great Job guys!

NO CLASS WEDNESDAY MAY 19th

There will be no class this Wed, May 19th. I will be in St Paul at a kettlebell workshop.

Wednesday

Tonight was another great class. Reviewed the snatch. Just like anything, it will get better with time and practice. There were definitely some good reps by all tonight. Now it will just be a matter of getting all reps to be good. I have no doubt it will happen soon. Everyone listens very well and has been working very hard.

Worked some more with double KB's. We did a building set. Did one lift, rest, same lift and added one, rest. Kept going until we were doing 6 straight lifts. Everyone was pretty winded by the end.

Great Job Class!

Doubles

Tonight the class was introduced to a few double KB lifts. We worked the double swing, clean, and press. The swing and clean really got their heart rate up.

Next we worked the snatch for the first time. I was very impressed with how good everyone did for their first time. Definitely will need to keep practicing, but it won't be long and they will all have it.

To finish the evening we did timed sets. We broke down the get up into several parts and worked them for time. After we did both R/L, we did a set of timed swings before moving onto the next part of the get up.

All in all, great work by everyone.

Monday in class we started to learn the clean. It will take some practice, but it won't be long. Continued to work on the swing and get up.

Tonights Class

Tonight was the first class. It went very well. Victims learned the deadlift, swing, get-up, and the goblet squat. Monday classes will continue

FREE CLASS

What: Intro to Kettlebells: Free Basic Skills Class

What is a kettlebell you may ask? For those of you that are not familiar, a kettlebell is a traditional Russian cast iron weight that looks like a cannonball with a handle. It is the ultimate tool for taking your all around fitness to the next level. The kettlebell has gained a lot of popularity in recent years but, in fact, the kettlebell has been around since 1704. The free basic skills class will certainly give you a great workout but most importantly, it will give you a foundation of kettlebell skills that will enable you to safely and effectively achieve optimal cardiovascular and weight training goals.

Class will last about 50 to 55 minutes. I would encourage you to show up 10-15 minutes early if possible to familiarize yourself with the kettlebell and to give me a chance to meet you.
