I think I'm a masochist.

I'm in pain (the "damn I got my a** kicked but it feels good" kind of pain) every time I have a session with Melody but I keep returning. When I'm doing the worm or crab walk, I'm dying in pain and wishing it would be over so I can go home and never come back.. but I still return.

OK, so my idea of fun may be a little different from yours. But here are some of my favourite ways to train. Who knows-- maybe they'll become your favourites, too! :)

This is a swing with a 53lb. kettlebell (half my weight). Whee!

I heart pushups. (Who doesn't, really?) They're way more fun on an upside-down kettlebell.

This is a double-wave pattern with a 40lb. heavy rope. World's most dangerous game of double-dutch.

This is a (slightly wonky) lunge while one- shouldering a 50lb. sandbag (almost half my weight).

Indian clubs are one of the best ways I know to work the rotational aspect of the shoulder. These things have been around for at least 5,000 years-- and with good reason.

Windmill with 35lb. kettlebell-- GREAT way to work the musculature of the torso, the shoulder, increase flexibility, and a whole bunch of other things.

O sledgehammer workouts, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways. Oh, I cannot. There are too many ways I love thee. Starting with torso strength and shoulder strength and cardiovascular endurance and going on and on from there.  Plus, it's fun to hit stuff.  :)

 

 

FUN WITH GYMNASTIC RINGS!!
