Because the economy sucks right now, I know two things:

1) People are tightening their budgets
2) Now more than ever, people need to exercise, as it is one of the best anti-depressant/anti-stress mechanisms out there.

Gym memberships, and certainly personal training, may not be affordable to many people any more. So I'd like to help out by offering a few one-day workshops for people who want to learn some new things, who want to get re-motivated, or who just feel like having a good workout for the day.

These workshops will last from about 1-2 hours or more in some cases. Be prepared to work hard. All ability levels will be accommodated. Please have a doctor's OK to exercise.

Cost will be $25/per person per workshop. For each guest you bring, you get a $5 discount (so if you bring 5 guests, the workshop is free for you!).

Time:  9:30AM

Duration:  About 90 minutes, maybe longer.

Cost:  $25 ($5 discount for each new guest you bring, so if you bring 5 guests, you train for free!)

Location:  Washington Park (Washington at El Molino in Pasadena; we will meet in the parking lot off Washington St.)  This will be an OUTDOOR WORKSHOP.  Please bring a towel and water. Please wear flat-soled shoes (such as wrestling shoes or Chuck  Taylors), or be prepared to train barefoot.  NO CUSHY SNEAKERS, PLEASE!!  If you have your own kettlebell, please feel free to bring it (and let me know that you are bringing it!).

Start advancing your kettlebell skills with the following drills:


-Viking Push Press

-Push Press

-Jerk

-Windmill

And more.  :)

You may want to bring wrist protectors to protect your wrists.  The easiest wrist protection device is men's tube socks-- just

cut off the tops and stick 'em on your wrists.
