Get ready to take the TGU Challenge in December

I always begin by saying this is my favorite grind. I will start my own personal challenge on the 1st of December .
Do one TGU on the 1st , 2 on the 2nd, etc. Start on the floor to upright position and down again completes your 1st one !
Take your measurements and take a mental note of how strong you are now and how much more you will be after the challenge.
Remember this can be a body weight only exercise .Use a shoe balanced on your fist to keep you in aline .

Good Luck

IT'S A BOY !

We have a new little kettlebell baby born Saturday to Gretchen and her husband, 6lbs 5 oz . Gretchen was a real trooper,she trained with kettlebells up into her 8 month and contributes her controlled weight gain to kettlebell.
I have had a few women in our groups that are or got pregnant . Their doctors have all approved of safe training with the bells if they have done it before. So do devise a plan before you plan to get pregnant along with good nutrition .

Growing in dimension

I got an email some time ago. It was about being multi- dementional !
I thought about it and it seemed this is were my life was going. Not only for the economics of it , but for the pure excitement of it .
My friends and clients got tired of the conversation about kettlebell all the time and frankly I did too.

So, I pushed to be what kettlebell has allowed me the pleasure to be. A strong not only physical but strong mentally as woman .
There were so many roads I could take but the small seed planted during my first cert came to mind.
The route of a Firefighter played out. It soon snowballed into becoming a EMT , Firefighter , Smokechaser , Rescue Tech. I currently hold 9 jobs and if I was given the opportunity to train or learn more, I would jump at it.

I am ok not being the best at anything, just give my best effort to it all.

A student asked today, " Where do you get that energy " ? I said its the kettlebell, a personal drive and no caffiene ! Being slightly ADD helps too.

Just because I am an older person , doesn't mean I stop growing . I would admit I am harder on myself and I strive to pass.

The PERFECT Christmas gift

Ask your family for a kettlebell under the tree, give the gift of good health !
I have 18,26,36, lbs for sale.
