Thayne put me on the rowing machine, and it kicked my butt. He said it's the most under utilized machine there is. I couldn't stand after that, so a little stretch was needed. We went over several basic kettlebell moves and we discovered that the Swing has taken a different approach. I felt that every day after training . I thought my leg muscles were developed, They will be now !
There were so many new toys in the House. I was curious as to how they were going to be utilized. Thayne showed me a few . I am all about going outside to train, and we did some of that, too.
My main goal was to master the bent arm hang and the pull up. We worked on this with a pull up strap. It made my confidence go up and I feel I will get stronger and be able to do this with ease in the coming months. (My mesomorph body has a lot of muscle weight and it's a little more difficult).
My desire to become a firefighter is going to take even more challenges to my body. We all know that FF's should be training with the bells, so I called my local fire chief for a few pieces of equipment. I now have several new ideas to bring to class. This is going to be fun to implement this in our groups.
In the Tampa area, it seems that everyone exercises, and there are many specialty gyms. This opens up many possibilities for me in the future where I might want to land.
Happy New Year !
