Untraditional Barbell Workouts

You all know that I’m a huge fan of kettlebell training.  While this is entirely true, I also like training with other implements or tools, I try not to limit myself to one thing unless I have no equipment available…then it’s all about bodyweight exercises.

Below is a short video that briefly shows three different barbell exercises, in a more untraditional way than most people are used to. I’m using the landmine with the barbell.  If you don’t have access to a landmine it is very easy to use just the barbell in the corner, which I’ll show you tomorrow.

Try completing 10-12 reps of each exercise on both sides for several rounds based on your fitness ability.

What’s Changing?

I was in Louisville all last week. I made a few posts to the site here, but something happened to them along the way, maybe they got lost in West Virginia. Anyway, just wanted to give you a heads up on some changes that are coming.

While I was in Louisville I got to hang out with my good friend Zach Even-Esh, now Zach really is a good friend, he’s not one of those guys I call a good friend just to stand out, he really truly is. Zach and I got to talking about business and before I know it I’m standing in front of my flip on top of a parking garage throwing around kettlebells. Pretty standard for Zach.

We filmed a bunch of videos, I’ll start posting them here every few days. You’re gonna love what we put together.

In Louisville, I also spent a lot of time with Holly Rigsby, we filmed my second DVD and did a few posts for her FYMs and also for Workout Muse. Good stuff!

My main purpose for being in Louisville though was business. I had a two day mastermind meeting, then a two day seminar on bootcamps, and we ended with a one day Kettlebell Athletics certification.

Crazy busy!

As a result of all that, I’m making some changes to the blog, soon it’ll have a whole new look, I’m sure you’ll love it.

Lots of training about to come your way.

I hope you leave some comments, and tell me what you want to see. Let me know what I can help you with.
