Kettlebells, TRX 12-week FORCE Program: Day 53

So I mentioned that I am evaluating a TRX suspension system, by Fitness Anywhere, via a 12-week fitness program. Today was Day 53.

The grind continues.

My workout started with 4 Turkish Getups as warmup (after jump rope) with the 24 KG kettlebell. I followed this with 3×5 ladders of kettlebell cleans with the 32 KG kettlebell.

No running today, and thankfully the calf muscle soreness seems to be dissolving.

I started out with 7 sets of 5,5 snatches with the 24 KG kettlebell, on the minute. I am slowly trying to build up my endurance with the 24KG kettlebell, since that is the kettlebell used for . . . → Read More: Kettlebells, TRX 12-week FORCE Program: Day 47 + Squishy Shoes

More Running, Kettlebells, TRX 12-week FORCE Program: Day 46 + We Know How to Hobble

So I mentioned that I am evaluating a TRX suspension system, by Fitness Anywhere, via a 12-week fitness program. Today was Day 46.

Yesterday was a rest day, but my calves didn’t get the memo.

People at work are amused at me hobbling along as I try to walk with *really* sore calf muscles from starting my running program. I would chase after them for calling me old man if it weren’t for . . . → Read More: More Running, Kettlebells, TRX 12-week FORCE Program: Day 46 + We Know How to Hobble

Kettlebells, TRX 12-week FORCE Program: Day 44, and How to Run

So I mentioned that I am evaluating a TRX suspension system, by Fitness Anywhere, via a 12-week fitness program. Today was Day 44.

The day started with me really feeling the effects of yesterday’s run. My calves were really sore. Why were they sore? Well, I ran 2 miles and am not a runner. Also, I am using a natural running technique — running on the forefoot, rather than the heel-striking method promoted . . . → Read More: Kettlebells, TRX 12-week FORCE Program: Day 44, and How to Run
