Keep it Going in Kettlebells!

HI Everyone..

Just wanted to say a BIG HELLO to all my past clients out there and that I hope you are all still working the Russian Kettlebells!..

'Tip"

For better hip release in squatting..

take a narrow stance with turn out, squat down onto the balls of your feet holding a kettlebell behind you. Think about pulling length out of your hips thru the femurs and out the knees. Lift length from your belly upwards as well. Exhale at the bottom.... practice these to improve your squats!......

Age is NOT a barrier to fitness!

As reality shows like the Biggest Loser and Dancing with the Stars are showing America, age is not a barrier in optaining fitness goals. We do NOT have to sit around and wait for the rocking chair to be our daily activity. To give an example, there were more 50 year olds in the Birkie than any other age catagory. Some of the 70 plus year olds had skied more than 20 years in a row! And for many middle agers like myself, it was a first for us, and it inspired us to do more.

There are bicycle events that you can chose your mileage destinations, short run/walk races, and mini triathilons which whole families can partake in....... if you are looking for motivation and variety in your fitness goals. Don't stick to one repetitous type workout or activity. It will stagnate results and limit your body's optimal mechanics.

Don't neglect the weight bearing workouts. We can teach you fun, yet functional ways to work out with Russian Kettlebell / Bandit Loop / Bodyweight Conditioning here at LifeStyle Conditioning.

My First Kortelopet Race!!

Yesterday I skied my first Kortelopet (1/2 Birkie). It was a beautiful day to ski and I achieved my desired goals as a first time participant. Kudos to all the volunteers who not only did a great job of taking care of all our needs, but did it with genuine smiles. Northern Wisconsin was the perfect environment for those who love the snow and what is has to offer Nordic ski enthusiasts. Today I rest my sore muscles and remember the days events; it won't be long for the call of the American Birkebeiner to bid me a return in the future....possibly with a view to execute the Birke itself. I have been inspired by the many ages of the Kortie participants who return again and again ; some who have conquered the trail for decades, some in their 80s. Fitness is a part of their lives, as it should be for us all......and it shows in their abilities to return year after year, decade after decade, to ski with some who may be the age of their own great grandchild.

KEEP MOVING AND SETTING GOALS for your life. Stay healthy and young at heart.
