PUSH-UPS 💪🏼🔥! _ One of my favorite push-up variations is on parallettes, kettlebells, or dumbbells if you don’t have parallettes or kettlebells available to you. If you use kettlebells make sure to use bigger bells so that you have a wider base that makes it more stable because you can risk tipping over the kettlebell. _ I love this variation because, _ 1️⃣It increases the range of motion of the push-up because you are farther away from the ground so you have farther to go up and down; & _ 2️⃣This increased range of motion, while stabilizing on the parallettes, kettlebells, or dumbbells, is more challenging for the shoulders & pecs. _ Give it a try & let me know how it goes👇🏼! _ My Summer Shred Version 2.0, which comes out NEXT Tuesday, July 2, includes the option for this variation of push-ups as well as: _ ✅MORE swing volume than my original Summer Shred; _ ✅Turkish Get-ups (no get-ups in v.1.0); _ ✅Double kettlebell jerks; _ ✅a day of snatches; _ ✅PLUS our Iron Body 20/20 signature conditioning. _ I can’t wait to release it to the public.

THE DAY I STOPPED RUNNING 🙅🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️💨 _ Picture LEFT 2011 right after I finished running the Utica Boilermaker 15k with my husband @ericgahanatc That was the most at one time that I ever ran & will ever run again. I hated training for that race & I hated running that race & after I that race I stopped running all together for 3yrs. _ At that time my training was majority traditional cardio – running, spin classes, stair stepper & strength training & training with kettlebells only 2-3x/wk. _ Picture RIGHT 2016 right before I weighed in at 112# for a powerlifting meet to compete in the 52kg (114#) weight class & went on to back squat 215#. _ At that time my training was ZERO traditional cardio & ALL strength training, powerlifting, kettlebell training & kettlebell conditioning ONLY (e.g. swings, snatches) 5-6 days/wk & ½ mi roundtrip walk ~5days/wk to & from our condo to our gym. _ After the Boilermaker I stopped running, because, _ 1️⃣I realized that I did not enjoy it & the Boilermaker was the nail in the coffin; & _ 2️⃣I also started training for the Iron Maiden Challenge & needed to focus on training for maximal strength & not burning the most calories in a day with excessive cardio. _ As a result of eliminating traditional & excessive cardio & solely focusing on strength training, I started to see the physique changes that I wanted to achieve by all of my cardio exploits. I started to build more muscle & shape & have more muscle definition. _ If your goal is physique change, if your goal is to get “toned”, if your goal is more muscle definition & shape then you MUST STRENGTH TRAIN & cut back on the cardio. _ My Summer Shred Version 2.0 comes out NEXT Tuesday July 2🚀! It includes a strength block plus kettlebell swing or snatch conditioning. I can’t wait to release it to the public. Get ready to get your Shred on💪🏼💦🔥! _ Do you kill it with cardio 💦or focus on strength training💪🏼?

I LIKE BIG BELLS & I CANNOT LIE 😈💪🏼🔥 _ Double kettlebell deadlifts on the training skillet today – 8,800lbs of double kettlebell deadlifts to be exact! _ Although weight is a limiting factor with the double kettlebell deadlift, I enjoy this variation of deadlift more than the barbell. _ 1️⃣It’s nicer to my body than the barbell; & _ 2️⃣I love setting up to lift two big bells off the floor. _ 💥SAVE THE DATE 📅 : My Summer Shred Version 2.0 comes out NEXT Tuesday July 2 💪🏼💦! It includes, _ ✅plenty of double kettlebell deadlifts (of course barbell is an option); _ ✅PLUS, if you can believe it, MORE swing volume than my original Summer Shred; & _ ✅this version also includes, get-ups (no get-ups in v.1.0); _ ✅double kettlebell jerks; _ ✅a day of snatches; _ ✅PLUS our Iron Body 20/20 signature conditioning! _ I can’t wait to release it to the public.

How I Completed The Iron Maiden Challenge As A Lightweight

On July 25, 2014, when I was in New York City assisting at a StrongFirst Level I Kettlebell Certification a few weekends ago, I completed the Iron Maiden Challenge. The Iron Maiden Challenge is a weighted pull-up, a press, and a pistol squat, all three lifts with a 24kg (53lbs) kettlebell. The equivalent for men is called the Beast Tamer Challenge and all three lifts are completed with a 48kg (106lbs) kettlebell…. Read More
