Family Fun

There is nothing like getting the entire family on the exercise kick. I think that it is great that even the little boy wants to get into the fun. I think that one of the reasons that I really like training this way now is that it is pretty fun. There are so many things that you can do to add variety in your training. Heck, with ths style of training almost every rep is different.

There is such a great carryover from training like this versus standard "Gym" workouts. I really fell that I am able to deliver more power on demand than I was benching 400lbs. I also really feel better now than I did at 35 when I was pushing massive weights. Part of it is the fact that I am not pushing a weight in a strict plane. There is involvement of my entire muscle system. For my purposes, there is a ten fold benefit of kettlebell swings over bench press and curls any day. I am not working in isolation, but as one unit.
