I’ve worked out at some of uncommon places. That’s the beauty of kettlebells. I’ve worked out in parking lots, in the kitchen, and with dinosaurs. But this was the first time I’ve ever worked out with Texas Longhorns. I have a feeling that it might be my last too. We spent three weeks traveling through Texas. […]

I’m skipping ahead a bit. Texas was the next workout I filmed after New Mexico. But I’m still in the holiday spirit and the last workout I filmed has a holiday feel to it. I mean there are bells. They don’t jingle but they are red. And best of all there is snow. Beautiful white […]

I haven’t mentioned it because I try not to complain to you guys but I have had a pulled hamstring and some serious lower back pain the last few months.  As a result, I had backed off and modified some of my training.  During my Thanksgiving vacation, I took it easy and stuck with light […]

Brent is shooting some children’s music videos today and tomorrow.  Like last year, I’ve been hired to do “crafts service”.  Like most normal people, I brought my kettlebells along and slipped away for a workout. While Brent was doing this… …I was  doing this. (Don’t tell him.) The Gym 12 kg Kettlebell 16 kg Kettlebell […]
