Catching Up

Sorry for the delay in posts recently but riding a train on my way back from NYC leaves me with some extra time. I have some videos but I can't load them using my connect card. I'll throw them on here when I get connected to a LAN line.

By the way, class this week will be: Tuesday at 6:30 and Saturday at 9:00

Enjoy!

Wednesday - November 4


What a great class to get November started!

Welcome to Betsy who attended her first FFT class. Great job Betsy!!!

Skill 1: Introduction to the Overhead Squat, this would come in handy later on...

Skill 2: Introduction to Turkish Get-Ups, I love that skill. One of my favorites. Seriously, if you have shoulder problems, spend some time working on your TGU and you will get strong quickly. It was my choice for rehab when I dislocated my shoulder this spring, now I can do handstand push-ups again!

Workout:
3 rounds for time of:
Weighted Overhead Lunges
Dumbbell Swings, 15 reps
Push-Ups, 10 reps



I wasn't sure how effective this workout would be but I think it did it's job.


Afterwards we all cheered on Kerri as she tried out her new bands. Not too long of a video but you can see Kerri has been working on her kipping swing.



Great job again everyone. See you on Saturday!

Thanks,
Mark
