Kettlebell Training, Part 1: Carries, Get-Ups, and Goblet Squats

I hop on the mic all by myself today to talk about key kettlebell exercises—why they’re essential, how to perform them properly, and what you can do to modify them for your fitness and mobility level. My training style evolved through my years of gym ownership and athlete observation to become a minimalistic, low-impact style that promotes balance and functional movement. Whether you’re an average Joe or a high-level athlete, these exercises will activate dormant muscles, bring your mind and body back into alignment, stabilize your core, and help you become truly STACKED.

  • Second exercise: Get-ups (45:00)

Never before in our history have we been exposed to so much electromagnetic radiation. Whether you’re a frequent traveler like me and worried about the radiation in the airplane or airport, or you’re sitting at a desk all day exposed to WiFi and sitting close to your phone… all of this stuff is adding up, and the research on the impact this is having on our health is piling up too! This is why my friends over at Lambs have created protective clothing (including the only underwear I wear) to block almost 100% of this harmful radiation.
