Kettlebell Workouts with Master Geoff Neupert

If you want, you can do what John did - remove the experimentation and guesswork and grab a copy of Kettlebell W.O.D.: 👉 https://salutis.kartra.com/page/Iyq450 Some guys/gals have more active day jobs than others: Law Enforcement First Responders (Firefighters, EMTs) Military Contractors, and other trades … To name but some. These folks can’t afford to be trashed after “leg day.” So most OSMs (Old School Methods) no longer work for them. (Truth be told, many of the OSMs - not all - work best for those who get a little pharmaceutical help…) But making the necessary mental shift away from the “Go Hard or Go Home” all or nothing mentality can be tough. For example, I got this message from John over on my YouTube channel the other day: Here are 3 “easy” strategies you can use if you find yourself in a similar situation. (Or if you just don’t like being chronically sore, running out of energy, or missing out on memories with your family/kiddos due to exhaustion.) [𝟏] 𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 “𝐒𝐨𝐦...

One of the problems those of us who are athletes at heart or competitive by nature is that we turn many of the things we do, especially our workouts, into competitions. We harness our “inner 18 year old” and work for PRs (Personal Records, or Personal Bests, if you prefer) every single workout. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐦 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐥𝐝: [1] We’re not as young chronologically as we were, so it’s harder to train “all out” and still recover from it, without waking up overly tired/borderline exhausted, stiff, sore, or eventually injured… [2] We’re older in “training age” so the “gainz” don’t come as fast as they did when we were younger [3] Because of 1 and 2, it’s really easy to get discouraged (and did I mention get injured too? Yes, that’s right, I did.) So the key is to let those PRs come to you, like the cat from across the street that comes up to my 9-year old daughter. How? Here are 5 STRATEGIES: [𝟏] 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐎𝐍𝐆 𝐆𝐀𝐌𝐄.

Here’s the plan Daniel used. 👉 https://salutis.kartra.com/page/Iyq450 Imagine with me for a minute what would happen if you chose not to brush your teeth for the next 3 months. How much plaque, tartar, and disgustingness would be on them - in your mouth? A ton, right? How bad would your breath stink? Probably like a garbage dump, right? This simple exercise is a negative lesson in the power of consistency. And at its heart, it’s borderline ridiculous. I mean, c’mon, who can’t spare two to three minutes, twice a day, to keep their teeth from rotting and falling out of their heads? No one in the free Western world, that’s for sure. And yet, many of us fail to see the correlation with our workouts. If we applied the same consistency, with minimal effort, what kind of results would we achieve in 3 months? 6 months? A year from now? After all, a year is going to pass anyway (unless you’re planning on being dead). We may as well make the most of it. Which is why I want to show you how Danie...

I f you want the full plan that Carl is using, along with a 3 or 4 day a week training program, you can find them both inside Kettlebell MAXIMORUM here. 👉 https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-maximorum-e/ And he’s not “morbidly obese” either. I’m sharing this with you because if you’re like so many others, you’ve probably “tried to lose weight” only to fail in the past. Maybe repeatedly. And let’s face it, repeated failures squash your hope… Your belief that the possibility even exists. And let’s also be honest here: T͟h͟e͟ r͟e͟a͟s͟o͟n͟ m͟o͟s͟t͟ p͟e͟o͟p͟l͟e͟ f͟a͟i͟l͟ i͟s͟ b͟e͟c͟a͟u͟s͟e͟ m͟o͟s͟t͟ “d͟i͟e͟t͟s” a͟r͟e͟ e͟i͟t͟h͟e͟r͟: [𝐚] 𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 [𝐛] 𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 Or - [𝐜] 𝐁𝐨𝐭𝐡 [𝐚] 𝐚𝐧𝐝 [𝐛] So what’d “Carl” do to drop from 245 pounds to 235 pounds last week? (NOTE: “Carl” is not his real name. I changed it for his privacy.) A few things of note. First, though, Carl is like most of us: He’s constantly navigating a “high stress ...

Following up on my last two videos about “Recomping” - Recomposition Training - That’s stripping off body fat and building muscle simultaneously, becoming stronger and “better conditioned” along the way. (Simultaneously = in the same training block.) … And “Fat Loss” Training - focusing on stripping off body fat because it INHIBITS strength gains and muscle mass gains… I alluded to the fact that you can dump body fat AND simultaneously get measurably stronger when you program your training correctly. There Are 3 Prongs of Attack We Use To Do This: (Think of this as a trident or a 3-legged stool.) [1] Training. For training, we lift heavy. And we lift explosively. Both recruit the energy hungry 2x and 2a fast twitch fibers. And we do so with incomplete rests. Not “nonsensical” chronic mouth-breathing, tongue lolling in the air rests. Done correctly, research by Kramer, et al, over the last nearly 20 years seems to indicate this produces an acute post-workout testosterone release. Recall...

In case you need some programming resources for “Recomping” or “Fat Loss,” here are three: 👉[1] Recomping - my new program you may have missed https://salutis.kartra.com/page/hdl473 👉[2] Fat Loss - using a single kettlebell https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-burn/ 👉[3] Rapid Fat Loss - using a pair of kettlebells https://salutis.kartra.com/page/D9h108 For most (not all), I recommend “Recomposition” training. That’s stripping off body fat and building muscle simultaneously. (Simultaneously = in the same training block.) In order to do so, along the way you’ll become stronger and “better conditioned.” If you had to pick one - Recomposition vs. Training to Lose Fat / Getting Leaner - like “gun to the head” pick one… Which would I choose? Well, I don’t believe in “either/or” situations like that, but if you’re up for some stone cold brutal honesty… If you’re “overweight” (or obese) and can focus, I’d go for a “fat loss” program. Here’s why: HORMONES. Low testosterone and growth ...

  I f you need a Recomp program that “covers all the bases,” here’s a new one I put out recently that you might’ve missed. 👉 https://cart.chasingstrength.com/kb-max-yt In “Magic Land,” we’d all be able to eat what we wanted, workout the way we wanted, and look like Ah-nold and perform like a mix of your favorite military special operator and an elite athlete. Alas… if only “Magic Land” existed… *Sigh*... As a result, many folks end up training like a cat high on nip and chasing a laser pointer. One day they want to do a One Arm One Leg Push Up - for reps. The next, press ½ their bodyweight in one arm - also for reps (while sipping a cup of steaming hot coffee)... The day after that, they want the conditioning levels to pass the SFG Snatch test - 100 reps with the 24kg in 5 minutes or less - twice in a row in 7 minutes. And on Friday, they want to pack on 20 pounds of muscle while simultaneously losing 20 pounds of fat, while studying to be a vegan chef. Of course, I’m kidding… Som...
