Read moreAlways good times when leading at the premier kettlebell workout. A finer group of pax cannot be found. So, with such an esteemed gathering guaranteed, YHC decided to dust off some personal “favorites” to share. Closer, Atrophy, and...
Read more16 PAX embraced a recycled workout this morning at Bells & Whistles. Embraced is a loose term…hated, revolted, abolished are probably more proper terms, and that’s just what YHC thought of the workout. YHC touched base with Burns...
Read moreSo when the Q has an achilles injury, you should expect a healthy dose of arms!!! And that is what the pax at B&W got. Decided to kick it off with the unorthodox Michael Phelps, much to the chagrin of Bam. Followed that up with some other...
