Signing off.




If one does a workout and it isn't blogged, did it occur?


This will be my last post on this blog.My first blog post was on May 11, 2004.I was the first kettlebell athlete to blog and I probably was the first personal trainer as well. I have recorded every workout over the last 4 and a half years. This blog started out as an online version of my paper log book and it seemed like a good idea and it was. It evolved from just an online log of my training to a way to reach out and teach as well as discuss and analyze all kinds of things related to kettlebells, powerlifting, gymnastics and training in general.

But the time has come to move on. I will continue to swing, snatch and use kettlebells much as I have for the last 4.5 years but I no longer feel the need to record things online.Yoga has become a much bigger part of my training life and much of my future training and physical progressions will revolve around it.

Anyone interested in training consultations or information can contact me via my regular email.

It's been a wild ride these last four years and I don't expect the next four to be any less exciting. More in fact.And that's good.

Thanks to all who have read and commented and followed my journey via this blog.Your support has always been appreciated.

Good luck,great training and hope to see you at an RKC!
