How Will We Ever Move On …

Narcissus is the glory of his race:  For who does nothing with a better grace-

Over this past weekend we sat down and had a nice free flowing chat amongst some old friends.  One topic that came up that we would like to share with you is:  You teach what you need to learn.  Let this thought sit in for a bit as you get ready to rush off to your mid day extreme fitness class …

Oh and to the peeps lamenting, crying about Olympic withdraw?  The REAL Olympics start soon!

The Plan-

There are countless boring and over opinionated blog-o-posts offering dreadful London Olympic recaps and what not today.  Here’s ours:

Top Tip:  If you missed any of the BBC coverage of the Summer Games because you were taking photos of yourself and Pinning things?  BBC FULL COVERAGE(Replay)

You only have until January peeps so hop to it already!?!

The Workout-

From our “No Time to Waste” series of programs:

As a Warm Up: 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 Light Turkish Get Ups (Graceful, Flowing, Find Perfection) Followed By:

Pick something heavy up around you and proceed to Heart Beat Walk for 100 pumps … Lets do this 4-5 times?!?

Notes:

The world will still go on dear reader.  Time to quit living vicariously as though you are an Olympic athlete or something?!?  Have fun today and ENJOY!!!


You Brought A Gun To A Knife Fight …

You can get further with a kind word and a gun than you can with just a kind word-

Rumor on the street is that the kids of today love this stuff:

The Plan-

Well um … We’ll just leave this here (Way to take home the Bronze Boys!!!):

While we are causing women to faint worldwide this morning.  Say hello to Chilean gymnast Tomas Gonzalez:

The Workout-

Inspired recently from the Slap Upside the Old Noggin series of programs here at CultFit HQ:

Be Advised:  You can do this program inside, it can be done.  However … Lego’s, Matchbox Cars, Bottle Caps (Beer) hurt under your hands performing Handstand walks!  Grass is our friend here peeps!  Soft, plush green grass.  FYI- Its located outside!!!

Not For time

Nice quick flowing Warm Up followed by:

Handstand Walk for 10 meters (Sprint back to the start – where you left a heavy KB …)

10 Heavy Hard Style KB Swings

Skill work or whatever its called is complete rubbish.  Life is a skill that we are all too happy to avoid during the day.  Like all of our programs, having fun and enjoying ourselves is paramount!  If you can’t perform a Handstand?  Or even walk a straight line on two feet?  Who the hell cares?  We don’t – That’s who!  Forward Rolls, Crab Walk, Cart Wheels, You Name It … All work here today peeps.  Skill Work … Open the car door for your lady friend sometime?!?  That’s a pretty damn useful Skill to work on don’t you agree???

Notes:

If only life were this easy?!?  Have fun today and ENJOY!!!

That Was Me – I Did This …

Randy, you know, when I want advice on cheeseburgers or not wearing a shirt, you’re the person I’ll come to-

Now that you have  prepared for any challenge in your way.  You can’t wait to go out and prove yourself to the world!

Today you are making history!!! Today is a day for the ages.  What you achieve today is a story you’ll tell your kids and grand kiddo’s over and over (nauseously) just so see their eyes widen when you say, “That was me!  I did this!

Take a moment to think of all the great first moments in sports history: The very first Olympics.  Tom Brady’s first touchdown pass, Your first pair of $125.00 Lululemon yoga pants and Tim Tebow running shirtless in the rain.  What you achieve today will be right there, the pinnacle of all of these great moments.

Completely off topic.  Here is our solution to the empty seat(s) mess at the London Summer Olympics:

The Plan-

Just wait for it … Chad Le Clo’s Father, Burt Le Clo?!?  Let’s just say he’s welcome over anytime!!!
