“After years of trying to lose weight, I finally lost 10 lbs!”

Clarissa started at FVT in late 2018.

She had been trying to lose weight for years, and had tried lots of different things, but had never succeeded.

So, with the new FVT location in the Pocket / Greenhaven area, she thought she would give our program a try.

Great news! In Clarissaโ€™s words:

โ€œWow!! After years of trying to lose weight, I finally lost 10 lbs. I am overwhelmed with joy that I am down to size 8 and BMI of 24.8!!โ€

CONGRATS Clarissa, keep up the great work! Here is to your continued success!

new FLAG (fat loss accountability group) – lose 10 lbs in 6 weeks

We are thinking of getting our FLAG (fat loss accountability group) back together!

Would you be interested?

We’d help you put together a custom meal plan ..

Meet weekly to help you stay accountable …

And have a goal of helping each participant to lose at least 10 pounds over the 6 weeks.

I made a video explaining a bit more on the details:

If you are interested, just shoot me an email, send me a text, give us a call, or let us know in person.

We need about 6-10 people to get this going.

Hope to hear from ‘ya! ๐Ÿ™‚

Kettlebell Clean / Press Technique (rack position)

Getting into a solid rack position is something I personally struggled with for a bit when I first got into kettlebells.

For some reason, I just couldn’t seem to get it right.

Then, I learned the checkpoints I’m going to share with you in today …

… and it made all the difference!

KETTLEBELL RACK POSITION CHECKPOINTS

1 – Hand should be below the chin
2 – Forearm is vertical
3 – Arm is close to the body
4 – KB should be touching the upper arm and forearm

Basic stuff, but honestly, a LOT of people get it wrong.

And if your rack position isn’t right, your cleans and presses – and any other moves you do from there – won’t be right either.

So, practice this drill a minute before your next kettlebell workout, and see improvements right away!

10 Min Zero Equipment Bodyweight Ladder Challenge

We did a really fun challenge at the end of boot camp last night.

Everyone loved it and hated it at the same time ๐Ÿ™‚

It’s 100% bodyweight-based and requires ZERO equipment, so thought it would be cool to share.

Give it a try today:

#

10 Min Zero Equip Bodyweight Challenge

Set your timer for 10 minutes. Start with one rep of each exercise. Once you finish one rep of each exercise, do two reps of each exercise. Once you finish two reps of each exercise, do three reps of each exercise. Continue to “climb the ladder”, getting as high as you can in 10 minutes.

*BONUS – do it with a partner “I-go-you-go” – style for added challenge and fun!

– burpee
– prisoner squat
– push up
– total body extension (like a jump, but low impact – just come up on your toes instead of leaving the ground)
