There’s really no order here, and they’re for all different ability levels. I tend not to follow any specific programming, just fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants, and it works for me because it keeps me interested and engaged.

I have never commented before on here but i wanted to first say THANK YOU for everything you do. I truly appreciate your perspective. It helps me feel grounded as i work towards improving my own self worth, a self worth not tied to an un acheivable body vanity but one based on my humanity and uniqueness.
Secondly I love you for putting these free workouts on here.

I’m a cf coach and am bored with it. I’ve gotten to were i only do the wod’s and no 1rpm, mainly because of back issues. i started doing running sprints again, weight lighting twice a week and cf wod’s the rest of the time. I want to focus on gains in the backside, including hammies. I love these workouts and is the variety I’ve been after. Any recommendations on the best order? I’m very confused with the best way to get gains and the most effective way.

10 reps of each exercise = one round. so, ten pushups, 10 rr’s, 10 squats. Then again. 10 times through.

Feeling like a goof because I’m stuck at #1. 10 Rounds meaning 10 of 1, 2 & 3? That’s it? Or does one round = go to exhaustion or for 30 secs or something? Thanks!

hi, I want to lose weight. how many calories did you give yourself whilst losing? I’m not keen on calorie counting but I don’t trust myself if I don’t. I don’t want to go silly low calories! thanks Sara

Thanks Mandy! All the feedback I’ve gotten has been about my hip thrust, so I guess I better work on it.

Amber, I really enjoy your posts….
I discovered your snatch video clip on you tube, but can’t seem to get the comment thingy right over ther…I wanted to point you in the direction of two very helpful things I’ve use recently to work on my own snatch technique…I’m about to attempt the SFG certification (and so not live near any qualified instructors…), so these two people have REALLY helped my understanding of the snatch, mentally and visually.
Andrew Read RKC:
http://breakingmuscle.com/kettlebells/how-to-do-the-perfect-kettlebell-snatch (Read it carefully once or twice or more times…!!)
and (visually) Neghar Fonooni: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=13y4bOwOvbg (..she also has a VERY helpful detailed article accompanying this clip on her site…I cannot articulate any advice better than they do….but also try including 1 swing, 1 high pull, 1 SNATCH drills, with a lighter bell, maybe …to emphasize your HIPs involvment in projecting force horizontally…
Hope it helps!!! keep up the hard work..!!
Thank you Thank you..!!
Mandy
