Funniest thing I've ever seen!

By bsekula, on August 17th, 2007

A friend of mine sent the link to this video. I really don’t know if it’s the funniest thing I’ve ever seen but when I first saw it, I laughed so hard my eyes watered.

Funny thing is, I could see the one living grandmother that I have as the golfer and the one that passed away last summer as the one with the camera – based on her comments.

Don’t forget to turn up the volume – it’s just not quite the same without it.

Football workout video

By bsekula, on August 13th, 2007

Here is a video demo of Chris performing a quick football workout on the Pro Trainer II from Vortex. Chris is demonstrating four exercises:

Alternating chest press/punch: note the lean of his body – this helps develop power and explosion in his arms, shoulders and chest.
Alternating high rows: Do these as fast as you can to develop the fast-twitch muscle fibers.
Alternating bicep curls: Same as above
Hip explosions with the bench: really jump into the bench and develop power and explosion in your hips – if you’re a linebacker, strong safety or CB this will help you become a more aggressive and powerful tackler.

Keep in mind that these are only four of a practically unlimited number of exercises you could do while training for football. Check out other videos we’ve recorded. There are a lot of other videos you can find too. Youtube, myspace and other sites where videos can be posted . . . → Read More: Football workout video

Golf Fitness Preview on the Vortex

By bsekula, on August 10th, 2007

Here it is…as promised yesterday – a video preview of a golf-fitness workout on the Vortex Equipment. Keep in mind this is only a 2-minute preview, your session at the fitness center will be an hour.

A quick description:

There are 4 different exercises. Each one was done for 1 set of 10 repetitions. The important thing(s) for you to notice are the limited amount of time it takes to switch from exercise to the next. How much work gets done with limited movement from one area to another, and how incorporating one piece of equipment (the BOSU) completely changes the exercise.

The four exercises demonstrated below are:

Squats on BOSU with overhead press
Trunk rotations with stability ball (right and left side)
Alternating high rows on BOSU
Swing exercise

With only these four exercises, we worked on:

muscular strength – obviously by pushing, pulling, lifting and twisting the weights
stability – notice, too how my feet are constantly moving . . . → Read More: Golf Fitness Preview on the Vortex
