[Strength Session] Full Body with some HIIT Mix

Sometimes strength sessions can get a little bit boring… you shouldn’t be bored with this one as it has a little bit of everything. We start the session with some core activation as we warm up we then move into some higher intensity work and finish it off with some compound work using dumbbells and kettlebells.

Equipment Needed

Kettlebell and/or Dumbbell
Stability Ball
Step up or riser
Yoga mat is nice to have
If you don’t have the specific equipment you can modify with other items and even just do things with body weight.
I hope you have fun!!

Coach Kayla's Core Circuit

Your core is more than just the abdominal muscles (transverse abdominals and rectus abdominals) that create a “six pack” it also includes your obliques, your pelvic floor, even your glutes and muscles in your back. Here is a little core circuit for you to use to help strengthen your core!!

[Mindset] Changing Your Self Talk

As a coach, and athlete, I preach a lot about positive thinking and positive self talk to my athletes. Honestly, I preach it to myself OFTEN as I have to constantly remind myself to think positively to take the negative thoughts and turn them into positive thoughts on a regular basis. I truly and whole heartily believe in positive self talk, not only does it boost your confidence but it is a great way to develop a mindset that challenges the obstacles you are facing as well as giving you the courage and confidence to stand back up when you fail. The mind is a very powerful feature and is so very often under utilized in our daily lives from a powerful standpoint.
