Dude, I can’t believe the weather guys/gals finally got something right, with this unpredictable weather in Southeast Texas. When someone says the word “snow” in Texas, the most you’ll get out of us is a cynical laugh. However, after a 2 year hiatus, snow returned to the Lone Star State.

I can can see how some of my fellow warriors in colder climates may not have the motivation to get up and go train. However, don’t let a little something like snow, keep you from making big gains & reaching big goals.

Check out this video, as I give you a few ideas on training in the winter months, avoiding hibernation weight gain, and totally get amped up on the return of snow to H-town! Be sure to check out my lyrical/vocal homage to the snow, at the beginning of the video. It should clear up any confusion as to why I am the “Peoples Fit Coach,” and not the next winner of “American Idol.”

I know you guys/ladies are hardcore, and live in a “punk-free” zone. So tell us, in the comment section below, how you stay fit during the cold winter months.

The holidays are right around the corner. However, I’m not worried, and neither should you. We have kick-butt training like the following, so tell Aunt Annie Mae to put down the sweet potato pie & come “Get Some Of This!”

1a. Kettlebell Clean & Press
1b. Hill Sprint x 25-50 yards
1c. Burpees (at top of the hill)
1d. Jog Down The Hill

Perform the reps of the kettlebell C&P & burpees as follows:

10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

NOTE: Perform given amount of reps on left & right sides, during kettlebell C&P. (i.e 10 reps on the right & 10 reps on the left, then run your hill sprint).

This bad boy will get your heart rate just a “tad bit” excited, to say the least. If you’re feeling really froggy, then work your way down the ladder, and back up. (i.e. 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10).

So, other than utilizing these killer warrior workouts, how else are you prepared to reduce the “bulge” before the holidays? Share you thoughts below.

Here’s a really crazy circuit of kettlebells & bodyweight exercises, that will have you smoked.
It definitely had one of my New Warrior Kettlebells – Houston warriors sweating, as you will see in this video. Here is the workout:

Perform each exercise, back to back, without rest for 1 min. each.
Once you’ve completed 1 round of all four exercises, rest for 90 seconds, and repeat.
Complete 5 rounds, and let me know how it goes.

As always, play hard and have “FUN!”

1. 2 Hand kettlebell swings
2. Burpees (without the push up)
3. Alternating Push Ups (w/ 1 hand elevated on the kettlebell)
4. Kettlebell 1/2 sit up w/ 2 hand overhead raise
