    Exercise

     

    Total Body Kettlebell Workout Routine

     

    When I am pressed of time I follow this workout routine. It’s short (about 20 minutes), easy to follow, along with being an intense workout that involves cardio and works all the major muscle groups. - BDS

    Great video. Unfortunately

    Great video. Unfortunately after I tore the mensicus in my knee five years ago I can no longer do squats and lunges, especially not with weights. Not unless I want to be back on crutches again, lol. But definitely a good workout for anyone with sound knees.

    exersise??

    The Wife and I have always had dogs.  German shepherds golden retrievers and great pyrenees.  Every now and then a mutt of some kind.  Living in the woods the larger dog could cope with the neighbors their dogs and the wildlife all mostly on their own. 

    After a period of doglessness The Wife wandered off and came home from the pound with a dachshund mix.   A 22 pound won't back down  assertive little guy with almost no common sense.  I often refer to him as Jr.  Long story short he needs to be walked.  And I am the guy doing the walking mostly.   It is an easy chore most days.  However the appearance of a moose or snowplow can add  a certain element of cardio .    I am pleased to have a dog I can pick up and tuck in like a football before the cardio begins. 

    Over time I can walk him further. And at a faster pace than in the beginning.   I look forward to our walks.  Although I do have to admit.  He is walking me.
