Hard Man, Cold Man—Rocker, Photographer, Martial Artist, Interview with Michael Polito, PCC

By Adrienne Harvey, SrPCC, RKC-II, CK-FMS

I started in the martial arts in the late 70s with Chinese martial arts, specifically the Fu-Jow Pai system (Tiger Claw System). I studied that for a couple of years then transitioned to a kenpo style of Okinawa karate style where I achieved my black belt. From there I started mingling with other styles including Japanese swordsmanship—which I still study in New York City.

The Whats, Whys and Hows of Successful Programming, Part I

By Dan John, Master RKC

The problem with programming is simple: the word "program" is sitting right there to start off the word "programming." And, programs are the problem. It’s not an unusual week when someone emails me asking for a "program." It’s not unlike a patient calling a doctor and asking for medicine.

How Hard Girl Anne Reuss Beats Down All Obstacles

By Adrienne Harvey, SrPCC, RKC-II, CK-FMS

Kettlebells and Functional Training For Kids, Interview with Bob Bell, Ridgewood Public Schools, K-12 Wellness Supervisor

By Adrienne Harvey, SrPCC, RKC-II, CK-FMS

We’re teaching the students things that they can keep doing outside of a gym membership, even though we still have our weight racks and stuff like that. But, I’m into functional training along with many of the coaches and teachers, so we wanted to give people options other than just the standard bench press and squat. There’s obviously a place for that in strength training. But as training has evolved, we wanted to bring in functional training, kettlebells, and other things we can do.

Achieving Sustainable Health and Strength, the Blair Rockoff Way

By Adrienne Harvey, SrPCC, RKC-II, CK-FMS

Mindset is so important, and I want to get more people to focus on their lives instead of tuning it out. I think that if some of my clients were not also doing the health coaching with me, I would miss so much of what was getting in their way. I teach them how to be successful traveling, or what ever they need to work on—even if it’s just getting in more walking.

From Moulin Rouge to Sydney PCC, Noemi N Nagy, Interview

by Adrienne Harvey SrPCC, RKC-II, CK-FMS

I always liked learning different styles, finding my own style—and I always get really bored doing just one thing. So, when I moved to Paris, I also had to find work, so I auditioned at Moulin Rouge, Crazy Horse, and Lido. I signed a contract with Moulin Rouge and danced there for one and a half years. It was an amazing experience and an honor to be a dancer there, but...

Fatimat Yusuf-Olukoju, Olympian, RKC, Holistic Health Coach, interview

By Adrienne Harvey, SrPCC, RKC-II, CK-FMS

I went to the RKC in June. I was a big fan of kettlebells even before I heard about the RKC! I trained with kettlebells for my last four years as a track athlete. But, I wish I could have used them during my whole running career because it made a huge difference in my running.

Kettlebell Freedom

By Max Shank, Master RKC

For the past ten years, I have had the extreme pleasure of helping people get stronger, faster, and more flexible. My mantra and phrase that defines who I am and what I do is, “Give people the freedom to pursue any athletic endeavor for the rest of their lives”.
