<description><![CDATA[Yesterday somebody asked could they have a look at our kettlebell/mixed strength class ' of course you can'. Is this like the Kettlebells I see on TV? &amp;nbsp;' definitely not' says I :) You see I have come to the point where I keep saying that any publicity is good publicity, right? But there is this little guy on my shoulder saying ' shut up you fool and stop being so sensible' Ok the problem with most training that is marketed so brilliantly in TV, magazines etc., is that it is crap, there I said it!]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I know a lot of my friends on facebook are converted already but this post is for the women who don't do strength training. I know there are still a lot of myths in our fitness industry still about women and strength training. The fear of bulking up is one myth that has to go!!!]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Well 2012 is here and we are all making the new year resolutions. I can imagine that most have to do with health fitness and prosperity. I have made a few resolutions, but my main one is to push what we call our fitness revolution forwards even more in 2012. We have spent the last year training 100's of women (mostly). We have changed the way that they train forever. In other words they train less and gain more! Yes it's a fun &amp;amp; smarter way to train, rather than spending long hours in the gym on boring treadmills etc.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The bodies chains wrapped in a leotard!
I know it sounds kinky :) but this is how i view our bodies. The body from foot/ankle to the head operates as one unit in functional movement patterns. Even with so-called isolation movements, muscles must work at least in pairs, so isolation training is not a good term in my view. Each muscle in our body, links to another through the myofascial network. The myofascia is a connective tissue that envelopes each muscle and weaves through each muscle. So this is our leotard. From the plantar fascia (sole of foot) to the galea aponeurotica (scalp) all our skeletal muscles are linked like chains, hence my kinky heading :)]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Movement teachers and the general public
Here i am addressing the foot and ankle in movement patterns. I tell our students that the foot and ankle are critical for proper and effective movement. If you are moving about with these areas out of neutral or optimal position then you are most porbably setting yourself up for bio-dysfunction sooner or later!]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[A current statistic is that 80-85% of the population will suffer with back pain at some point in life. This statistic is sure to rise with the kind of lifestyle that most people are leading. Ireland has one of the highest obesity rates in Europe at the moment. This trend tells me that we are taking less exercise and eating more crap. It's no wonder that we are suffering with back pain.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[At Function &amp;amp; Fitness Ireland F.F.I. we like to train in the upright environment as much as possible, in other words standing on two feet. The title of this article mentions Golf and Hurling but it can be about so many sports that rely on some rotational strength. In these specific sports it's a must that you are strong in twisting and turning, if you want to play these games successfully and without a higher risk of injury. In these sports you need to practise strength and movement in the upright environment too.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The Indian club is a primitive tool that has been around for a very long time. This method is or must be one of the oldest methods of strength and conditioning. The Indian club is best described as a bowling pin (1lb small ones) or a heavy bat (heavy ones over 12kg). They can be made from wood or metal. I first became aware of these tools as a young boy in the 1970's when my grandfather Michael O' Neill taught them in schools around Ireland. He was an old army P.E. teacher and taught mainly in Dublin. He wouls store the Indian clubs under our stairs, in as we called the coal house.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[One of my new kettlebell group members made a comment to me last night  about how the majority in kettlebell class are women. All of my groups  are the same, mainly women. You would think that a class involving  lifting, pushing, pulling and squatting cast iron cannonballs with  handles would be more attractive to men?]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Recently i have taken to some conditioning workouts, namely the vo2 max  snatch workout devised by Kenneth (Dane of Pain) Jay RKC Senior. What  are the benefits of this workout compared to a long walk or cycle for  example? All will burn calories, yes no doubt. Walking will use your  body weight in a way that you are well use to using it.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Christmas is approaching and the obvious is going to happen for most of  us. I am talking about diet and exercise. Yes we will all over eat and  probably the foods that are not too good for us, not to mention the  extra bottle of Vino or two! Such is life :) So where does the exercise  fit in? If anything it should be stepped up during the coming weeks. The  calories that you are about to consume over the next few weeks will  HAVE to be burned.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Recently i attended a strength and conditioning conference in the UK.  The weekend was dealing with the speed,agility and plyometric end of  things. So the weekend would entail a lot of running, change of  direction and jumping. Now i am literally a fish out of water so was  prepared for a heavy weekend on my body. I can't remember the last time  that i went running as most of my cardio work would be in the pool or on  a bike. I do a fair bit of walking though, but it's just not speed,  agility and plyometric!]]></description>
