Popular articles I’ve created over the years…

I write about fitness.  

Nearly all content is created from a home gym in Eau Claire, Wisconsin.

Building a strong and resilient body using:

  • Kettlebells
  • Barbells
  • Macebell
  • Resistance Bands
  • Dumbbells
  • Bodyweight Strength Training
  • Ground Based Movements (crawling, locomotion, etc)

Mobility work, flow training, crawling, ground based conditioning, cardio, gymnastics, flexibility, workout design and a sprinkling of diet advice. 

Everything contributes to getting results and it all works.

Consistency, discipline, effort, sustainability and habits are the REAL drivers of lifelong fitness.  

I try to make the info in each article practical so you can put it to use immediately. 

Most of my articles are complemented with plenty of videos, photos and links.  

Enjoy.

Kyle

  1. Would love to see some online programming/wods that I/we can follow? I am a beginner in movement and trying to do more, learn more and move more

    1. Absolutely. I’ve on it for sure. Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment. Look for much of this soon! Cheers.

  2. Hi, Kyle! I was hoping to share your tips on relieving foot stress with my work’s wellness newsletter. Could you email me so we could discuss details? We’re based out of Chippewa. 🙂

  3. Hey man, absolutely loved your breakdown of Ido Portal’s Isolation -> Integration -> Improvisation. I’ve been watching his stuff for a while now, but it wasn’t until I read your explanation of that framework that it “clicked” for me. Honestly, can’t thank you enough.

    You’ve mentioned a few times on the blog that you haven’t been able to find good resources on Ido’s stuff, so I wanted to point you at a fantastic resource put together by a guy on reddit, Antranik.

    http://antranik.org/the-floreio-project/

    No idea how long this took him, but he organized all of Ido’s Youtube channel into a comprehensive framework, starting with individual movements and going through basic and advanced integrations. You might already know about this, but if not I hope it’s helpful! Either way, thanks for the great blog content, your work is noticed and appreciated.

    1. Otto! Thank you for leaving a comment. Yes, I have seen Antranik’s breakdown, although it has been a while since I looked at it. Thanks again… stop by soon. I apologize for not updating the blog anytime recently, I have been hammering away on YouTube and other social media platforms. Cheers.

  4. Hi Kyle, several months ago I started following your YouTube channel and reading your blog.
    First of all I want to tell you that your goal is met with me. Your work is definitely inspiring for me. I am a movement enthusiast like you. With almost 59 years, I practiced all my life martial arts and in my youth some sports gymnastics.
    I spent many years looking for ways to train better, learning methods, functional training, I taught and competed a lot, but I always feel like a curious child trying to learn new things. I feel very identified with everything you say in your blog and I really admire your work and athleticism. I watch your videos and try to do what you show and I find that many of the things you do so easy are an extreme challenge or impossible for me (but I still don’t give up and keep trying !!)
    I wanted this time to introduce myself to make contact with you and tell you that your work is excellent. All my workouts have an M (eaux) tion part. I will write more later. I have a lot of questions to ask you. Greetings and thanks for your generosity giving such a good example of life to everyone.

  5. Hi Kyle,
    I don’t know what happened to my first comment, if I did something wrong, I hope this comes to you now.
    I join in the comments about the excellentness of your sites, both in the videos and in the blog. Your philosophy regarding movement and quality of life are part of my own principles. Your athleticism is incredible, I have been following you for several months and I included many of your exercises in my workouts. But many of them are very challenging or impossible for me yet. The good news is that I keep trying and gradually I get better and that makes me very happy in my almost 59 years.
    For now I would like if you can explain to me what progression you suggest me to advance on my cossak squat at the “meauxtion” level. I can’t understand how you can “sit on the floor and get up in that position” with such fluidity. I will appreciate your advice to get closer to that goal. Later I will consult you for other movements if you agree. Thanks for your generosity.

  6. Absolutely love your blog and content and would love to see more. Will poost again with more time on. Y hand but wanted to show support as i came across this at work and immediately fixed my posture LOL. Much love brother.

  7. Hey Kyle,

    I have been following your YouTube channel for the past few years and I really appreciate all the content you put out. It has motivated me and helped me improve my own training/movement practice, especially with restoring and enhancing my movement capacity. I have also integrated many of the training and movement concepts you endorse with my own clients and students.

    That being said, the reason I am reaching out is to see if you are interested in teaching a purely online home fitness class to college students. I manage a university student activity program, and with all the COVID stuff, we are looking to bolster our online course offerings. The class starts this January 2021, is 7-weeks in duration, would have up to 25 students enrolled, and includes an adjunct instructor stipend/compensation.

    From reading your blog I get that you are a busy guy, so I completely understand if you do not have time. However, if you are interested and would like more information please email me (kevinblume@boisestate.edu) and we can start the conversation. Thanks again for what you do!

    Sincerely,
    Kevin

  8. Hello Kyle,

    I have been reading your blogs for quite some time now and also follow you on IG and YouTube. You post some amazing content and your thoughts/assessments on programs are really helpful. I do have a question for you on Movement Training – Between Movement 20xx and Animal Flow 2.0, which one do you recommend for someone who is just starting this new training method? I consider myself as a beginner and have not done movement training a whole lot. Your advice will be greatly appreciated.

    Regards,
    Rana
