As athletes, our focus often lies primarily in improving our physical strength. However, solely building up our athletic capabilities is useless if we aren’t also training the mental support system that allows us to reach our physical peak.
The Kettlebell swing is an incredibly effective workout. With a single tool, you can improve upper body power, glute strength, core strength and grip. This month, join Thosh Collins as he gears you up with the tools and workouts you need to complete 10,000 kettlebell swings over the next 20 days.
While the intensity of this physical challenge is unrivaled, Chris’ decision to pursue it is not based on some random whim, but instead is founded in his desire to honor the spirit of the man Murph is named for: Lieutenant Michael P. Murphy.
The way we see it, you have two options during these unprecedented times - to be driven by fear and uncertainty or adapt and overcome.
We'll arm you with the tools that’ll help you move weight – including your own bodyweight – more quickly, efficiently and effectively. By the end of the month, you’ll be a more versatile and explosive athlete, tackling all your workouts with new speed and power.

When completing a pull-up, your body works like a fine-tuned orchestra with the right muscles activating at the right time.
The deadlift is the king of the lift. It's such a fantastic movement because of how many muscles it trains at once.
