Also, if you want more crazy hip-mobility focused drills, don't miss John Wolf's stuff (www.KettlebellGroundwork.com). Good luck! - mark Thu, 13 Sep 2012 04:05:45 +0100 http://www.mymadmethods.com/workout-plans/fitness-is-function-workout-plan/1270-day-kettlebell-sandbag-bodyweight-workout#comment-603 Awesome! What's the purpose of the knee drop w/ the squat? - lasaun Thu, 13 Sep 2012 03:56:51 +0100
