Perhaps one of the most interesting things I ever came across was the role of resting (yes, not working out) in order to gain superior strength. As a former basketball player, I always thought that the 5 day training for our meets and traveling games was the norm. When I entered into the world of […]
Holy Hip Flexors! Hip Mobility for The Avid Lifter and Why It’s So Important
Last weekend I had the honor and privilege with getting some one-on-one time with master level RKC instructor, Keira Newton. I was always fascinated by Keira as she is a true mobility wizard. I have never in my life seen someone move as well as this woman, and if you would like to have an […]
“But Don’t I Have to Lift Weights to Get Strong?”- Guest Post by Ryan Williams, PCC Instructor at Primal Fitness Pittsburgh
“I’ve been asked this question dozens of times after suggesting to people that all they really need to be strong and fit is their own body and a little guidance. Yes, you can get very strong by lifting heavy things, be they barbells, dumb bells, kettlebells or rocks, but you don’t have to lift any […]

The Road to Level II
RKC II is closer than I thought, and with all that in mind it is time to start dialing in training, eating, and all that jazz (not like I haven’t before, but now is the time for the extra push!) . It hasn’t been the easiest of things to do on my end in terms […]
Nutritional Tricks of the Trade: How to Eat Big and Look Awesome!
Recently I dived head first into some interesting nutritional bits (or should I say bites? LOL 😉 ) that have been particularly advantageous to my wild work and training schedule. Make no mistake, I am a big fan of the book Metflex by Eat to Perform and regularly refer to that manual as my “nutritional […]
Listen, Learn and Move: A Rant and a Rave about Primal Move
I recently had a meeting with one of my newest clients to discuss her training program. She isn’t the usual client. She’s not in this for weight loss, she doesn’t need help tracking her macro-nutrients, or any of what I would consider the “usual concerns” of the people I work with at Primal Fitness Pittsburgh. […]
Why Calisthenics? Um . .Why Not?
I know what you are thinking. Why is the kettlebell chic talking about body weight training? Don’t get me wrong, I have a serious affinity for kettlebell training and you should all know that by now, especially if you read one of my previous posts. That being said, the current plan I am on for […]
Beyond Swings and Squats: The Functional Use of the Russian Kettlebell
Say anything about the iron looking cannon with a handle on it, and you have got my attention. In fact, I have been known to quickly swoop right in on a conversation like a hawk picking up its prey at the mere utterance of the word “kettlebell”. True, I am quite in love with this […]
