Hello guy's

The picture above was taken in greenwich park and shows me wearing the Corp's colors whilst performing some Mace Bell Hammer spins!! A great exercise for the trunk and Spine whilst supplying tremendous stimulus to the Shoulder joint and girdle...get involved!

Atomic Training workshop 30^th JULY

 These are a new addition to Go Commando’s Group sessions and they are being brought forward by popular demand from my existing Commando clients.  These are the first sessions to be taken at the weekend with each Atomic training session taking place over a Two and a half hour period in Greenwich Park starting at 08.30. The first session will take place on JULY the 30^th and will commence on the last Saturday of each month.

A typical session will encompass an advanced Kettle Bell workout (you will need to have some experience before attending on these days), Bulgarian Bag drill’s, Mace work, Athletic conditioning equipment, body weight flow and some powerful hill work to finish.....

The Training will be open to all but be warned! The Commando classes are normally tough.... These will be a punishing educational experience!!

There will be plenty of opportunities to ask questions throughout the workshop and they will be strongly welcomed

I am looking for those persons that want to be blasted physically, educationally and emotionally
