The Extreme Kettlebell Instructor Course At The Peacock Gym

on the 23rd & 24th June Optimal Life Fitness and it's 19 keen kettlebell enthusiasts made their way to the East end of London and to one the most famous boxing gyms in England, the Peacock Gym, Canning Town. It was a fantastic venue for the Extreme Kettlebell Instructor Course, the staff at the Peacock were immensely helpful and incredibly friendly. We were looked after throughout the whole weekend, treated to baked potatoes at lunch and bannans to keep us going during the day. It was a pleasure to run the course there and it was clear to see why the Peacock is such a famous and well known place.


Not only was the venue great, the performance by all attending was exceptional, we pushed them hard and they responded brilliantly. All of them coming out at the end of the course with a tired bodies but a smiles on their faces!


We now look forward to running more courses at the Peacock in the future and possibly a few strongman training competitions. Well done to all the trainers who attended the course, it was a great pleasure meeting you and working with you over the weekend.

Optimal Life Fitness Gets Everywhere!


I took some time off work to do some travelling around Croatia, Bosnia and Macedonia last week. Saw some really interesting places, but thought that this was such a beautiful spot, just incase you ever go to Croatia, try and get to Tresteno, a small village 30 minutes from Dubrovnik

Kettlebell Course In Greece

We've decided to make the trip to Greece to train with the American Kettlebell Club and their head coach Valery Federenko. The one day course in July will take us further into learning the art of Girevik Sport (Kettlebell Sport) after spending a great day with Steve Cotter back in April. I'm very excited about the whats in store and the learning that we are sure to get from the worlds best Girevik.
This is all in preparation for our trip to Miami in November where the planned kettlebell world championships will take place. BJ and I are determined to make it to Miami and compete alongside other kettlebell enthusiasts. We hope to make a good impression on the rest of the kettlebell world and help to put the UK on the map as being a serious nation of kettlebell users.

We will be updating this blog throughout our preparation phases so keep checking back to see how we're getting on. If you're interested to see the training we're doing to get us to ready, go to the forum and you can view our training logs.
