Ode to the Kettlebell

Give me an open park with dewy grass
On an abnormally brisk March evening

Give me a rising moon and
The glare of the streetlamps on the wet road

Give me a tall thick pine tree
With sturdy branches to hang my rings

Give me pull ups and dips
To test my strength

Give me Giryas and Poods
To Swing and Press long into the night

Some may call this the poor man's gym
But tonight I tell you,
As I catch my breath
I am the richest man alive!

The Best Exercise and Workout Music: Mixes and Playlists for your Fitness Routines

Over on Hub Pages (again) you'll find my most recent exercise, fitness and training rambling called (as the title puts it) "The Best Exercise and Workout Music: Mixes and Playlists for your Fitness Routines "

I know there will be some differences of opinion as to the selections but for me that's ok because hopefully this will spur a grand discussion as to what the best training music is and what genera of music goes best with what type of training.

Feel free to take a look at the Hub and chime in over there!
