#21 Strength In Motion with Kelly Manzone

In this week's podcast episode we are joined by personal trainer and educator Kelly Manzone! Kelly is the creator of "Pillars of Female Strength" and "Sturdy Athletes Program for Tennis Athletes". We talk about stigmas surrounding women and strength training, vintage strength tools, benefits of rotational training, and more! Kelly has over 17 years in the fitness industry specializing in unconventional training in modalities such as kettlebells, Indian clubs, mace training, and mobility workshops and clinics. She is fascinated by Physical Culture, an era identified with its historical tools of strength and skill-based modalities. She believes that training methods of the past can enrich modern-day life. By focusing on capability, sustainability, skill, and movement quality in her own practice, the inevitable outcome becomes strength, resilience, and longevity.    In this episode we discuss: Kelly's background... @0:11 Stigmas surrounding women & strength training… @7:40 “It’s Okay To Be Strong” - Transitioning new female clients into a strength based ideology… @10:45 Kelly's thoughts on Stick Mobility — Theory, female clients, athletes… @13:33 KellsBells private stock - Old time strength tools (Indian Clubs, Steel Maces, Kettlebells and more)… @22:51 Adapting to the new virtual health and wellness environment… @36:19 Benefits of circular/rotational training… @52:22 Sang (Battle Shield) strength training… @58:10   More from Kelly at:  https://www.instagram.com/kellsbells88/ https://www.kellymanzone.com
