Leave no stone un-turned

During training, make sure you never neglect those little muscles. Here's the final set of Wrist Curls from Tuesday.

A great variation for the calves.

Here's an awesome variation for the calves that can be done with a couple of kettlebells a couple of dumbbells, a barbell, some weight plates or a sandbag. A nice Seated Calf Raise variation. I've been throwing these in on Tuesday night's training after hitting the bear. I'll usually hit 3 sets of 40, 40 and 20 reps in a super set with 3 sets of  Reverse Wrist Curls. Then I'll hit 3 sets of 1-leg Calf Raises in a super set with 3 sets o Wrist Curls. Fun stuff.
