In this Fit Life, we continue to learn about Kettlebells. In the last Fit Life, we had an intro and instruction on how to do the Kettlebell Swing . Today Matt and David instruct us step by step on how to do the Turkish Get Up. Find more info and other episodes at WithAmyMac.com You should always start the Get Up without a weight first and then once your form is perfect, add a Bell. When you are comfortable with the Get Up, add it to the swing and you have a full body workout! Combo Kettlebell Workout: Swings - Swing for 30 seconds and then take 30 seconds off. Repeat the 30 seconds on/30 seconds off for 3-5 minutes and work your way up to doing this for 7-10 minutes. Turkish Get Up - perform a TGU on the right and left sides - this usually takes a little over 1 minute to complete on both sides. Practice until you can do continuous Get Ups, alternating on both sides for several minutes at a time. Eventually you should be able to work your way up to 7-10 minutes of continuous Turkish Get Ups. This is about 14-20 minutes of workout -- you will feel it the next day!

TRANSCRIPT Picture Transcript Echo Chamber Project Title Sequence [Photo Credit: chamomile remixed by Jen Gouvea & Kent Bye] Kent Bye ( MetaThought Productions ): My name is Kent Bye, and I'm a documentary filmmaker Kent Bye: Can you hear me? Jen Gouvea: [Offscreen] Yep. Kent Bye: I've got this film, and a lot it's criticizing -- about the media, but I didn't just want to -- just like have this big rant about "The media is really screwed up" -- Everyone knows the media is screwed up. I'm trying to do something about. I'm trying to like find some viable alternatives. Jay Rosen (New York University / PressThink ): The world is not going to be the same for the major media in five or ten years -- That much I'm convinced of. [ Full Interview ] Kent Bye: This isn't too bright or anything? You see, that's what I'm thinking. It might not -- like -- Dan Gillmor ( Grassroots Media, Inc. ): The traditional mass media are a lecture. And we're evolving media into something in between a conversation and a seminar with some lecture as well. Doc Searls ( Doc Searls Weblog ): You know, the conversational mode of relating to each other is as old as humanity, but it's actually new to what we call "Media." Kent Bye: This project takes a look at how the ABC, CBS and NBC newscasts became an "Echo Chamber" to the countdown towards war in Iraq. And how I produce the film will provide some collaborative alternatives that can make media more inclusive of different perspectives and points of view. Jonathan Landay ( Knight Ridder National Security Correspondent ) And it was a failure of most major media to delve behind -- in a meaningful way -- the administration’s rationale for going to war -- the intelligence that it was using to make it’s case. [ Full Interview ] Pamela Hess ( United Press International Pentagon Correspondent ): I don’t think I ever doubted that there was going to be a war. There was a lot of talk about how "No decision has been made." But -- I don't -- Maybe we’re just too cynical, but all of the entire press corps at the Pentagon was just kind of looking at our watches and wondering when it was going to be. There was never any doubt, I think, in any of our minds that it was an "if." Tom Brokaw ( NBC Nightly News ): Target: Iraq Peter Jennings ( ABC World News Tonight ): The Road to Possible War Dan Rather ( CBS Evening News ): Showdown with Saddam Bill Plante ( CBS News White House Correspondent ): But if you take it as a given, as I've already suggested to you that we did, that the administration was hell-bent on going to war, then you could only point out the steps that were being taken down that path. [ Full Interview ] Kent Bye: [Screaming] Halley Suitt ( Halley's Comment Blog ): People want to know how things feel. I don't know why it's driving it in that direction, but I know that it is going that direction. Dr. Marilyn Schlitz ( "Consciousness & Healing" ): You cannot separate out what happens inside of us -- our belief systems, our worldviews -- from the nature of the world in which we're embedded. And this is true for journalism. It's true for medicine. It's true for science. It's true for every domain of human inquiry -- where we know that as thinking, feeling human beings we're much more complicated than just the biological, mechanistic aspects of our being. Kent Bye: I'm trying to do collaborative media that's scalable and profitable for big organizations to do it. Kent Bye: Why not just get all of the information out there? I can open source all of the text of the interviews. I could release the audio at some point with podcasts. And eventually, when the film is done, I could release the video so that people could remix it in whatever way they wanted to. They could add more conservative voices, or more progressive voices, or whatever voices they want to. Collaboration Dan Gillmor: In think in general. on any beat at any publication or broadcast, the readers by definition know more than any individual reporter Kent Bye: So collectively, my audience knows more than I do. And there are technologies that can tap into the wisdom of this crowd. Websites like del.icio.us or Technorati use something called "Folksonomy Tags" to add context and meaning to webpages. Kent Bye: Folksonomies could also be used to add context and meaning to film sound bites in order to facilitate collaborative editing. Doc Searls: Right now we're in a model where lots and lots of people are capable of inventing exactly what they want to do what they want, and then sharing it. Kent Bye: My website is running the open source community software called "Drupal." This allows the creation of specific tools to facilitate collaborative media. These tools can then be shared with any other website that's running Drupal or CivicSpace. Halley Suitt: I think a blogger's mantra could be, "Whatever else you do, bring intelligence to the network and share it. Make the network more intelligent." Kent Bye: So we went out and interviewed the following journalists, media critics and other scholars about the performance of the mainstream media leading up to the war in Iraq. These are the interviews that volunteers have been helping me transcribe so that I could post them on my website.
