Brilliant at the Basics – Episode III – Bulgarian Split Squats AND McKenna’s First Experience at Wrigley (Wrigley vs Fenway)……

Today’s post is the 3rd and final installment of “brilliant at the basics.”  But before we get into that, I want to quickly recap my trip to Wrigley Field this past Friday.  If you read episode II of brilliant at the basics, you’ll recall I mentioned that one of my best friend’s was in town from Omaha for his first visit to Wrigley.  Now, he’s a BIG Red Sox fan, so I was curious to get his thoughts on Wrigley compared to Fenway Park (a place that I still haven’t been).  McKenna had A LOT of good to say about Wrigley in the days to follow his first experience in the ball park.  But I’m going to let him recap Wrigley and Fenway’s similarities and differences in the comments section below.  Note to McKenna, sorry about the mustard “situation” (you’ll get it when you read McKenna’s summary).

If you’ve been to both stadiums, please add your .02 in the comments section below as well.  I can’t wait to join McKenna at Fenway the next time the Cubs play there, so I too can compare the two ball parks.  I just hope that my first visit there will be Cubs vs Red Sox in the World Series (I know, I know, I won’t be holding my breath!).  By the way, at the end of the game, we were waving the W flag!  Cubs win!  Cubs win!

Brilliant at the Basics

Alrighty then, with that out of the way, let’s get to the last installment of brilliant at the basics.  I used the bulgarian split as the exercise of choice to get my point across.  But you can apply the points that I make to any exercise in the weight room.  Check out the video below…

So, if you have any thoughts about my whole brilliant at the basics series, leave a comment..  And, remember to check out McKenna’s summary of Wrigley vs. Fenway in the comments section below.  Is he on the money?  Do you have different thoughts?  If so, let us hear them…
