(secret service snatch test) I figured a fellow KB man would agree with those points. When had issues I did pretty much nothing but the Enter the Kettlebell routine. Managed to retain pretty much all strength as a result which was splendid. so it makes me wonder if I continued to do that, but hit it properly would it increase it even more whilst keeping other elements like mobility and fitness in a better state. Have to admit I would like to do the SSS test with a 24 and get the 200 reps I must admit, would be in a decent place then. To manage it with a 32kg one is mad, but also downright awesome | ||

My fitness is worse after stopping doing them 3. My mobility is worse for not doing them. Might have to get myself a KB lol Another impressive session mate. | ||

They are quite good for fitness with a bit of a strength element too. I think I need to keep 1 KB session if possible or at the very least try adding KB swings/snatches or ball slams at the end of workouts | ||

To be honest I hadn't done much until back went iffy, so I had a go as I had a couple and it worked well. Swings are good for things like that, great warm up tool as well as good for conditioning etc. | ||

he who does the volume wins Member 2498, 3652 posts SQ 160, BP 125, DL 225510.0 kgs @ 109kgs UnEq | 06/07/2017 Deadlift 60kg x 10 100kg x 5 140kg x 5 straps 180kg x 5 went well 210kg x 5 210kg x 5 210kg x 5 These went really well. The 180 was better than expected, so I juged main weight off that, was planning on 3x5 with 200-210 depending on the 180 set, went well so 210 it was, don't think i've ever managed that weight for so many sets and reps. The last set had a good few secs between reps, but was gonna get the sods done Good thing was aswell that the reps were clean. ie. no hitching Decline Bench 40kg x 10 60kg x 10 70kg x 10 80kg x 10 90kg x 10 Awesome and still a little more there, winner Power Clean 40kg x 5 60kg x 5 75kg x 5 75kg x 5 75kg x 5 Tough, mainly as it was bloody warm! Calf Raises 60kg x 15 75kg x 15 85kg x 15 Standing Cable Crunch 25kg x 20 25kg x 20 25kg x 20 Well I must say that was an awfully acceptable session Really bloody happy with it. Deads went well and so did the benching, buzzing after it I must admit. As said above, that might be some form of weight/volume pb. Hope to get 225+ 3x5 by year end, gonna be tough, but something to aim for. | ||

Narrow Grip Pulldowns 40kg x 15 50kg x 15 60kg x 12 Concentration Curls 13.5kg x 10 15.5kg x 10 15.5kg x 10 Good session, squats better than expected, CGBP went well, felt strong. All good. Now to chill, have some tea and then go up to the static tonight for a weekend in the lakes Even better as the new owners of the site are having a BBQ, winner, hope it's not to sweeten us up and then they double the rates | ||
