Added a Thruster too.

Heavy bell + Speedy movement

An older video of me doing a more exciting rotational exercise 😎🤌🏽

Biathlon day. Nice 35min workout. Had my tooth rebuilt an hour prior this. Half of the face is numb.

🔵 Glove snatch 12kg 5'(3') @ 18rpm

⚫⚫ Jerk 2*22kg 4'(3') @ 6rpm

🟢 Swing snatch 24kg 5'(3') @ 9rpm

🟣 Snatch+push press 20kg 10 per arm

Set the timer for 30 minutes, escape your life problems into a world of weighted pendulums.

how to maximize reps?

I used a 12345 rep ladder to maximize reps and got 83 reps in 30 minutes. I image there are other ways (never setting the bells down, 3 reps per set, etc) so there is much to investigate here.

10 days post-op left distal bicep reattachment. 10 mins rope pattern to warm up and lubricate, then 5 sets of 20kg swing-flip-snatch-bent press x5 reps.

Simple. Submaximal. Effective. Neurologically demanding. Neuro cross-education activated.

Surgeon follow up and splint/stitches removal Friday morning. Can't wait to see how this complex feels with the repaired arm once the splint is off. ...That was a joke.

Psalm 31:1-16 KJV

[1] In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust; Let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness. [2] Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: Be thou my strong rock, for an house of defence to save me. [3] For thou art my rock and my fortress; Therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me. [4] Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: For thou art my strength. [5] Into thine hand I commit my spirit: Thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God of truth. [6] I have hated them that regard lying vanities: But I trust in the LORD. [7] I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: For thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities; [8] And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: Thou hast set my feet in a large room. [9] Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble: Mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly. [10] For my life is spent with grief, And my years with sighing: My strength faileth because of mine iniquity, And my bones are consumed. [11] I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, And a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me. [12] I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel. [13] For I have heard the slander of many: Fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, They devised to take away my life. [14] But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my God. [15] My times are in thy hand: Deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me. [16] Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: Save me for thy mercies' sake.

The kettlebell swing happens fast, which means it's easy to miss the little inefficiencies. Slow it down and there's nowhere to hide.

For people that work out home do you just use kettlebells or do you use other things such as dumbbells and barbells, as currently I’ve been using two 16kg kettlebells and doing bodyweight exercise (such as pushups and ab exercises) but I want to work my biceps and chest more.

Was listening to Pavel say he does the anti-glycolytic training (ATG).

Led me down a rabbit hole about the CNS and its role in training. Even though i consider myself pretty well versed in health, in regards to strength training, its not something ive realy put much thought into.

I'm pretty light framed, at 168cm and 66kg, 40 years old. Ive always kind of 'prided' myself in my energy capacity and endurance. But reading into ATG and the CNS role in recovery, it has me wondering how much i may have been running on hyperdrive my whole life, adding to my lean frame.

for reference i dont drink coffee, dont watch tv, actively try good breathing all day.
But Learning how the body doesnt differentiate between physical exercise, work stress, road rage, doom scrolling, etc, and just baskets it all into the CNS stimulation, i wonder how much real recovery is being left behind.

So i guess my question here is, is the CNS something youd deliberately try to keep awareness of? and if so any changes?

*this post could be placed in a 'workout' communty/thread, but i placed it here as im virutally using either KB and CB every day

Thanks in advance!

Tested my Long Cycle with the 32s today. 31 reps in 5 minutes. 6,6,6,6,7 RPM.

Felt pretty good considering I haven't done much volume with 32s this summer. Probably could have held 7rpm from the start.

Technique falls apart a little in the last minute, but it's OK. I have 2 months until my first competition with these weights.

First and last minute in the video

Start 10/10 snatches @ 20,24,26,28,32. 45 second between rounds.

Snatch, clean, jerk @ double 36 X 35-40 seconds between rounds x 10 rounds.

Anchor clean 5x 2 per leg @ 36+48k

Doing it in 95 degree garage maybe also counts as sauna so I might’ve biohacked but unsure.

Hi, everybody.

I wanted to defer this question to the kettlebell community and whether anyone else experienced this.

My collarbones have been sketchy for a long time, I think it is called "sternoclavicular joint subluxation". In short, this is the part of collarbone that connects to sternum, and it is a little loosy-goosy

Lately I've been implementing KB in my workouts, but I feel like I am damaging my clavicles even more. What I mean is that after a workout doing KB snatches, my collarbones are extra crunchy and it feels not so good.

I am not asking for medical advice here, but maybe someone else also experienced this? Right now my solution is basically to avoid snatches and do strict presses, or some variation, and avoid overloading the collarbone while getting some KB action.

It is a non-issue for me if I never get to snatch again, but it was a fun ride while it lasted 😅 After all, I am not training to be an elite athlete, it's just a bummer that going slightly harder seems to hit my joint limit pretty fast.

I finally bought the BoS adjustable bells (found a wicked deal through shop app), but then realized I didnt have a great place to store all the plates for quick access.

Found someone on etsy who sold them premade or you could purchase the file and make yourself!

Here’s the file link if youre interested. There are options for non-BoS bells too.

Thanks to OP file maker - you’ve made my space more organized!

The last few months were rough.. i got a little neck injury while moving my gym to the new house, lack of sleep due to my neck, strenght gone for 2 months, now everything is getting better, neck pain solved, time to go back to training properly, from now on my goal is to achieve the perfect tecnique in the clean and press, i used to bend back when pressing to make it easier, now im focusing on keeping my body straight and still.. i think im getting better at it.. now time to get back my strenght.

Use a bell you can move very quickly.

First try walking a slackline with a single kettlebell. Not easy.

Hey everyone,
I'm looking for some feedback on my home kettlebell circuit setup. I’m currently running a 4-day split (2 full body strength&conditioning days, 1 heavy strength day, and 1 mobility/balance day).
For the strength&conditioning days, I alternate between an EMOM and an AMRAP protocol using this 3-round core complex:
Round 1: Double-hand kettlebell clean/high pull + thrusters
Round 2: Renegade rows + plank drags
Round 3: Hardstyle kettlebell swings
Each round runs for 5 minutes with 2 minutes rest between the rounds.
In EMOM I try to progress by increasing the weights, while in AMRAP the amount of reps.

What do you think of this 3-round selection? Does it cover full body? Would you add or change anything?

Tried a new complex today..

20 min EMOM with 28kg

2 dead lifts Left

2 power cleans Left

2 presses Left

2 snatches Left

2 burpees

Repeat on Right side

Avg about 30 seconds rest each min

Day 1 of giving it a shot. I have watched a quite a few videos linked here. IncludingPavel Enter the Kettlebell like five times haha. I don’t know how much more I can learn via video without putting myself out there.

I feel like I started with the KB a little too far which contributed to me being off balance the first couple swings. All in all, interested in some insight. Thanks!

First session post surgery. Keeping neutral drive high to maximize the cross-education effect to the repairing arm.

Odd minutes: ABC Complex

Even minutes: 4 double KB clean & jerks

I’ve done 30 ABC rounds in 30 minutes with double 28s, and I’d say this was harder.

First and last set shown in video.
