Kettlebells: Workshop and training

Saturday 12th & Sunday 13th
Modern Kettlebell Sport Workshop with with Arseny Zhernakov, HMS, from Russia (affiliated with IKFF). Not very physically demanding, but lots of good info. Besides GS technique (the three lifts), especially interesting themes were auxilliary training (e.g. barbell), judging and physical responses to 10 minute sets.

It was also nice to meet the participants, both old and new friends of iron. Eleiko lent us their facilities for free.Very good localities.

Monday 14th
Easy jogging: 6km

Tuesday
LC 2x20kg: 5,5
LC 2x24kg: 5,47,14

SC jerk 2x24kg: 5
SC jerk 2x30kg: 5

Clean 2x30kg: 10
Farm walk 2x40kg,32,30,24,20kgs: 45 sec walk, 45sec rest each weight

The farm walk... don't know why I did it like that. Made my grip tired anyhow.

Thursday 17th
LC 2x20kg: 5,5
LC 2x24kg: 5
LC 2x30kg: 3, 11(2rpm),5,5
LC 2x24kg: 4x 8reps (8rpm 1min rests)
Black LC 2x24kg (swing-swing, c & j): 3min

Felt good. As always a few sessions focusing on lighter bells make me feel weaker when using heavier bells. I don't think strenght can disappear that fast, so I guess it is mental, possibly neurological/motorical.

I have been lazy regarding this blog for a week. Thus I just write briefly. Lots more could be said about the MKS-seminar, I will return to it eventually.
