Saturday's Workout

We had a great workout saturday:

100 swings warmup w/ 12 Kg
3 sets of 10 Short swing flips (way to complicated to explain but they are new technique to teach the snatch and I was trying them out)
3 sets of 5 reps each short swing flips, judo chops & snatchs
100 swing high pulls

something else but I can't remember.

The huge thing about this class was that we had a new member - Tina. She was so awesome. I always start out newbies with just the swing. I teach them the basics and then give them a whole lot to do. While the rest of the class works we all sort of watch the newbie and help give them hints to perfect form. I gave Tina 100 swings w/ the 8 Kg and 100 swings w/ the 12 Kg. Towards the end of class, Tina had about 50 swings to go and she was looking tired. The rest of the class was stopping to stretch and I offered that Tina could stop where she was a stretch with us. Instead she opted to stick with the swings and finish all 200. That was SOOOOO awesome. We have such a great crew of hard workers and I am confident that Tina will fit right in. Good job Tina!

Marc and I saw Batman yesterday. Great movie! Heath Ledger really is awesome. AND only 5 more days until the X-Files. In fact I am sitting here right now watching one of my favorite episodes: Bad Blood. Very funny stuff!
