Susan's Kettlebell Training

There isn't much out there that logs entire Kettlebell Training sessions. You can get them, but they aren't free. This blog is going to contain not only 3 full hour long Kettlebell training sessions a week BUT also 3 full hour Strength Training sessions and commentary by me: Susan J.f. Bartley, Personal trainer and RKC Level I & II at South Carolina Barbell in Columbia, SC

I have missed a few...

Friday - 4/16/10
No cardio as I was pooped.

Strength Training - heavy bench
we worked up to 135 raw which I got easily for the first time in my life. Then i tried 145 raw and missed it 3 times. Finally marc pulled out the squishy pad (it gives when you sink the bar in your chest so you get the mental help of a pad but you still have to press it about as far) and I got it easily. After that we just did assistance work which I can't remember.

Saturday - 4/17/10
I came in early to run and did 3.2 miles in 30 minutes. I made the mistake of taking my fat burner before running which I never do. The extra energy made me push hard on the treadmill and when I was done I felt ill. Didn't do much of KB class.

Here is what they did in class, it took the whole hour:
1 swing, 1 squat
2 swings, 2 squats,
3 swings, 3 squats
...all the way to 25 of each.

Monday - 4/19/10
I tried to do a 5 mile run but got bored with running slowly and did the elliptical instead. I know I can run 5 miles I am just having trouble doing it. Ended up with a combined 50 minutes of cardio.

Strength training -
Lat Pulls with different hand grips on the new Spud, Inc. lat pull down bar. 5 sets w/ 60 lbs. 10 reps.
Sit-up/Push up combo: 5 of each, then 6 of each to 20
Sandbag between the leg throws and sandbag load and squats until the end of the hour.

Tuesday - 4/20/10
I came in early to run this morning and did 3.2 miles in 29:45. Not to bad for a fat girl.

Tonight is the 1,000 rep challenge + 1 mile run. This is only the second time we will have tried it with the run so hopefully at least 1 person will complete it all.
