Swings Dec 20, 2011

Swing day
No warm up
15 minutes - 20 swings @ 24kg. Active cleaning/picking up children recovery 1 minute
5 minutes - 25 swings @ 24kg. 30 second recovery.

Grip endurance may be part of a technique issue. There were times were I caught myself pulling the kettlebell or stabilizing the kettlebell instead of just letting my arms hang like ropes.

Excited to get the new CAP kettlebell and possibly the Beast from CFF.com

I don't know what I will do with the Beast. It may just sit in the corner awaiting to be deadlifted on occassion and perhaps swung. As of this posting I have no desire to tame the beast. 24kg RKC Snatch test would be a good accomplishment for me.

Will be starting a food journal to also help dissect my allergen issue.
