A Couple of Challenging....


.....but moderate (in duration, anyway) workouts over the past couple of days:

1. A toxic mix of 30 second intervals, including: push-ups, planks, and kettlebell swings, squats, snatches, cleans, presses, and rows. For 10 minues. Times 3. That was yesterday.

2. Just swing, baby. Kettlebell single arm swings. 600 of 'em. In 100 repetition sets, with a 30 second recovery. Changed hands every 10 reps. Under 20 minutes for the total workout. HR in aerobic range, banging on the anaerobic threshold, thoughout (my average was 114--includes rest interval--and my highest reading was 135. Cathy's numbers were 131/146). The limiting factor is muscular, though, not cardiovascular. I used my 20 kg bell, Cathy used 12 kg. That was this morning.

My hands are a bit beat up. Tomorrow, I'll TGU--it's easier on the hands. I'll be ready to snatch again on Tuesday.
