Out of Order

What a week-end.

I played with a Kettle-Bell. Those Russians know how to kick your arse. For those that don't know what a kettle-bell is, picture a 36kg cannonball, with a handle. It's a lot of fun, but I am waiting for my forearm to snap when the bell comes crashing down onto it.

I finally got my Original Venture Industries shirt. I really like it. It's in my top 3 of shirts from T-Shirt Club.

People who work with kettlebells are VERY fit and usually VERY strong.

Yeah. They kicked my arse!

Did a bunch of cleans, presses, swings, etc. It was a short (perhaps 30 minutes total), but dayum! I hurt all over (in a good way). I am very glad the gym has high ceilings. I couldn't do this at home.
