  1. 15-12-9, 25#, kips. That KB added up in short order. Repetitions of this do help technique. Hip extension definitely is the source of power here. Good WOD.

  2. CW: 10:39 35#, jumping pullups. The KB snatches were cool. I tried the first round alternating right and left. It seemed slow. I did the rest unbroken. When I got the swing/pull/push sequence juuuuust right the kettlebell came to rest soft as can be. Not all the time; my wrists are just a little sore!

  3. 15-12-9, 15#, jumping pullups-9:35. Little banged up on my arms today from the kettle bell hitting. First time doing these...so still trying to figure it out. I tried a few snatches with the 26# weight, but had difficulty getting the motion. Next time I will own that kettle bell.
