Meet the Girls:

Bouncing Betty, Big Bertha, the Medusas, Svetlana, and Sonya.
Not pictured is Kummel. He’s basically worthless. I’d use him as a door stop, but I’m afraid the door would break his handle, then he’d be worthless and no good to even himself ; )

I was at the RKC Kettlebell Certification as a victim yesterday. Basically I was just a test crash dummy for a future KB instructor. We only went over Turkish Getups and Swings. I learned a few things – keep my shoulders in, put a little more effort on the down swing rather than just letting gravity pull the bell down, and a few more details to the TGU’s. I also got 25% off on my two new bells: a second 24kg (for doubles) and a 40kg named Bouncing Betty.

The Blog. OK. I may need this blog. Back in the glory days all I had to do was look in the mirror at my Adonis like physique and that was enough to keep me motivated, but now…who knows. I’ve been slack, lax, and undisciplined in the past month and a half. I figure if Galan’s gonna man up and keeps up the good work, I’ll keep him company.

Also, I was a little miffed at Swami for pasting ghey pictures to my posts. It was kind of like shooting fish in a barrel since I couldn’t reciprocate. Oh well, maybe I had the wrong perspective. At least he was dedicated for 5 minutes a couple times a week ; )

I can tell already that I’m going to be sore tomorrow. But I heard that GH loves lactic acid, so that’s a good thing.
