Like Vikings

Today's Theme: Viking Warrior Conditioning.
Three of the six students in class set new personal bests in the 15:15 snatch protocol!

Today's Group Training
PRESS: 20 minutes of  Turkish Get-Ups  (RKC Approved Hardstyle)
PULL: 20 minutes of RKC Hardstyle Snatches...like a Viking!   Watching a room full of adults torture themselves like this for 20-minutes brought a tear to my eye, a tiny tear. Very inspiring.

Today's Personal Training
PRESS: One Arm Press Ladders with the 36kg kettlebell.  5 Ladders of 3 rungs = 30 presses per arm.
PULL: 9 rounds of  Snatches. 20 reps every 36 seconds.  (My forearms are still quivering making it difficult to type)
