Tracy Reifkind's Training Food and Thought

Overweight since childhood,I spent most of my 30's tipping the scales around 250lbs. At age 41 I took charge of feeding myself by preparing all of my own meals, no more fast foods! I created a way to use my love of cooking, food, and eating to permanently lose over 100lbs. During this time I discovered kettlebells and my own style of training The Kettlebell Swing, bringing out my inner athlete and erasing all signs of former lifelong obesity. It's never too late, YOU CAN DO IT!

Thanks for posting this combination. I did this routine today and my palm turned black: I literally sweated off the paint from my DragonDoor 16kg. Not a problem. Starting the new year with full of energy, thanks to you. :)

Guy,

I'm assuming you did the first 5 rep workout?

I posted a 200 rep swing set in my last blog post...try that one, it's fab!

EszterCs,

Nice! I did this with the 16kg also. Next time try it with the 20kg for the 5 rep sets only. Or all of them...knock yourself out!
