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!

Tracyrif's Tuesday Training 16kg Snatch/Press
Here is my Tuesday workout. I will post the accompanying "key" to the "Demo Swing Video" in my next post
Demo Swing "Key" video
320 swing reps w/12kg
Class workout
200 swing reps w/ 14kg, 10 min
530 swing reps w/16kg, 22 min
snatch warm up w/12kg
sn/tr x 8 x 2 sets (16 sn, 2 min)
sn/rk/tr x 6 x 2 sets (12 sn) (snatch "rack", or "negative press" to the rack position of a "clean")
sn/rk/tr x 6 + sn/tr x 8 x 1 set = 1 min/30 (14)
sn/rk/press/tr x 4 x 2 sets (30/30 x 2 = 2 min, 8 sn, 4 press) (snatch, "rack", press, "over the top into a transfer swing)

sn/rk/pr/tr x 4 + sn/rk/tr x 6 + sn/tr x 8 x 1 set (1.5 min/1 min)
I might have done some of these with the 14kg...I can't remember.....

I went on to complete a similar workout w/16kg for three rotations (video demonstrates the last rotation)
sn/tr x 8 x 1 (30/30)
sn/rk/tr x 6 x 1 (30/30) ("rk" = negative press into the "rack" position of a "clean")
sn/rk/tr x 6 + sn tr x 8 (1 min/30)
sn/rk/press/tr x 4 (30/30)
sn/rk/tr x 6 + sn/tr x 8 = 1 min/1 min
sn/rk/press/tr x 4 + sn/rk/tr x 6 + sn/tr x 8 = 1.5 min/1 min
repeat 3 times
192 snatches, 24 presses
I ended the workout with more 16kg snatches
5 reps R "on the 30 sec"
5 reps L "on the 30 sec"
5 R, 5 L "on the 30 sec"
5 rotations = 100 snatches, 7.5 min

Just did the snatch to negative press to front squat this morning!
ReplyDeleteI was memorized by the dude "rockin" that elliptical behind you-phew, I was getting tired just watching him. I hope he takes it easy now the rest of the day!
{insert sarcastic bitch tone anywhere there!}
Diana,
ReplyDeleteHe meets with a fellow RKC (ll) to train with afterwards...and they do minimum kettlebell work! I guess some people think 10 minutes on the eliptical is better than 10 minutes of swings...?
Most people hate 10 minutes of swings because it truly can and does kick your arse!
ReplyDeleteSad, just sad that folks would rather "skate" in the air on the elliptical.
That was fun, Tracy! I especially like the snatch-negative press-press-transfer combo! I'd love it if you did an entire DVD of snatch routines...those Fab Five ones would be great, too.
ReplyDeleteThat guy should get off the elliptical and snatch! xx
Diana, I was mezmorized by the "Frozen Tundra." I remember having dinner in the Presidents Box a few years ago and given the entire tour of Lambeau. :)
