I think that will be a great read for everyone.<br /><br />I'll be in line for both your DVD and your book. ;) I really enjoy reading your blog. You always have interesting workouts that keep the workouts from feeling like the same routine over and over again. I'm really bad at just a straight timed workout, so the rep goals feel like little victories during the workout. It's great.<br /><br />Thanks!Haleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03963389090924606335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1813295658825716967.post-32870568486190586752010-05-23T04:15:47.348-07:002010-05-23T04:15:47.348-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1813295658825716967.post-33026613879147472092010-05-20T16:52:56.440-07:002010-05-20T16:52:56.440-07:00Jennifer,

Although I have the highest respect for the 12kg....I always find a way for it to kick my ass on a regular basis!Tracy Reifkindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07868257020358013257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1813295658825716967.post-64785382894876594072010-05-20T16:48:22.589-07:002010-05-20T16:48:22.589-07:00Diana,

But I think I'm going to collaborate with Mark on a blogpost about women concerns about "bulking up", and how kettlebell swing training is the perfect answer to what all women want (and most men!)....I haven't forgottenTracy Reifkindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07868257020358013257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1813295658825716967.post-18157206495235840002010-05-20T16:42:50.832-07:002010-05-20T16:42:50.832-07:00Meg....I knda "crashed and burned" in th...Meg....I knda "crashed and burned" in this mornings workout....the 16kg snatch ladder may have to wait another week.....NOT, lol!<br /><br />And seeing how I haven't found a way to swing 4 bells at a time (yet), I'll have to share....so swinging dbl 14's we're both covered!Tracy Reifkindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07868257020358013257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1813295658825716967.post-37934063412090311482010-05-19T19:54:12.779-07:002010-05-19T19:54:12.779-07:00Dang I love your blog!!

I own a 14kg (hangs head in shame as it is from another company) already and found it INVALUABLE for transitioning not only myself but my clients from the 12kg to the 16kg.. cant wait to have my own dragon door 14kg..<br /><br />thanks for the snatch ladder idea... I have been training for the RKC in Orlando in October and have just hit the 100 mark in 5 minutes with the 16kg...
