Fat Kettle Belle

So yesterday I started back up with the full kettle bell workout I've been using: 12 reps Kettlebell Deadlift 12 reps Goblet 12 reps Russian Swings 12 reps Around the World 12 reps American Swings X1 set with 8kg kettle bell and X2 sets with 10kg kettle bell. This morning I tried to turn over in bed and had terrible pain in my left lower back. Trying to get out of bed was even more interesting. If it wasn't for the pain, it would have been quite comical. Searching on the internet, it seems likely to be my form and I think I have pinpointed it to swinging too low. Over the course of my research I have found that I should aim the kettle bell on the down move towards my 'zipper' and also (just in case) on the up, stop at 1 'o'clock just in case I am overextending. Today, I will try to complete my workout using my 6kg kettle bell until I get my form right. The 8kg kettle bell that I used yesterday is far too big for kettle bell swings. The handle is quite...

Completely went over the top this week, I've had a whole box of chocolate fingers to myself, chinese, chippie, pizza, lasagne etc etc. Full blown out binge for me. Surprisingly haven't put any weight on but my stomach looks huge. Seriously need to look at my diet. Have ordered some Huel meal replacement drinks, hopefully I can stick to it and just have 1 main meal a day. I am not very good at this dieting thing. Well, better get reading the booklet. Quite pleased with my box of goodies. If you order directly from the site you get a free shaker, measuring cup and a free t-shirt with your first order. Let's hope it fills me up. 😮 Image Credits: Pixabay : Free-Photos

The countdown begins! I need a goal and have found one that I think is achievable for me. It's February 3rd so a short month. I will have to go over to make up 30 days, but that is no problem. I will be alternating between a 6kg kettle bell (13lb) and a 10kg kettle bell (22lbs) that I have just started with. This is a good weight for me to really push myself. I am still a beginner but hope that I am doing the kettle bell swing correctly. My first workout took 25 minutes with breathers. I chose to do them all in one go, but these can be spread throughout the day any way you choose. I used the 10kg kettle bell. 15 reps x 6 sets 10 reps x 1 set 20 reps x 5 sets 15 reps x 6 sets 10 reps x 1 set 300 Kettle Bell Russian Swings! Day 1. Let's see if I notice any difference in my weight and shape after 30 days. Is anyone with me?
