    Form check time!

    @dougbillie I don't like the way you pass the bell to the other side I would rotate my back instead of moving the girya... just sayin!

    “Kentucky Burpee”

    @mgunn0103 For the curious are burpee cycles: You clean and jerk once, put the bells down, then do a pushup on the handles. Repeat until exhaustion. It really kicks your ass.

    A recap of my transition from running and cycling to kettlebell training

    @equinelover Impressive walk through! I think this is super inspiring for a lot of people. I 've been in a similar path (except I was too lazy and cheap to go for simple). Started with bells in 2017, finished rop twice last year and now transitioning to double 24s. My sport is BJJ (thing of the...

    Rite of Passage “Graduation”—how to move up bell sizes?

    @chavaayanna So I designed it like this: for each block, 20 swings and 8 presses (both arms). I did anything from 2 (8 presses per arm, 16 total) blocks, to 5 blocks (20 presses per arm). In a 5/4 scheme, one block would be: 5 swings, rest, 5 swings, rest, 5 swings, rest, 5 swings, rest and...

    Is 300 swings/day effective on its own?

    @nipun Don't swings is great to have a better swing! In order to get in shape, what shape are you looking for? I think that for a healthy state you could target movements, push pull hinge and squat. There is a lot of.info in the wiki here and the r/kettleballs. It takes some reading though

    Awkward 6 - 9 rep range

    @youngman4god Eat more, work with a heavier weight for a while in lower reps, work with lower wright for higher reps ... Try to build your back with pullups, the plateau will pass
