RKC Rob Lawrence, whom I had the pleasure of speaking with at the 2005 Kettlebell Convention in Las Vegas, emailed me a few weeks ago to set up a time when he, myself, and anyone I know might be interested in, as he put it "making a hard run at the SSST and the UST". I agreed to count for, and motivate him. As he will do the same for me. In addition, Rob also offered to tailor a set of training protocols for me. 16 workouts designed to have me shattering my PR by early april. I have been following these workouts, and FEELIN these workouts. I took a look at the leader board tonight. I scored 202 reps in ten minutes with the 24kg kettlebell. From where I sit right now, that number looks like a warm up. I have not been this jazzed about testing in awhile. It is a real solid training program, it involves reps per minute. example, at 70% pace, I rattle off 14 reps in a minute, and rest for the remainder of that minute, until the next minute rolls over, then I bang it out again repeat for 6 minutes. The reps, pace, and times change over the course of 16 workouts, and by the time I'm up, it looks a lot like 250+ from here. And that's where I'll stop. Don't want to get ahead of myself here.

Cheers.

  2. Sounds great! I have no doubt that you will smash 250+ in the snatch.

    I have never tried a 10 minute snatch test,5 miuntes, yes, never 10. As a 100 meter sprinter I guess I can use my sport requirement as an excuse not to do it. Although I would like to try it one day.

    Keep it rocking!
