Mainland Manuevers


The Danish RKC certification is a joint venture between the DragonDoor Corporation and Kettlebells.Dk Aps.

The popular RKC instructor course founded by Pavel Tsatsouline has over the years developed to one of the most highly regarded and sought after personal trainer courses.

Back in 2006 Kettlebells.Dk took on the challenge of bringing the popular course to Europe and in August of that year the first Danish RKC took place.

Kettlebells.Dk Aps is proud to continue hosting the yearly Danish RKC certification program as the popularity of this course continues to increase. The Danish RKC certification is run as much as possible to resemble the certification when it is held in the States. Pavel Tsatsouline will of course be present at the cert along with a yearly changing staff of Senior instructors, Team Leaders and assistant instructors. This year I will be serving as a Team Leader for this cert and will be surrounded by a mass of competent, motivated, and dedicated instructors. We spread the school of strength's tentacles wider every year. And with every graduating class of RKCs we see the program take on new forms, in habbit new vessels, and rewire human hardware at all points on our globe. I am, we are, this is, the Russian Kettlebell Challenge.

Some Kind Of Monster

Build a steam engine in your gut and a v8 in your pelvis. Big block bastard with lots of kick and the smarts to manage itself. Begin with some joint mobility. . .

20080311

0311, for every intent and purpose

The tribute, on their day, to a band that was very important to me in my youth, and still entertains me to this day, from Omaha, Nebraska, 311.

"The Hive"
11 Pull Ups. If you scoff at 11 reps, strap a KB on your foot. They shouldn't be a joke to you.
20 Swings R
20 Jerks L
20 Jerks R
20 Swings L
10 Tsnatches R
10 Tsnatches L [111 reps]
Once you affirm that initial swing, you should only set the bell down when you have performed all 100 reps. Yes, you.

S&M Fast 100 Snatches
20 LR 15 LR 10 LR 5 LR [50 each arm, again, one set, and time yourself [211 reps]

Long, long have I been wanting to say this.
100 squat thrusts. Done in a time no more than one and one-half the time of your snatches. If you busted 100 snatches in 5:00, SQTH in under 7:30.

311 reps.

OK, so just launching an arbitrary high rep assault has fallen into the hands of Crossfit affiliates and other sick buggers everywhere, myself proud to be included. But this is an interesting composition I believe. And it is an all access workout. One bell and a bar is all you need. If you read my previous post you will know already that after a week-plus layoff and a cranky hip, the positive vibe has prevailed and in the spirit of my 15 year old self who exalted the name of this band, I will train 311 on 311. I plan on blaring the first few tracks from "Music", their 1992 debut. A brutal stew of Ivory flow in homage to ebony greats, and some harder tunes with a youthy balls.
