Records were made to be broken...

Good day!

I must bring to your attention the awesome performances of Dr. Ram R and Dale H!

I devised this set of kettlebell exercises to be done 5 times for time:
1-Hand Swing x 5L 5R
Front Squat x 5L 5R
Clean and Press x 5L 5R
Front Lunge x 5L 5R

Dr. Ram set the men's record at 08.50.29 with a 12kg bell. He went non-stop through all 5 sets, no rest! The previous record was 09.17.99.

Dale set the ladies record of 09.24.26 with an 8kg bell. She also went non-stop except for a move from the garage to the lawn when it got too hot inside! The previous record was 10.10.79.

As you can see, both previous records were smashed! Well done Dale and Dr. Ram!

This kettlebell complex is great for overall conditioning and works ALL the major muscle groups in just 4 exercises. Plus you get to work on 4 of the six main KB movements. The only two missing are the Turkish Getup and the Snatch. Try doing TGUs for 3 mins before the routine and 5x5 snatches afterwards to work em all in 20 minutes or less!

I'll go for the 16kg record and post it here soon.

Do.
