Found a website with an outline for working up to doing 200 consecutive squats. So I started that for my days when I’m not doing mV02 work with the kettlebell.
19 reps, rest 60 sec.

Kettlebell 15:15 snatch protocol
7 reps per :15, 20 kg kettlebell.
Only did 20 sets today. I was going to do 40 today, but I have had a pretty nasty cold since Saturday, and working out made me start coughing pretty bad, so I stopped. Probably not a bad thing to have a backdown day. So I’ll do 40 sets on Thursday!

15:15 snatch protocol, 20kg kettlebell
30 sets (15 minutes) @ 7 reps per :15
I thought I was all badass because I could do 80 sets of 15:15 with the 16kg kettlebell. The 20 kg kettlebell definitely humbled me. I was breathing harder and sweating a LOT more after 30 sets with the 20kg than I was after 80 sets with the 16kg. Whew!

Kettlebell mVO2 snatch cadence test
28 reps in final minute
Rx=7 reps for 15:15
17 reps for 36:36
Been doing that already, so I’m right on track. Just wanted to test to make sure.
Edit: Ha! After taking a shower I moved the kettlebell out of the middle of the floor, and set it down next to the other kettlebells. The 16kg is the smallest bell I have with me, and when I put down the bell I used for the test, I put it next to the others only to realize I had used the 20kg kettlebell for the mVO2 test! Oops! So that means I’m right on track to move up to the 20kg kettlebell for the max VO2 training.

All-day snowboarding at Monarch Pass. 8 runs @ 850 vertical feet per run = 6,800 vertical feet of snowboarding. Had a blast!

24 sets, 17 reps per set (alternate hands every set)
Much easier than 20 was on Monday. Forearm muscles woke up, but didn’t burn.
