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 - 20 kg kettlebell
36 sets (18 minutes) @ 7 reps per :15

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!

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.

Much easier than 20 was on Monday. Forearm muscles woke up, but didn’t burn.

grip endurance gave out, especially left side. Didn’t drop kettlebell, but grip definitely tired. Much more difficult than 15:15 protocol.
