Thanks Marianne,

I did this workout again today but this time I did Suz’s section; I see what you mean about forearms!!

My TGUs were better this time, but I still need to practice, as you say.

My time was 19m 41s, using 8 kg.
I see this workout as low weight, lots of reps style which is/should be good for my badminton.

I have noticed that my speed around court has improved, so your workouts are really helping me here, many thanks, as always

Cheers, Peter

Practice makes perfect. Especially the TGU. It’s good you didn’t go too heavy, much better to practice your form 🙂

Good to hear that you are noticing your improvements in the swinging exercises. Perfecting that hip flexion to extension (hip snap) is key to so many exercises, especially KBs – so well done !

Did it in 17 mins but my TGUs were awful, I do them so rarely that my style is useless. Once I got up, I couldn’t get back down again, how bad is that!

Anyway the rest of the workout was fine, I feel that I am developing the clean and snatch methods for swinging the kettlebell round my hand now, so that’s some progress at least.

cheers, Peter

Hey Frank, I just had a break when I needed one. I just thought I’d do the swings in a row to better my time, as I knew the TGUs would hold me back. It was a tough one!

Went up to 12 kg at my kettlebell class last night though, it hurt!
I had to go back to 8kg for the halo’s we did.

Love this site, cant wait for more posts!
