Here's a pic of me

Ever done a kettlebell snatch? You start with the kettlebell on the ground, squat (of course), and, keeping your arm straight, shoot up into a standing position, bringing your elbow up as high as you can. Then, when inertia causes the kettlebell to kinda float in space, you punch it up above your head.

Then you repeat.

A lot.

The kettlebell I use weighs 16 kg, which is about 35 lbs. It's heavy.

Here's a picture of me doing kettlebell snatches. Apparently my form is pretty good! (The Mick Jagger pose, with my arm behind my back, is to keep me from pushing myself up with my free hand on my knee. Plus, I'm going on tour.)

I'm working on a post about the No-Gi Mundial this past weekend. It was quite a tourney. A galvanizing event for me, as you will see.
