First week of kettlebell training is DONE! Tonight’s fun consisted of a quick warmup and then 5 minutes of get ups. I didn’t feel like doing the full warmup so I just did one cycle of warmups and flailed my arms around a bit to get my shoulders ready. For my first get up workout, I wore wrist wraps and got 6 reps - I was toast at the end of those 5 minutes. Today I did 10 in 5 minutes and could have done more if I went longer. I was breathing hard and had a full body sweat going - what an intense, but short workout this was! The Bulldog is feeling lighter every time I use it, and I did not use wrist wraps this time around. I can feel my wrists getting stronger, my endurance is growing, and my shoulder stability is improving. Get ups FTW.
