Awesome start to the weekend. Great workout this morning, those 30 sec sets had me sweating! Although I took advantage of a "bake sale" today I forced myself to get a grip before too much damage was done! I'll make a fresh pot of veg stew with beef for dinner,go for an hour long walk, and then get ready for the flea market tomorrow morning. The weather is supposed to be in the 80's on Sun. and reach 90 on Monday!

AC/DC.... perfect kettlebell music, I like your style. Plus you arms look awesome!

I bought Aaron a 24kg K'bell, he has been swinging regularly for the past week!

Mark Reifkind said...

You go Tracy, those heavy bells are fun!!

Tracy Reifkind said...

Fawn, AC/DC is standard training music for me but System of a Down is my favorite.

Can't wait to see how KB's will transform you both into lean, mean, muscular machines! LOL

Tracy Reifkind said...

Royce, After seeing how stinkin' strong the women were at the cert I'm determined to get stronger and put on some muscle! Jealousy motivates me!

Aaron Friday said...

Shit. If I'm going to be lean, I need to stop doing 12-oz. face pulls with beer.

Mark Reifkind said...

see aaron thats where you are wrong,if you do warrior diet you can still have your beer and be lean. just gotta swing the crap outa your 24 kg bell regularly.

Aaron Friday said...

Mark,

I got lean a few years ago by consuming 90% of my food at lunch and beers at night.

That, and daily Strongfortism.

So, I know the concept works. I just can't see waiting until the evening to eat anything.
