Sunday
8am Bikram yoga
KB workout w/12kg, 14kg, 16kg,

40 2 hand swings, 1 min
30 sec rest
40 transfers, 1 min
30 sec rest
10/10/10/10 one hand swings, 1 min
30 sec rest

I rotated these 3 sets with the 12kg first, then the 14kg, then the 16kg, for a total of 9 sets before starting over again with the 12kg. I repeated the rotation 3x, ending with an additional 3 set rotation w/12kg. Each 3 set rotation took 4.5 min to complete x 10 = 45 min. (30 sets total, 12 set w/12kg, 9 sets w/14kg, 9 sets w/16kg) 1200 swing reps

No warm up just these three sets done with progressively more weight. The short work to rest ratio got harder as the weight increased.

Diana,

It was fun, I'll have to do it again, similar, but a little harder!

Thanks for the e-mail.

Hi Tracy,

I found out about you through some post on a kb forum. I'm really inspired by you. You have come along way baby! I hope to lose 70 pounds this year. After I had my baby I was 214. Now I am 200 almost 17 months later. I started using kettlebells about 4 months ago. I absolutely love them! I will be using some of your workouts soon. Thanks for being such and inspiration.
