Garage Workout in the City

The beauty of kettlebells sometimes has to do with where they are being swung. I dropped by a fellow kettlebellers' place in the inner city, just minutes from one of the largest cities in the USA.
A garage, 3 trailer mats, a couple clocks, a bunch of kettlebells and 3 dudes of various affiliations, styles and reasons for being there.
It was a simple plan - get together and have some fun. We did.
Here was I did:

Warm up - 5 minutes
20 Kg jerk set
2.5 minutes x 2
5 rpm
Need to practice this more often. No rhythm.

16 Kg Snatch set
R - 15s
rest 15s
L - 15s
rest 15s
7 reps per side
15 sets
210 snatches
Have this down so moving back to 24 Kg after calluses heal.

24Kg One arm swing
R - 10 swings
rest 15s
L- 10 Swings
rest 15s
10 sets

Pull ups
Weight vest snatches
Stretch

Solid workout. Very hot! Get the hands healed and learn to loosen the grip on my snatch technique.

Dude, I am glad you enjoyed it. We've got to do this again and get some more lifters. We can drag another mat out into the driveway, and we an even put a couple of lifters in the yard near the pullup bar.

Or, we can load up and go to Memorial, Spotts, or another park in the area. Spotts has a nice hill that is conducive to sprints.
