Today I held the first kettlebell seminar and demo @ Sports Fitness and Fun tonight. I had 20 people sign up and 14 people show up. Which was a good turnout for it coming out so quick. I made a flyer and I talked to a few members to bring up the interest. In the seminar I discussed the history of the kettlebell, the benefits of using, the basic six exercises and who uses them. The group responded well to the seminar and I was able to get the members to try the different kettlebell exercises. They all did great and I was very happy. I believe that more people will now be interested in kettlebell training not only because its great but because it works.
Workouts on the on other hand have been going good. I am usually getting a series of presses with the 24kg and 32kg. Swings and snatches with 24kg and 32kg for multiple sets of 10 and 5 reps. I am still working on pistol squats and bottom up presses and TGUs.
Another sport that I am getting into is Sambo. I am helping out a friend who is getting ready for a huge tournament in Russia. I am helping him out with his boxing and he is really improving. Punches are faster and crisper. Since it is combat sambo rule are a bit like MMA. I teach boxing he teaches me grappling. It a great sport and just looking up things online I find that kettlebells and sambo go great together.
