8/22/2010 - run; KB Burn play day

  • Run in the rain - greenlake & woodland park play fields. Nice and easy, felt good throughout, even on the hills. 5.0 mi., 51:46, 10:20/mi. 511 calories, so right about 100 cal./mi. HRM data is suspect; doesn't look like it kicked in for the 1st 10 min. or so. Data is here.
  • Purchased and downloaded Kettlebell Burn by Master RKC Geoff Neupert. Played around with the first day's program to get a feel for it.
  1. 15 min. TGUs to start off. Went with a 5 lb. dumbbell just to have some weight but still focus on good form. Keeping the chest open and shoulder packed (appeared to improve when chest open) seemed to really work well.
  2. 15 min. GSQ/one arm rows w/16kg. Got 9 sets of 5 GSWs & 5 rows L/R. Tried to minimize rest but a little hard to do at the end.
  3. 10 min. SW, :20/:40, 16kg. Hit 14 reps per 20 seconds. Open chest and jumping through the floor seemed to make the bell pop up. HR was between 140 and 150 at the end.
