Hello TEAM!

Currently at 1800. Feeling good, hands and hips are great, loving the mobility work in between. Tomorrow, I'll shoot for 400 to make it 2200, then 300 on Friday for 2500, then rest on Saturday.

Day 3! 400 done. Swing Challenge 2016 1,050!!
WHEW!!
That SUCKED. Did 400 today, October 3rd, 2016. During the Price is Right. Here's what I did
10 sets of 20 to begin. 200
20 sets of 10 on the minute for 20 minutes. 200
PRO TIP: When I allow myself to do 10's, I try to do them ON THE MINUTE consecutively. That way, I'm building my engine, and saving my grip. I also try and pepper in other movements in the Hinge, Push, Pull, Squat, Carry, 6th Movement (lunges/get ups, etc.) until the minute turns over. Today my 10 sets went like this.
Set of 10
5 Body weight squats
Set of 10
10 Cross Crawls
Set of 10
5 Push Ups
Set of 10
10 Rockbacks
Set of 10
3 OH Press each arm
Began at 11:00 with the first COME ON DOWNS, finished by 11:40, the second wheel spin. I took a few breaks here and there. Additional minutes in between the 20 sets and between the first and second 200's.
Grand Total over three days: 1,050.

October 1st 2016!
The 4th annual 10,000 Swing Challenge begins! Every year, dear friends and readers the weather cools off, the soup begins to simmer, the sounds of football ring through the air, and we begin to offend each other with political rhetoric! It must be October, which means it's time for the 10,000 Kettlebell Swing Challenge.
This was put forth by Dan John, with his article in T Nation. I have begun to do it as a personal challenge and swing refresher each October to honor the 10th month, I have my own little swing harvest.
I will be keeping track of my reps and sets here. Feel free to check in with me for accountability. In fact, if you are one of the few readers of this blog, I LOVE YOU, and nag me about this shit CONSTANTLY, PLEASE.
The weight is a 24kg KB, OR my 55 pound asshole bell from Modells. That's the one I use at home. It's a BEAR. The handle is thick and rough as HELL.
Today:
I broke them up because I had my final day of Snatched 2 at Mark Fisher Fitness. I did 120 in class.
6x20= 120 Snatched 2
Then I came home and did:
10 sets of 15=150 Did 15 on the minute for 10 minutes
OS Resets: Head Turns/Neck nods
Commando Rocking
LEGO Crawls x 5 on each side
Wrist Vents
3 sets of 10=30 10 on the minute for 3 minutes
SO 150+120+30=300
300 Day one. 9,700 to go.
