Wow.
Raise your hand if you're the WORST BLOGGER EVER.  (Blogger Raises hand, then slaps self for referring to self in third person).  That settles that.  Worst. Blogger. EVER.  BUT, the following is something I've been working on.  It's a series of KB Complex workouts based on one of my very FAVORITES, The Princess Bride.  In this workout scheme, YOU, the ACHIEVER are WESTLEY.  Chasing the three bandits and ButterCup.  Each workout is your individual fight. I hope you enjoy this, dear Reader.


DAY 1:
HELLO! This workout is named Inigo Montoya!  It killed your father, PREPARE TO DIE! : Blogger used a 20kg bell for this one, and was SMOKED!
On the LEFT SIDE FIRST...Achiever performs

2 1-Arm Swings
2 1-Arm Cleans
2 1-Arm Press
2 Offset KB Front Squats
2 Snatches
(Then Achiever smiles, and says to themselves, "I know something you don't know, I AM NOT LEFT HANDED!" Achiever switches to the right hand and repeats.)
After right has done the 2 series, move back to the left and do:
4 1-Arm Swings
4 1-Arm Cleans
4 1-Arm Press
4 Offset KB Front Squats
4 Snatches
Switch to Right hand, Repeat

Then Left Again for 6's, 8's etc.    Go up to 10 if you can.  I could NOT.  This workout killed your father. Prepare to DIE.



DAY 2:

The Fezzig/Andre the Giant/ANYBODY WANNA PEANUT?

Blogger used 2 24kg Bells, and set 15 minutes on the clock and go AMRAP.

Leopard Crawl (Climbing the ropes of the Cliffs of Insanity)
10 Double Sumo DLs (Picking Up Rocks to throw)
5 High Pulls Each Side (Throwing Rocks at Westley)
360 KB Halos (Achiever performs a halo, turns a quarter turn, halos, etc.)  (Westley on Fezzig's Back)
Suitcase Carry (Carrying Princess Buttercup)


DAY 3: The Vizzini!!

Short and Sweet, just like the amazing scene with WALLACE SHAWN! Blogger used 2 24kgs and was wishing for Iocaine Powder by the END.

TABATA KB 360 Front Squats!!! 8 Minutes 20 seconds ON, 10 seconds OFF!! After round 1, the Achiever turns and faces the back for round 2, then front for Round 3.  These are the goblets of wine that Vizzini and Westley debate over!  The 360 turn is to confuse the drinker which is which!  This is almost as bad as going against a Sicilian when DEATH is on the LINE!


There you have it friends and Achievers!  I hope it brings you joy and HOTNESS! I loved writing it up!
