At what point do you start to use chalk in terms of long you work? This applies to snatches and long cycle.

Factors/Seminars

Lately, I've been re-engineering technique, programming, AND assistance work after having attended an IKSFA course. For example, I went from 322 reps one switch 16 kg to 494 reps one switch. I only stopped in the latter because I thought that I had completed 500 reps and miscounted(252/242 r/l). This is an example of programming, technique and assistance work applied. In such a short time. The other changed is 120 reps then 117 reps with 20 kg snatch in 10 minutes. Given my long limbs (suited for someone who is 6'5" or 6'6") I'm noticing that 24 reps per minute is my max pace. For example, my records so far... 240 reps with 16 kg in 10 minutes 240 reps with 18 kg in 10 minutes 237 reps with 20 kg in 10 minutes (lost 3 reps on the left hand) 22 kg through 32 kg who knows.... time will tell but its been a long time since I have felt this level of excitement. So, wow! Snatches have always been challenging, having competed for as long as I have, 2004? I'm excited because it is not certain where this will go. For those of you who follow, please hit me up for a seminar. With the 3 factors mentioned combined with platform experience, I recommend taking a course with myself and or IKSFA. People that I've worked with can tell you the importance of the mental game and getting rid of clutter when lifting. On another note, my numbers have changed recently already with lighter kettlebell records a significant amount. In other news, there will be a Seminar at KBCSD with Luis Cortes, and up and coming kettlebell pro IMO given his recent progress and passion for the sport. He and I will conduct a seminar in July and Crossfit Mission Gorge on kettlebells. For sport specific seminars, contact me and we can set something up. Regards. USKBLFTR

Seminar schedule

As it turns out, I've been coached by Sergey Rudnev, 5 x time world champion who has also coached world champions and the best lifters in the US.

I will have several seminars that will encompass fitness enthusiasts, cross training for sports, and specific kettle bell competitions.

These are seminars that both address technique and basic programming. Within the day I should be posting this on my facebook page "kettlebell education" Kettlebell Education







KETTLEBELL WARRIOR SEMINAR
February 18th

For Intermediate and Advanced only.
9-12:30 pm or 2-5:30.

Location: 4425 Dixie Hill Road, Fairfax, Va
Price: $99.99

This is a 4 hour seminar offered for Kettlebell Competitive Athletes. Learn from one of the Americans who has been with it from the beginning and still competitive to date for 8 years in the history of the US and the first Master of Sport in Biathlon/Long Cycle, but like you, I'm not done competing. As mentioned before, training under Sergey Rudnev, I plan to continue to achieve better than Master of Sport.

These slots are only 5 people so its semi private 4 hour seminar. There are only 10 spots total, 5 for the morning or 5 for the evening if it fills up I might open another spot on the following day.

The level of help you will receive is beyond the norm in seminars. There are not a lot of people, and the finer points of programming and technique will be revealed specific to each individual.

You will also learn to conquer your fears whatever they are in competition. Preparation for the body, mind and equipment will be ingrained. No kidding education and at a reasonable price.

Sincerely

Marty Farrell
