Wow, Babyphat! Awesome job.

I did 200 more, so 1000 left. I work out with the trainer in the morning, so I might get in extra swings then.

Thanks girls. What is the 10k challenge?

I started Kettlebells through a class advertised in 2007, back when it was still very new/unheard of in North America (on a sandy beach on the west coast, how hippy). It was a lot of fun!

I have a full set ranging from 8-32kg and still struggle with windmills... ah!

Hey Ladies! The trainer kicked my butt this morning. Hoping I can get at least 100 swings in this evening though.

Sacha, the 10k challenge is trying to do 10,000 swings in the month of January! I think there's a link posted by Aunt Sheshie earlier in the thread. Crazy huh???

Have a great day everyone!

i was soo exhausted after running on the threadmill i only got in 50, but its better than nothing lol

200 swings today, so 800 left. Had a good workout with the trainer this morning and am already feeling it. Should sleep soundly tonight.

Computer troubles yesterday... I struggled with the wretched thing for a few hours & finally gave up & went & bought a new one... as a result, I never got any KB swings done... I'll do them this morning, though, but I doubt I'll double up to make up for yesterday... doing 200 a day, even if I miss a few days during the month, will still get me past my original goal... I'm so glad to be doing this challenge with you gals... we don't have a large group, but we make up for it in fun!..

hugs

[BABYPHAT4ME]

sorry for your computer troubles aunt Sheshie, glad your up and running, dont worry you will be done before the new year begins, i am so happy you joined us, and yes its a small group and we are all very encouraging an i love it :-)

[jenjen]

Wow, Babyphat! That's amazing. I got 100 in today (none yesterday), so 500 to go.

[BABYPHAT4ME]

HEy guys are any of you seing any definition in your arms.......

[jenjen]

I have noticed some, but I also do other workouts with kettlebells and weights 2-3 times a week. I can't say that it's all from swings, but it sure doesn't hurt!

[BABYPHAT4ME]

i notice defination in the back of my arms, an i have gotten quite stronger as well, i know i only have 300++ left but i willl continue doing it until the end of the year.......i am going to start a new thread soon for the 10,000k kettlebell challenge to see who else wants to hop on the bandwagon
