Kettlebell and muscles
We’ve been raising tents in the military this week. We’ve put them up in snowy weather, wet weather, dry weather and sunny weather. And then down again. Then up. And then down again, for about two days. We’ve become quite good at it and they’re absolutely massive tents. So this week has involved a lot of physical work.
I've also attended “kettlebell” for the first time. In the late 20th century Soviet science verified that repetition kettlebell lifting, is one of the best tools for all around physical development.
The instructor is the strongest man I’ve ever met. He’s Finish, but talks English during class. I'm glad, as speaking Swedish with a Finish accent sounds kind of harsh...
The one hour class went well and the instructor complimented my balance and asked: “What’s your sport?” I told him I used to figure skate when I was younger, which made me wonder: Are those jumps and sitting down pirouettes 15 years ago still paying off? I suppose the sports we practice as children, are vastly significant to our adult physique.
The kettle bells class is the best full body workout I’ve had in a long time and I can highly recommend it!
