Kettlebell Athletics & Strong Women
Our first video today is of La Saun Taylor of Kettlebell Athletics Alexandia, VA. La Saun was only able to snatch the 24kg kettlebell one time before this visit to Kettlebell Athletics Base Camp in Philadelphia.
She squeezed out 3 reps on her right and 5 on her left. In my opinion, she had more in her but we'll save that for next month.
Likewise, La Saun was never able to press the 24kb kettlebell. She pressed it easily for several singles. This was after 2 hours of training.
The video below is not her best form as she was getting tired... she rushes the press a bit but all other reps were nice and crisp.
Keep kickin' ass La Saun.
Men, let this be a lesson ! We're slowly building an army of women that use the 24kg kettlebell for their standard size kettlebell.

Kettlebell Partner Swings
Kettlebell Partner Swings are a great way to add variety to your kettlebell training program.
Make sure that you and your partner have standard Kettlebell Swings perfected before attempting the Kettlebell Partner Swing.
Also, make sure that you don't put a spin on the kettlebell handle, try to keep the kettlebell handle perpendicular to the ground so your training partner can grab it more easily.
Enjoy.
