I’m gonna show you what I’m swinging!

Four HIMs posted this morning to sling some iron for Mammoth Balls. A fellow brother mentioned that “only women use kettlebells under 35 pounds.” That comment had three of us briefly questioning our life choices… and our manhood. But we pressed on pride bruised here’s how it went down…..

  • All the wives and moms
  • Arm circles
  • Copperhead squats
  • A lot of moaning
  • Imaginary jump rope

Grab the cindy’s and kettlebells

We made our way to the parking lot and lined up shoulder to shoulder. The format was simple. One PAX called out a kettlebell exercise for the group, then grabbed two Cindy’s for a 75-yard farmer’s carry while the rest of PAX got to work.

That carry was the timer. Once the HIM returned, the next man stepped up to call the next movement.

Rules?

  • No repeats.
  • If you call an exercise that’s already been done 5 burpees on the spot.

We burned through nearly every kettlebell move known to mankind swings, snatches, cleans, presses, squats, rows, halos, curls. Only one thing never made the cut the dreaded Turkish Getup

Numbers, Names and Prayer Request Wildwood took us out

Positive Note- Be grateful for what we all have! Be grateful for everything we CAN do!

Don’t Waste The Day!
