Today I did a kettlebell workout at home. It went pretty well. Kettlebell training is no joke--very hardcore--I love it!!! It's this new movie coming out that involves fighting/boxing and training combat style, I don't remember the name of it, but the preview showed one of the fighters training with a kettlebell.
This morning I did a 50 minute inclined brisk walk. This afternoon, I practiced and trained with the kettlebell. The kettlebell that I'm practicing with weighs 26 lbs. This is my workout:
*10 minutes (20 sets, 30 seconds each set) kettlebell swings
*12 Turkish get ups (I practiced with a light weight dumbell for this exercise because the 26lb kettlebell is too heavy to be doing this exercise without a spotter).
*Sumo squats holding kettlebell 5 sets, 10 reps
*Russian twists (holding 26lb kettlebell) 5 set, 20 reps
*ab crunches 5 sets, 20 reps
*kettlebell one-arm row 3 sets, 8 reps
*standing calve raise (holding kettlebell) 3 sets, 20 reps
*incline lunges (own body weight) 3 sets, 10 reps each leg
*Step ups
*30 minute brisk walk on treadmill
I haven't messed up on my diet in 11 days, yeah!!! I have been eating a lot of cashews today--I ate the whole canister of cashews in only a few hours. I don't know why I am wanting cashews in abundance, but they are so delicious. I try to eat a lot of almonds becuase they have tons of fiber--4g of fiber per serving. Where as cashews have less than one gram of fiber per serving. I don't think I will be buying cashews anymore because I neglect my other nuts that are fiber rich. By the end of today, I will have had about 12-13 servings of nuts. I know that is a lot of fat, but I'm on a high fat, low carb nutrition plan. I love it!!! Thanks Dr. Mauro DiPasquale, you are a genius!!! If you haven't read the anabolic diet by Dr. Mauro DiPasquale, your missing out.
Did I mention that my RKC instructor, Bob Budai, rocks? Well, Bob Budai Rocks!!!
I supplemented my diet with amino acids, EAS Betagen, a multivitamin/mineral, whey isolate, and flax oil.
Have a great day!!!
