Kettlebell training---Taking my training to another level

I'm so excited. Tomorrow I have an appointment with a Russian Kettlebell challenge (RKC) certified personal trainer. He is going to teach me the basics of training with the kettlebell. After, I learn the basics I plan on learning advanced techniques in following sessions. I'm so excited. I will buy my own personal kettlebells this weekend--maybe even tomorrow. My personal trainer is also a physical therapist, so he will be a stickler for form and technique---which is what I want. My personal trainer also teaches kettlebell aerobics classes on Sundays, so I will be attending those to get more ideas for my own training at home. My main goal is to transform my body to its fullest potential, and maybe eventually I will compete in some kettlebell contests. I'm going to take the Russian Kettlebell Challenge certification next year.

Today, I worked, rested, read, and did some cardio. It was a pretty easy day for me, but tomorrow I will expect to be challenged--I can't wait!!!

My diet is going very well. I'm having absolutely no sugar/carb cravings, and I'm taking in less than 50 grams of carbs per day. However, I am consuming a lot of healthy fats and a lot of protein. I will carb up this weekend. Hopefully, I won't go to crazy with the carbs, but if I do it's ok. I'm only consuming high carbs on the weekend.
