A Kettlebell Named Bertha.

Warm-up

CAWU x 1 [Didn't include row]

Warmed-up with some light, 2-position Muscle Snatches. A few sets with the bar, then added 20-lbs for a couple more sets.

Strength

Mid-hang Muscle Snatch [60%]  89 x 3 x 3

2-position Clean + 2 Jerks [60%]  115 x 4 sets

Met-Con

5-8-10 for time:

KB Snatch [each arm]  45

KB Swing  100

Finished in 5:24.

Felt great during most of the workout. Hook-grip sucks ass on the thumbs, but DAMN, you get a great, secure pull on your lifts. Harden up and get ‘er done.

During my met-con, switched from 100-lbs KB to 83-pounder, after the 3rd rep in the second set. Ego started the day, reality ended it. Bertha ain’t no joke.
