another work place KB demonstration

A decent nights sleep and up earlier to get back into the office groove after having taken Thu and Fri off. Weight:176 3/4 lbs .. less than a pound from my 80kg BW goal.

The intent today was to do a high volume snatch workout but instead I opted to so some demonstration at work. One of my co-workers plays cricket in an adult intramural league and wants to get in better shape and asked about KBs. Another one of my co-workers, who I got into KB training back in Oct (now both his kids are into it), brought in his new Muscledriver 2 pood .. I brought my Muscledriver 1 pood and my Lifeline 2 pood.

(Muscledriver has recently lowered its prices to be competitive with Lifeline and Performbetter .. their bells are definitely higher quality than the later two and I would have bought them instead if the discount was available at the time I bought from the other vendors. Also, just to fess up here, although I love the dragondoor books and DVD products, I have yet to purchase one of their KBs. )

During our lunch break, I demonstrated swings/TGUs and assisting the new guy with them (who did very well for 1st time exposure). I then provided the more experienced guy with improvements to his swing technique as he recently started swinging his 2 pood. After working with each of them, they both asked to see some of my more recent progress. I obliged:

32kg 2 x 1 bent press on right
32kg 2 x 5 snatch on right
32kg 1 x 1 snatch on left
32kg 1 x 3/3 jerks
32kg 1 x 10/10 1-hand swing
2x32kg 2 x 10 double swings
2x32kg 1 x 5 double clean

I seem to perform well in front of an audience as this went smoothly. The 2nd bent press was much easier than any I had done previously, so it looks like I'm starting to get a good groove with it. Also double cleans are getting less ugly. During the rest of the day, I did Z drills to stay loose.

The new guy was so psyched from his taste of hard-core resistance training, he went on-line and purchased a 16kg and a 24kg .. here is always room available at the Party for a new victum.

When I got home from work in the evening, my body realized that my "demo" was plenty of training for the day. I was also quite satisfied that now three of my co-workers have started KB training.
