I didn't consider particles on the bell and will check it out when I get home tonight. <BR/><BR/>I really like your idea of closing one's eyes to focus on breathing and internal dialog .. next KB workout I will do this for a few sets. Also I do have a video camera and will get out the tripod this weekend to capture my swing form. <BR/><BR/>Last night I went back to your blog to carefully study your 32kg double snatch video especially the swings and high pulls .. extremely instructive and I love the Santana!Franklinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12125367865221040103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-807004449292874959.post-42998494715319032122008-03-11T08:13:00.000-07:002008-03-11T08:13:00.000-07:00Be careful and make sure no glass particles are on...Be careful and make sure no glass particles are on the bell. I've heard horror story where this person kept her kettlebell at a restaurant kitchen, and someone broke a glass near by. She snatched the bell and bleed her forearm.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, if you have a video camera, use that to check the form. Breathing and things you do in your mind is important than watching mirror. To extent it does not scare you, close your eyes doing swings and presses. You'll sense things differently.Taikei Matsushitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07197272494899916208noreply@blogger.com
