Another 600 kettlebell swings down today. I have to admit I’m tempted to do another 300 swings tonight to hit SEVEN THOUSAND!! This is definitely one of those things that once you get started you want more-more-more! I was thinking about how I’m getting through this high volume by mixing it up! I line up …
I’ve lost half my bodyweight so for the rest of my life I will eat a very health-supporting diet to maintain it. Thanks to the BodyBugg, I know that my basic daily metabolism rate is only around 1450 to 1500 calories a day if I don’t do a workout. That would be a day of …
I am really amazed! I am down FOUR POUNDS for week two of the 10K Kettlebell Swings Challenge! As I wrote last week, I did not start the Challenge with the intention of losing weight. I have not changed anything I do regularly except high volume kettlebell swings EVERY DAY!!! I’m actually surprised that I …
I took the BodyBugg off today, sometimes I start feeling it and it bothers me! So I don’t know what my calorie burn is today but it will be a low burn day. I spent all day writing. I wrote all of TWO PAGES. My writer friend Jen commiserates. You work and work and sometimes you …
I was doing weights today and working rounds of kettlebell swings into my workout. I like to keep my heart rate up while lifting. I have cut back on the lower body weights exercises to avoid overtraining while doing the 10K Kettlebell Swings Challenge. I was thinking of the many benefits of the kettlebell swing! …
We had a near-blizzard in Chicago today. Most of the day the view from my windows here in the Steel Tower was Chicago’s famous horizontal snow. I did not go out of course but I did not do any treadmill walking or stair climbing. I got all absorbed in working again; I edited a three-chapter …
In my last post I wrote about kettlebell scams and shams. Here are the true leaders in the world of kettlebell training and certification! Kettlebells originated in Russia as much as 350 years ago. Truly they are no flash in the pan fad!! Kettlebell lifting was declared the national sport in the Soviet Union in …
Today will be a good high calorie burn day! Ended yesterday at 2244 and that included a weights workout! With 12000+ steps and 600 kettlebell swings today I am less than 100 calories away from yesterday’s total. Looking good! January 11 and I’m already half way to 10000 kettlebell swings! I can’t believe I’m this …
My total calorie burn for yesterday, calculated midnight to midnight, was 1766. I knew it would be a Low Burn Day as I did not make it out for a walk and I sat in a chair writing for HOURS. Today is destined to be a High Burn for sure! Did my usual weights workout …
First weekday with BodyBugg. It’s going to be a low burn day. A quarter till 10pm and I’m just over 1600 calories for the day. I had wanted to get out for a walk but I get busy with my book and the hours fly by! I got my sleep all screwed up by staying …
