From kenneth jay's blog

3rd session, 2nd week, 2nd strength cycle
Today I did:Warm up:KB swings; 32kg/30 reps
TGU; 24kg/5+5 reps\
Main lifts:Sumo Dl; 150kg/4 reps x 4 sets, 205kg/1 rep, 190kg/1 rep
Military Press; 90kg/2 reps x 2 sets
Pull ups; bw+60kg/2 reps x 2 sets
Bench press; 115kg/4 reps x 4 sets

Auxilliary exercises:Kettlebell snatch; 48kg/25 left+24 right (one hand switch, hard style)I am OK with that.
It wasn´t the grip that was failing at all, but generating enough hip drive to accelerate the bell.- this was pretty much all out effort. In about two weeks when I come back from vacation I will train for 37+37 snatches with the beast. I think it would be pretty cool to be able to do the RKC requirement with the beast. A time estimate for how long it will take me is about 1 month of dedicated work. I LOVE KB snatches. I will probably do a video of my attempt and post it. My blog needs some more videos.

Rif's note:

that is 25 and 24 snatches with the BEAST people. with no specific training for it. Oh, how did he accomplish that without GS training?
Well done Kenneth and looking forwards to the video of you doing your RKC snatch cert requirements with the Beast.
