Snatch-tastic Saturday

Today's training session was as follows:-

Warm Up
Kettlebell Turkish Get Up
10kg, 12kg, 16kg, 20kg, 24kg, 28kg * 1 rep each arm
32kg * 1 rep each arm * 5 sets

Kettlebell Snatch Volume
20kg Kettlebell
10 reps each arm/rest 60 seconds * 10 rounds

This worked out as 1 minute work snatching (10 reps each arm) with 60 seconds recovery.

Kettlebell Strength Snatch
24kg * 10 reps each arm * 2 sets
Had intended to do more but tore a callus on the second set of snatches so aborted.

Kettlebell Single Arm Swing
20kg * 80 reps (40 each arm)
Left it there as hand too sore to continue.

Nice little session tonight, will snatch again in a few days once the pulled callus has healed.

Raw Fennel Fragrant Salad

I knocked up a lovely little fragrant salad to accompany some fantastic locally produced beef sausages earlier. Here's the recipe:

1 fennel bulb, raw, thinly sliced
Handful of spinach leaves, roughly chopped
1/6 head raw red cabbage, thinly sliced.
1 raw carrot, thinly sliced lengthwise.
1 large red chilli, seeds removed, thinly sliced.
1 large glug olive oil
Pinch Himalayan rock salt
Juice of half a lemon

Mix all ingredients together and allow the flavours to infuse for 20 mins.

Serve and enjoy.
