Tommy's 40 Lifts for Lent - Day 18 & 19

Day 18 was the Extreme Kettlebell Instructor course so was a a good chance to have a play with the 40's!!
2 x 6 double cleans with 2 x 40kg's
1 x 8kg front squat with 2 x 40kg's
1 x 4/4 1 arm clean and press 40kg
1 x 3 military press with 2 x 40kg
5/5 windmills with 40kg
1/1 turkish get up with 40kg

It turned out to be a pretty tough day with more than 40 lifts, but when in the mood you might as well take advantage of it.

Day 19
The second day of the EKI course and and we had another good day of training, doing a few demos and just trying different things. Got roped into doing one of the dynamic circuits with the 40's which was fun! Thanks for that guy's!

3 x front squat with 2 x 40kg
6 x stiff leg deadlift with 2 x 40kg
6 x bent over row with 2 x 40kg
3 x military press with 2 x 40 kg

Circuit with 1 40kg
5/5 clean and jerk
5/5 snatches
10 alternating swings

I also tried the 2 hand any how again, but didn't have the sucess of last weekend, I could only manage the 40kg and the 36kg on that one. Also gave the bottoms up press a go and the good news is I was almost locked out at the top, so I think it's only a matter of time before that goes up.
