Has anyone tried the 10,000 swing kettlebell challenge?
https://www.t-nation.com/workouts/10000-swing-kettlebell-workout
10,000 swings over 20 workouts - 500 per workout.
Thinking about doing it for a few weeks while I wait for my new bar and weights to arrive.
I did it. I used the 30/30 format instead 2x a day.
It's tough, mentally and physically, but definitely more mentally. I've done squat every day for a month and preferred that to this, but a lot of that came from the morning swings. Getting up every morning and doing interval sprint equivalents takes a lot from you mentally.
What happened? Turned my glutes back online, strengthened them, smoothed out my hip hinge and showed me where to work on stretching. Also saw a decent 4 pack for all of the last two days from the weight lost.
Can't not recommend it as effective.
I did it - pulled something in my lower back and hamstrings - terribly sore still after two days off. Must've been swinging too much weight, form must've been off but just swinging over and over an over it is mind numbing.
Would not recommend

How much weight did you use? How long have you been using kettlebells? How much do you weigh?

35 lb bell , used them before here and there never 500 swings in a day, weigh 220, down from 270 - all pros for 3 months then ICF - looking to torch fat, got an injury instead.
Would not recommend.

this is crossfit in disguise
I'm interested in getting into kettlebell training but don't really know where to start. Is there an equivalent to SS for kettlebells, or just browse around and get a gestalt of what it's all about and figure it out on my own?

Tsatsouline is to kettlebells what Rippetoe is to barbells. Also some people treat this shit like the coldwar

Any of you faggots tried the 10,000 punches challenge yet?

What do you mean treat it like the coldwar? Do you mean to say that they are highly divisive between two mutually opposing ideologies? Or do you mean it in the sense that it was influential in the 70s and 80s but has lost prominence?

Kettlebell Simple & Sinister.
Based as fuck if you do the swings with proper form.

I'm waiting to get my 24 kg kettlebell in the mail.
I've been up to 500 swings a day with a 20-kilo 'bell, but never more than like thrice a week.
