Hiked the stairs again with the 35 lb kettlebell. Managed to get from my place all the way to the first bench at the peak of the stairs at a good pace without stopping. At the top of the stairs I started the first of 5/6 sets I planned to do on the way down. Starting from the top and stopping every 2-3 minutes I did the following:
35 2-hand swings x 2 sets
15 snatches each arm x 2 sets
Goblet squats 1 set of 25
I also stopped near the base to test my pullups. I did 5 pullups from a dead hang. 1 more than a few days ago and at the end of a pretty good workout to boot. I think I will be able to do 10 pullups soon! I am going to try and learn the pullup kip that they do in Crossfit. It looks like it will give you a bunch more reps but the technique looks tricky! Regardless, very happy to be able to do 5 good pullups when I couldnt hand from the bar for more than 5 seconds without pain for the past 20 years!
