Bodybuilding
OK I just went to a bodybuilding site to check out what's new. I used to want to compete naturally but man did I lack the commitment. Really not complaining at all here, in fact the opposite. HST, BFT, HIT, GVT, on and on and on each claiming to be the end all-be all. I got that familiar overwhelmed feeling and I don't even want to work out like that any more. LOL
I ain't knocking bodybuilders though If I ever ran into a genie I would ask to be built like Mike Mentzer, with the functional skill of Rickson Gracie.

But that ain't going to happen, AND ya' know what, kettlebell training , especially the RKC way, is so much easier on the head. No grinds over 5 reps, ballistics for as many reps as you want, and do most of your workouts in a medium to medium hard fashion, push hard as a test every now and then.
Hell of a lot of variety in there, hell of a lot of functional strength, and a lot of energy left over for other stuff like MA, sports, or just raising 5 kids.
This kind of training is so much better for me mentally, physically and practically.
When you are ready the teacher will appear.

so true royce so true. kbs the rkc way is so much simpler, but NOT easy, eh?
everytime I do some "isolated" exercise, even just playing aorund I am reminded of how well integrated the kb works my muscles. feels so weird to try to isolate anything anymore.
good stuff and keep up the good work.
momentum is everything.
Not easy at all. I had to lay down last night after my swings to keep from being uncontrollably nuasteated.
