Notes - Kevin was sick this morning so we had to postpone a training session.  He suggested KB aerobics, so I just decided to go with a 32kg session and see what that was like.  How cool to be able to flip the 32kg around for 30 minutes.  That is a decent load moved overall for sure.  I want with swings, cleans, and push presses, for doubles, for each set.  Decided on the push press as I have been practicing it lately and knew that would get me a decent number of overhead lifts without the grind of pressing the bells each time, and keeping this to more of a ballastic workout.  As a result decided to leave out squats as well, just swings, cleans, and push press.  I really enjoy these KB aerobics sessions, you can mix and match and it's excellent.  I also have to say I have really enjoyed all the single bell work the last 6 months.  I would say now I prefer single bell work over doubles in pretty much every movement except front squats, which I do not love with a single bell but are great with two.  I definitely prefer the seesaw over double presses, my body responds much better, does not respond well to double presses for some reason. Now double snatches on the other hand..... well I would have to actually practice those to know!  In due course.
