In this issue we’ve got a couple of informative pieces for you. Tommy firstly takes a look at and explains a Kettlebell and Bulgarain Bag Complex plus a Kettlebell Complex. I then take a closer look and explain how this months OWLI Challenge can help the third pull on your Olympic Lifts. As well as this we have a final reminder about this weeks OLF Training Day plus plenty of info about all of our upcoming courses.
Kettlebell and Bulgarian Bag Complex
This complex is a beauty as it gets your working in the sagittal plane with the swing and gets you working in the transverse in the spin. To see it in action please visit here.
Kettlebell Complex
This is a double Kettlebell Complex. In this complex you perform : a Sumo Dead Lift; a Double Swing; and a Double Clean. Focus on explosive hips and away you go! Here’s Tommy showing you how it’s done.
Snatching Bear
This was January’s OWLI Challenge. The thing is we don’t want you just smashing yourselves with this one. It’s a technique drill aiming to get you working on your 3rd Pull, which quite frankly I’m rubbish at! To read a little more about it visit our blog.
