With the 20 kg kettlebell, I performed some warm-ups, beginning with Thrusters, 3 x 10 and did Goblet Squats with both 20 and 24 kg bells, 10/10/10.

With a bead of sweat, I was ready to get into the Swings, using the 24 kg kettlebell. 6 sets, 20 swings each, both one handed and two handed with a minute rest between sets. That went well and kicked my arse, but I still had a little left to play some more.

I just bought a pair of 10 kg bumper plates and wanted to bounce them around a little. I performed Hang Squat Cleans + Presses x 3. They bounced fine!

90/90/110/120/120.
