Kettlebells for Autism

[Catrin]

So... how do you like port, and more importantly, can you lift your arms today?

I LIKE PORT, much better than Sherry. I hadn't expected it to be so different, but it really is! Also glad to see that it is possible to find good port for a decent price.

I can lift my arms just fine this morning My right bicep and trap are complaining a little, and my back twinges a bit when I bend in a certain direction. Considering what I asked of my body yesterday I think that is reasonable - I didn't think I would escape without SOMETHING :-) I normally go hiking or go to my gym to hit the rowing machine on Sundays after our comp training on Saturday - but today is a rest day! Indeed I turned off all my alarms (I usually have 3 set), and slept as late as I could. Even without an alarm I rarely sleep after 6:30, but dragged myself out of bed at 8:15 - so later church service for me today!

Here is a brief video taken during the last 40 seconds. I am the one in the purple t-shirt. At this point we had been lifting for 59 minutes and 40 seconds. The blonde on the end wasn't there for the event, but we persuaded her to jump in for the last 10 minutes with us

There is a story behind the purple t-shirt. It is from the "KB Fun Club" in Norway, and on the back is an outline from behind of a man and a woman in the top position of the kettlebell snatch. I liked it so much that, yes, I ordered it from Norway - and I am still surprised that a local kettlebell club in Norway would have lettering in English :-) It is just a little more snug than I might like, but it is very comfortable, great color, and hasn't shrunk. I've also paid more shipping to get something from California!
