Never got to do any swings with the Behemoth yesterday so I did it this morning instead… I started with sanding down the paint on the handle, all the way to the bare metal (on the inside of the handle where I actually grab the bell). When I got the handle of the bells sanded down good I chalked up my hands and went at it…

The session looked like this
• Swings (60 kg), 1o two hands
• Swings (60 kg), 5 x 5 left hand/5right hand/5 two hands
• Clean (60 kg), 1/1, 5/5, 4/4, 3/3, 2/2, 1/1

Afternoon session was 2 hours of boxing with Besam, had a great time, awesome training and coaching!

All over a good day with sun, good friends, cast iron and leather in my face
