What's that saying... "So long and thanks for all the fish!" :) Thanks for your and Grant's time and energy setting up this platform and providing the information and inspiration you have. Onward!

Awesome! Great job!

Awesome! I’m favor consistency where possible so go for the Rogue, but maybe give the bell a shiny coat of gold spray paint to mark the occasion!

Happy New Year everyone! Quick update… covid, laziness, and a broken toe. What a way to end the year and start a new one. My “bug” from Thanksgiving was Covid. I had the “flu-like” and “tastes/smells like cigarette smoke” symptoms. Overall, not too bad. This caused me to lose momentum though. In December I only performed a few sets of swings with my moderate kb, largely due to laziness. At the time I was thinking that (other than “today”) the new year is the best time to get started again… and then on the 30th I slid on the stairs at home and broke a toe! Based on experience with a different broken toe earlier in 2023, I plan to hold off kettlebells for two weeks or so, then start working on lighter weight swings and goblet squats and go from there. Getups will likely need to wait longer due to the extra pressure on the toes when standing from the lunge position. While it’s frustrating, I’m not disheartened. It’s a long road and I want to be smart about it.

Thanks @Joe Zaga! You’re right, this is a good opportunity to spend time on other movements. My upper body definitely needs work, so I’ll work in the press and think of a few other movements. Pull-ups are a hard “no”, although that probably means it’s what I should be working on. 😂

The basic 16/8 for me, but occasionally find myself closer to 20/4. I’ve done a few OMADs unintentionally and felt great.
