I just realised that I am quite close to levelling up. However, for the moment, I would prefer to stay on level 6, which I have gotten used to. I am just not ready yet! So please, until I say otherwise, stop hitting that like button. Thank you everyone!

How many *PUSH UP* can the entire dojo collectively complete within the span of 30 days? We're benching the kettlebell this month… to capitalize on the Push Up gains for the kettlebell's return in October! Here's how it works: - For the next 30 days, strive to complete as many *PUSH UP* as possible. - This is a group kumite, so every participant's reps are tallied together. - If you want to keep a diary, record a video of yourself doing the work. - Share your results in a comment below this post. - You have 30 days to contribute your reps to the dojo's total. Note: Any type of Push Up is allowed! Knee Push Up, Decline, On Bench, One-Arm…

Short and simple (and sweaty): 10 Minutes unbroken 20 kg 100 Snatches / 30 Goblet squats Have a great weekend everybody 🤸

Since I didn't have any time during the day, I did the training yesterday evening. Because of the summer temperatures, I was sweating within minutes. So completing the workout was really torture. Did all with one 12 kg bell. The finale ended with the original burpees (without pushups). 39 cleans for the kumite included.
