What I've been up to (2 KB long cycle)

This is one of the most feared movements in all of kettlebelldom:

It should be noted that there are two styles of KB-ing: Hard and soft styles. Soft style is for competition, and includes techniques to let you keep lifting for the solid ten minutes; hard style is for those not competing in GS, but want the benefits for other endeavors. Hard style has also been evaluated as being safer. I use hard style.
My favorite way of training with KB's is density style:

I do this with 50# kb's now, and have achieved 110reps in 20 minutes.
My best with a pair of 65's is either 48 or 51 If I remember correctly.
I do the 2kb Long cycle M/W/F and a few sets of 1-hand presses and pullups on Tues and THur. After a few weeks I will switch to another program to rest some systems while giving others some attention.
I just posted this in case anyone was curious what I'm talking about.
