    I am a little late but would like to participate please :-)

    Never too late to join. Workouts look good. You've done that circuit with those weights before? Good luck!

    Bummer alert!

    I'm going to have to put my KB challenge on hold, as I nurse really crappy shoulder pain (right underneath my collarbone).

    I'm going to try to keep up and maintain my fitness by walking a whole lot more. I'm also open to any suggestions for fitness maintenance, as I chill out with upper body exercises for the time being.

    So I never made it back here to post what my goals were going to be for the month. Work has been extremely busy and I am trying to not spend as much time online to free up more time for working out.

    After reading all the other posts, I also purchased the 21 Day Challenge. However, I am not following the plan exactly. I am doing the Intermediate and Advanced Workouts simultaneously as well as doing more than 1 days challenge at a time. So far this is what I've done:

    Session I - (1190 KB Swings - 550 DHS/25lbs and 640 SHS/15lbs)

    Day 1 - Intermediate Workout 25lb KB 250 Swings, Advanced Workout 15lb KB 250 Swings (500 Swings Total)
    Day 2 - Intermediate Workout 25lb KB 150 Swings, Advanced Workout 15lb KB 180 Swings (330 Swings Total)
    Day 3 - Intermediate Workout 25lb KB 150 Swings, Advanced Workout 15lb KB 210 Swings (360 Swings Total)

    Session II - (900 KB Swings - 450 DHS/25lbs and 450 SHS/15lbs)

    Day 4 - Intermediate Workout 25lb KB 450 Swings, Advanced Workout 15lb KB 450 Swings (900 Swings Total)

    Session III - (1755 Swings - 855 DHS/25lbs and 900 SHS/15lbs)

    Day 5 - Intermediate Workout 25lb KB 150 Swings, Advanced Workout 15lb KB 150 Swings (300 Swings Total)
    Day 6 - Intermediate Workout 25lb KB 180 Swings, Advanced Workout 15lb KB 150 Swings (330 Swings Total)
    Day 7 - Intermediate Workout 25lb KB 150 Swings, Advanced Workout 15lb KB 150 Swings (300 Swings Total)
    Day 8 - Intermediate Workout 25lb KB 375 Swings, Advanced Workout 15lb KB 450 Swings (825 Swings Total)
    Warm Up and Cool Down before and after Days 5, 6, 7, and 8 workouts were Squats/25 lb KB for a total of 750/25lb Squats for the day.

    I think I could do the SHS with my 20lb KB, but I started the challenge with the 15lb for SHS so I will finish it that way.

    I plan to complete the 21 Day Challenge Intermediate & Advanced before the end of the month as well as have a minimum of 7000 Swings for the month. I've had 5000+ in a month before, but would like to work my way up to 10,000. So 7,000 for June and perhaps 10,000 in July. :)

    Everyone is doing a great job and thanks to whoever posted the info on the 21 Day Challenge.

    That was me! I'm glad that you are able to make use of it. I am sticking to the beginner level... it is definitely my speed at this point! I just completed day 15 today. :flowerforyou:

    Thanks so much for sharing the info Amanda. You are doing a great job and are just about 3/4 of the way through the challenge. You will be amazed at how quickly your strength and stamina improve from using KB's. They are by far my favorite workout. The fact that beginner, intermediate, and advanced options are included in the program make it a great one, as you will be able to use it over and over again as you progress. :)
