So looks like I have no takers this time around. :) I know it's supposed to be a sad face but I am not sad. Everyone has their own way for what works for them -- so I will do it solo.

Great to see everyone still plugging away. I feel so guilty that I have not been plugged in lately. I have continued to workout but my prioritizes have shifted. All the time I use to spend on this forum, I now must apply in this new and very critical journey in my life. So keep going ladies. I will continue to log my…

Have not been logging in the thread due to a crazy business week. However, I have not missed any workouts. Mon, Wed, Fri Did all scheduled lifts and regular cardio. Tues and Thu Cardio

Thanks dedication Fanncy -- and I love it! I am going to Australia and New Zealand in October. So I had the thought of taking my Kettlebell. But then I thought about how much it would count toward my total weight allowed for check in. I love how you can take it anywhere except for flying I guess. :(

Thanks for the responses ladies. We will give the August thread a try. If anyone at anytime feels like they need a smaller group to correspond with then just say so. That was what I needed as a complete newbie 6 months ago. My ultimate goal besides my goal physique is to strength train and stay accountable to this group…

Just a heads up that this is the final week - Week 16. Do you guys want to continue this thread or start a new one? I'm considering posting in the other monthly thread now. I think most of us on this thread already post there and/or visit it just as often. I don't post much but I do read it a lot. Your thoughts?

Glad you are back Kerryatoon. And kudos to you for remaining smoke free! Do what you need to do to stay that way. Very proud of you!

I don't know if my feelings will change after getting to week 5 but so far I am really loving this Kettlebell thing. Thank you for turning me on to it Fanncy. I just needed something 1) to help with my calorie deficit and 2) that I enjoy. So far, I find Kettle swings to be a fun way to burn calories. I am all for the…

Yes I am doing it on my lift days. I am doing this program but haven't yet looked at Simple & Sinister. I will check it out as well. http://www.muscleandfitness.com/workouts/workout-routines/5-week-whole-body-single-kettlebell-workout It's going to take a me a moment to figure this out. I was just looking for a way to burn…

Fanncy, it's hard to tell if I've done enough when it comes to KB swing. It is only day 2 and my arms are sore. My fitness gadget (polar FT4) showed that I only burned 131 calories doing 20x10x25. It feels a little tiring while swinging but it's over so quickly when only doing 10 reps. I'm afraid to do more than that in…

I just started using them on yesterday. I am using them as a way to burn extra calories.

Welcome back Iwhayes! Glad you enjoyed your vacation. Fanncy has also inspired me to give kettlebell swing try. I did Week 1 day 2 of the 5 week program this morning. I really like swinging the kettlebell. I bought a 15 lbs but only used it the first day. This morning, I decided to go ahead and use my 25 lbs KB and it felt…

Hello everyone. Glad to see hear you will be able begin SL again Dcresider. But be careful with that shoulder. Every since I came back from my Vegas vacation, I have not been able to really resume my deficit on a regular. Basically, I have been bulking for 2 months now and I have about 5 to 7 lbs to show for it. Now sure…
