Background:
Been introduced to the Kettlebell in 2005 by my JKD teacher.
Started 2008 with a 8+16kg and practiced unregulary. Always prefered BW.
Wanted to get more serious with KB after my lower spine surgery in 2014. (Office Job)
Bought a 20kg and trained more regulary with it. But it wasn't until early 2020 I got me a 26kg.
Bought S&S revised and short after Q+D. Practiced 3-5 times a week and did that until now.
I trained Martial Arts in the past. Mostly JKD. But I took lessons in Wing Chun, Krav Maga, Luta Livre, BBJ, Capoeira and Escrima. Took several seminars in knife defense and combatives.
I'm a long time Yoga (since 2001 Hatha and since 2013 Vinyassa) and Tai Chi (Chen Style) practicioner.
After my spine injury I quited combat sports. (Had to avoid heavy bag and ground work)

Current:
I practice Tai Chi about an hour every day, lead by traditional Qi Gong / Ba Duan Jin and Yi Jin Jing.
I run reguarly 3 x a week and go 2-3 x for a ruck. (Started in Dec. 2021) 5-8K
I do S&S and started Q&D (044) two weeks ago.
Fit in a Yoga session every now and than. Nowadays mostly some freestyle warrior flow.
I like to go for a swim once a week.

Aims:
Not to get injured again. Stay healthy and lean.

Source of inspiration:
Pavel Tsatsoulin, Bruce Lee, Bas Rutten, Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, Zhuangzi

That looks doooooope!! I really want to do an OCR one day, but my wife keeps signing me up for marathons…
 
  • Haha
Reactions: spc
@LarryB
I even overun a wall. ;)

Can't have it all, can you? ;)
Make a deal. One season a marathon, the other season a spartan or obstacle race. See what she says about that!?
That was the deal, was supposed to do Chicago marathon last year and OCR this year. I broke my foot though and couldn’t race so i got to defer to this year, couldn’t say no.

I bought a notebook yesterday. I'm going to continue my log handwritten and more detailed in this notebook.
This public log feels alot like I'm creating content. I'm training just for myself and I'm going to keep that to myself.
I find myself lately thinking: " Oh - I have to put this and that to the log as well. Every push up is relevant..."
No one cares anyway.. ;)

I think most of us over here train for them self. I just enjoy reading it and sometimes I get inspiration too to use myself. I like reading yours too and do like it. Hope you keep posting :)
