A full day of manual labour, teamed up with one of my lads and together we put up just over 100m of a post and rail fence, around a SUDS pond. It’s been awhile since I’ve done a full day of such work, and I was grateful for sticking to the kettlebells this past year!

NTS:

On clean and jerk, stick to 36kg until technique is solid, and keep to once a week and use as a challenge exercise, so as not to interfere with S&S.
