The Finns have done it again, challenged every and any kettlebell lifters out there, male or female!
All of you Danes who lift kettlebells, put your money where your mouth is!!
I’ll be hosting the event at Aalborg sportshøjskole on Sunday the 29th of March, between 15:00 and 18:00.
Contact me for details: thierry@kettlebell-fitness.dk
For those people interested but who cannot attend the location, they can participate virtually and send a video, I’ll post the results on the Finns site.
Here are the available lifts and general rules:
Check out the lifts available! You won’t believe your eyes!
Classic GS lifts:
2 KB jerk
2 KB lonc cycle (LC)
1 KB jerk
1 KB LC
snatch
For these, the standard GS rules apply:
- 10 minutes time limit
- one hand switch in one armed lifts
- when the bell is set down, the lift is over
Special lifts:
Overhead anyhow (1 KB)
Overhead anyhow mini (1 KB)
These 2 lifts have the following exceptions to the standard GS rules:
Overhead anyhow is lifting the bell overhead from the rack position. 10 minutes, multiple hand switches, put the bell down if desired. Clean before a new lift always. You can use bent press, push press, military press, jerk or something else. The rule is just to get a good lockout. This is for newcomers especially!
Overhead anyhow mini is the same as above but 5 minutes. Come on, even my grandmother can do this, and she’s dead!
A lifter can choose any combination of these lifts, and bell weight can be different in each lift.
The bells sizes available will be: 8, 12, 16, 24 and 32 kg. Or you can bring your own.
Come and meet us in Aalborg and have fun!
There will be both girls and guys from the school lifting on that day. Some of them new beginners!
