Viking Warrior Conditioning

I had the pleasure of attending the Master RKC Kenneth Jay workshop here in Seattle put on by Andrea Chang RKC and Kristine Gil RKC of Kettlebility and Luka Hocevar RKC of Hocevar Performance. I have read his book Viking Warrior Conditioning and followed his first protocol for months. It really doesnt hold a candle to learning why this works from the man himself. Understanding how these protocols will transform you for a lifetime of fitness. You just have to do the work. Kenneth also went over new techniques on swing and snatching power, program design (priceless), massive Q&A sessions throughout the workshop, Z-health, Pull ups and various other odds and ends. We did lots of Z-health, Some swings and snatches using the new techniques to get the most out of the V02max protocols. The always brutal cadence test (16kg 34reps in the last all out minute). 15:15 for I think was around 15-20sets and the 36:36 for 10-12sets. The 36:36 is for lack of a better word...hard. I think there was 33 attendees and 7 or 8 RKC's from around the US. This was a blast!

I took Sunday off with some foam roller and Z-health action, and today I got a massage and did some Z. Starting training again tomorrow. Back is feeling about 90% even after the the workshop. HKC in 2 weeks, will be training mostly Swings, Getups, Goblet Squats, Pullups and of course some VWC.
