Kettlebell Training Inspiration
January 11, 2010 by admin
Many people have written in and shared their 2010 kettlebell training goals. Thank you very much.
Many people mentioned performing some kettlebell exercise with a 32kg kettlebell, mostly pressing.
Here’s a quick video of Pamela MacElree of Kettlebell Athletics snatching a 32kg kettlebell for 10 reps on her right and 7 reps on her left. Pamela’s goal for 2010 is 20 snatches on the right and left. Do you think she’ll make it?
I do.
By the way, Pamela does what is known as a Half- Snatch or Health-Snatch by lowering the kettlebell to her shoulder. This is perfectly legit. Original Kettlebell competitions consisted of half-snatches and were later changed to the variation we see now.
Yes Pam!
I love watching women lift heavy kettlebells!
Pam,
Great job, I am confident that you will achieve your 20/20 goal. I want my high school girls to watch this video to gain some inspiration and begin to see what they could do if they set goals and work hard to reach them. For that matter I want the boy’s to watch as well. Keep up the good work and good luck with your training.
wow inspirational excellent i am sure you can achieve the twenty enjoy the effort well done and thank you very much for sharing your hard work with us.
Pam ,that was awesome!!!
You just inspired my to shoot for a bigger KB Snatch.
I thought I already commented on this maybe another blog but LOVE IT!
wow! incredible….inspirational!
Pam, great stuff I will be pulling for you in 2010, you go girl.

Great work Pamela! Now you know where you’re starting from and you’ve got a long year ahead of you to hit that goal. I’m guessing somewhere around March or April.

Wow!!! The feedback and support is great, thanks everyone.
This happened to be one of those spur of the moment trial runs, and mid-way through I decided this was something I could do a lot more with, with some extra training.
Feel free to share the video with whichever clients or athletes you feel will benefit, it’s an amazing feeling to know you can move heavy weight around with some diligent training.
Pam, you’re an ANIMAL!
Great Job Pam!
