ETK Medium - Video

Today, an uneventful ETK ROP Medium Day

5 x (1-2-3), 24 kg mil press, 24 pullup on foot.

The plan was to start a new ladder every 10 minutes, and although there was a phone call or two interrupting, I did finish the workout in about an hour.

On the clip, I kick my hip around when pressing on the first side, my left.

I have a history here - if I get into anything other than perfect lumbar posture for my press, I pinch my herniated disc when I press on my left side. I did that once today, and this is why video is helpful - the hip kick means I'm cheating, and I need to keep confronting this issue head on. I can get it right, it's just a bit tricky, and I hope to do better next time.

NB: If you're new to kettlebell pressing, you get a pretty good view of the wrist position we're after in the RKC - straight.
