The Kettlebell Snatch as defined by the WKC: “lifting one Kettlebell overhead from the swing action in one continuous movement.”

1) Swing action: back

2) Swing action: forward

3) Pull and punch through

4) Final fixation: legs and working arm locked out and parallel to the head

Luckily, Beth and Sam love kettlebells as much as we do. Check ‘em out doing 4 minutes of KB transfers and good ‘ol burpees.

In your classic Stanford color.

The combined weight of our Bearbells is 28 kgs. The Treebell is 32 kgs. According to Kim Martinez, “two bears don’t equal one tree…” Ouch.

… in your classic CAL colors.  Professional tools designed for kettlebell sport.

Portable mini slackline. Oh what fun…

Pull-ups, inversions, levers, you name it… Just grip ‘em tight.

Thanks to Kerri, Baby Mateo has a matching Puma tracksuit just like his dad. Only time will tell whether Mateo will love them as much as Steve does.

Check out Bear Bear and Jeff’s take-off from tonight’s training.

To get an indication of your muscle fiber type, try using a small parachute during your sprints. Whether or not the parachute opens immediately after your first few steps is a tell tale sign.

JT’s training regimen circa 1984: dance, weights, and pull-ups. Perfect!
