		<title>Success with Press</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Several weeks ago I purchased an oddball sized kettlebell, a 14kg.  I have really been kind of a sucker for these in-between sizes.  I bought a  couple of 6kg bells for the studio,  a couple 10kgs, and now the 14kg.  It has been nice to have them to train with, when the jump between standard [...]]]></description>

		<title>Which Kettlebell for Me at RKC?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve had quite a dilemma for the past several months.  I have been preparing for the Russian Kettlebell Challenge Instructor certification for almost a year and making good progress.  At a body weight of approximately 135 pounds, I would be required to use the 16kg kettlebell for the snatch test.  (To use the 12kg bell, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Kettlebell Training: Week 11/12 ETK</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My kettlebell training is nearing the end of another phase. I have one more workout left in the Enter the Kettlebell program.  This is my second time through ETK, and once again I have seen significant improvement in my kettlebell pressing ability.  I&#8217;m now able to quite confidently press the 12kg kettlebell.
I estimate that by [...]]]></description>

		<title>Short Update on my Training</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The training goes on:  moving the kettlebell, hardstyle.  Mostly swinging, cleaning and pressing the bell.  Lots and lots of times. I&#8217;m ready to tackle Enter the Kettlebell, week 10, heavy day tomorrow.  I&#8217;m thinking the 5 x 5 ladders won&#8217;t be as tough for me this week.  I&#8217;m envisioning success.
Starting to think about what will [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy To Be Hardstyle Kettlebell Certified &#8211; Part II</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After a lot of thought I have decided not to write this post.  At least, not to write it the way I had planned.  My idea was to write a post detailing the things that were difficult, or to be honest, nearly defeating, for me at the Hardstyle Kettlebell Certification event.  But I&#8217;ve decided that [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy to Be Hardstyle Kettlebell Certified &#8211; Part I</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I got the shirt!  Actually, I got two.  One says &#8220;HKC&#8221; and the other says &#8220;HKC Instructor&#8221;.  After going through it, I would have been happy to have had just the first, but having the second as well is sweet.
To say I learned a lot in that one day would be a huge understatement. It [...]]]></description>

		<title>Thinking about HKC</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I first read about it back in May.  About 10 minutes after that, I registered.  For me, this is a no-brainer.  It should be exciting, rewarding, career-advancing and fun.  It&#8217;s the HKC, the Hardstyle Kettlebell Certification.  And it&#8217;s happening on Saturday.
Rather than being excited right now, my tendency is to be concerned about what is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Is Time An Excuse?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lack of time is probably the number one excuse people have for not getting their workouts done.  With the busy schedules that most people have, that is understandable.  Especially if they are considering workouts that last 45 minutes, an hour or longer.
Interval training is most definitely the answer to this problem, since you can easily [...]]]></description>

		<title>Kettlebell Training &#8211; ETK Week 11 of 12 + Future</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The end of my current round of Enter the Kettlebell is in sight.  I finished Week 11 out of 12 yesterday.  At this point I have mixed emotions about being (almost) done.
On one hand, I&#8217;m pretty excited to be nearly done.  Completing the program with anything larger than a kettlenetics-style toy kettlebell is something to [...]]]></description>
