Perhaps it is because of over usage of kettlebells! I've had sets of 15's, 25's and 25's now for roughly 10 years. And I've found that I do not need anymore than that. Those things are satanic. They are evil. But I attribute Turkish Get Up's with my 15's and 25's to a total rehab of a destroyed rotators cuff.
Anyone would do well to get down with the kb's.

I had a buddy convince me to try INSANITY. And if it wasn't by the same bunch that put out P90X, I wouldn't have given it a second chance; but buddy... That is one HELLUVA workout.
I just finished up the first 30 days of INSANITY, and it is fitting of the name. I even mixed the last two weeks up with a P90X style workout. I did INSANITY at 0630, and at lunch I did another workout. Wow....
If anyone wants a workout at home workout that is worthy of any high end MMA gym, INSANITY is it. Excellent workout.

Day 2 of Crossfit... Totally humbling workout, makes you realize just how much coordination most people lack throughout the entire body and especially core.
400 Meter Warm up run
AMRAP in 20 mins of:
10 Sumo Deadlift High pulls (#75/55)
10 Hang Power Snatch
10 KTE
I had a miserable time getting the Hang Power Snatch done correctly, it was frustrating as all hell, but still broke an amazing sweat and feel great.. Will be back @ it tomorrow at 7:30am

I think that I'm sad to say... I have a few pairs of camo MMA shorts... Hey, when this stuff shows up at your casa, you don't kick that gift horse in the mouth. Now, as to why I wear them often, I offer no excuses...

I have an "adjustable" KB, which is basically a KB handle that allows you to attach standard sized DB plates. I generally leave it at 35lbs which makes for a great warmup device doing swings, torso twists and the like. A bit light for strength work but very good for conditioning.
As for workouts, I still don't have a house to set up my rack but I'm doing pre-hab right now in prep for a run at Wendler's 5/3/1 program. I've had about enough with DBs, KBs and bodyweight. Snowboard season is about done and its time to squat, dead and bench again.
