I have received the latest copy of the instructors manual. I just finished reading the parts that are newer or have been unclear to me so I will pass them on to you. First, the Max VO2 is to be completed with the 16kg bell for the men. Very strong men can/could us the 20kg but the 24kg bell is reserved for mutants. Ladies use the 12kg bell. 18kg bell if your under 110 pounds. Women may use the 16 kg bell but they need to be serious mutants. The max VO2 is performed 15:15 (15 seconds of work:15 seconds of rest). 40 work sets is the goal. The beast challenge for women is done with the 24kg bell. No exceptions. The rest of the stuff we are up to speed and current.
I want to thank everyone for taking in the newer folk. Their pain is our pain. We remember the first time the bell took a bite from us. They are progressing just fine but please share YOUR stories with them about how you overcame your own hurdles. We are a group of very well conditioned folk. I know it doesn't seem like it but we really are top shelf. The last time we did the max VO2 we went the distance...and then some.
There will be some days in June that class will be an open for general play. Class is still held but the "dice" may be used or a game of "round robin" might be employed. If you have never been to an open class don't sweat it. Nothing changes. It is just like any other Friday or Saturday in spirit. Fast and loose!!! Take a beating and go home with a smile.
