Not into Podcasts but I get his emails and have followed some of his programmes. Just tried the humane burpee!

Plenty around north London where I live.

That's great - would love to go to a Dan John session!

Amazing thanks for posting. I'm always surprised how few courses StrongFirst seem to do here and none ever in London.

That's good! I ran the Giant for a while as well as Kettlebell Strong! From Geoff Neupert. They do work but I found them a bit boring with just one move.....

I like to do a programme wtih all the...

Ah shame, sounded like a really good opportunity. Maybe go to the instructor privately for a few sessions?

Nice, Wolverson are quality, I really like the ones I have. I have the hollow competition bells.

Nice, that sounds great! Good to dial in the form for those lifts.

I have been focusing on double kettlebell work, which is challenging.

I haven't used these guys but seems like great value, ...

Impressive improvements! You could probably run the program again but I'd do part 2 as the waving of the load and reps is more clever, I did it several times before I stopped progressing.

I never fancied trying the 10k swing challenge. I am enjoying double kettlebell swings though, can use a lot of weight that way.

Yup that swing thing sounded brutal! Thanks.

Looks tough!

I'm doing this programme as the opening sentence describes me perfectly. Will be interesting to see if it works. Still doing swings and get ups.

Great, you'll definitely see the results by the end and be able to reprogram accordingly.

Not kettlebells but I've found a great exercise for the core - the L sit, look it up. Can only do 15...

Oh yes, and making sure you come up straight despite the unequal weights. I refuse to buy two of the same weight - just ordered a 36kg to bridge the gap between the 32kg and the 40kg.

Great. Yes unequal doubles are supposed to be more challenging for the core and more like real life movements as you're rarely balanced. I like heavy one handed swings for the same reason and have...

Sounds good.

Used double kettlebells (unequal) for squats, different sized kettlebells for press and then pullups with different kettlebells on a chain for back.

Yup, that's the one, I used that. Good luck! What exercises are you doing?

As Pavel says, goblet squat is the squat for the people and certainly the squat for people who don't like squats. You could try lunges but squats are important!

Nice! Goblet squats or offset single kettlebell squats?

Ah well definitely no harm in starting with part 1, I made really good progress with that too. Looking forward to finding out how you get on.

Simple Strength for Difficult Times is fantastic, I achieved real progress with it. I recommend starting straight away with Part 2 as it has more clever programming, with waved loads etc. You get the...

Impressive after yoga too!

I'm doing double kettlebell work, just started the Kettlebell Strong! programme, will stick with it to see what effect it has. Trying not to over do it otherwise as...

Impressive, well done!

definitely still doing kettlebell training, no temptation to go back to the gym! Just finishing a cycle of this:

Impressive! It definitely takes weight to move weight, or at least I always found it easier to deadlift heavy if I ate more.

Still using kettlebells here, test week next week, hoping to be able to...
