Where's the Kettle Bells

So I went to a different YMCA today.  It was a very interesting experience.  I was unable to find the Kettle bells.  I wanted to do some swings.  I asked the trainer where I could find them. He said they do not let the general public use them.  They are for a class or to be used if you have a trainer.  I told him I have used them with and without a trainer.  So he gave in and got me one.  It was only 30 pounds.  I was not going to complain.  I got through one set of my Intervals.  I did my second set with the Kettlebells.  When I was done he asked of he could show me proper form.  I told him I know, I have bad form and I was working on not rounding my back.  He said that was not the issue. the issue was that I should not be swinging over my head.  I guess he has never heard of over the head kettle bell swings.  He kept telling me everything I have done wrong.That most trainers, don't have the knowledge he has.   He wasted my time so I could not finish my workout.  He gave me his card and said I should work with him.  I finally told him my trainer and I must be doing somthing right.  I have lost close to 60 pounds and over 100 inches.  I think that shut him up.



I have a new toy.  I had to spend down my FSA.  I was able to buy a heart monitor.  I am looking forward to using while working out.I wanted the fancy Polar brand. It was not covered by my FSA   I also start with my new trainer Mitchell next week. I am going to work hard to drop some major pounds by July.  I will be officiating my first wedding. Yes someone asked me to marry them. More information to come.
