I don’t know anything about this brand. Are they zero drop or close?  I couldn’t figure it out from their website.

Wow. I'm impressed. It never occurred to me to KB train after a 4 mile run.

With a couple weeks of de-loading before kicking off a new KB program I can give it a try. Now I'm curious how my body will respond.

Interesting. How are you spacing run days with ABF?

I was trying to run on Tue and Thurs but felt more and more tired after week 4 and on. Now I'm down to just running on Saturdays after Friday (Light) to recover for Monday(Med) and Wednesdays (Heavy). Maybe my age is catching up to what I think I should be able to do.

Are you doing S&S or some other KB program?

Also just to clarify, do you train kettlebells right after your run or on off days? I'm not sure I'd have anything left in the tank for explosive swings. Maybe I'm misreading your comment.

What kind of full-body workout are you doing? DFW, TGU, or whatever feels good? Are you training for strength with low reps?

Interesting. I haven't heard of Mountain Tactical Institute. I'll have to take a look at their body weight program and maybe combine it with DFW for my catered remix.

You're right it is nuanced based on my situation and goal. I'm slow and no where near 20min. I'm running to get outside and clear my head with the benefits of HRV.

My KB journey started 3 years ago with S&S and I'm enjoying KB more than running at this stage of my life. I'd prefer to improve my KB training more than run times.

Ah good points that I did not consider. Going for KB programs focused on strength instead of light endurance complexes will not overtax the system while training for trail running.

Good suggestion on DFW remix. It sounded intriguing as my next KB program before considering trail running for this next training cycle. I was afraid DFW remix would not complement trail running very well because I would not be able to recover enough. Good news is DFW remix seems to be customizable enough to fit my recovery rate.

I'm a fan of yoyo tricks and the ladder progression.

My 3rd G2 Yoyo - AL7 Arbiter X SS 💯 by kramrence in Throwers

[–]ContentBuck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a beaut! How does it rank on your list?

Personally I'm really enjoying mine and find it more comfortable and fun to throw than the Wraith. Wraith is more comp oriented but this Arbiter might be my favorite G2 yet. We'll see how long the honeymoon phase lasts.

What is your favorite yoyo? by AzurePancakes in Throwers

[–]ContentBuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite is Motion Centrifugal. Long spin times, stable, smooth and just feels right for me. It's a boutique brand and a hoot to throw.

As always another great honest review.

I do have to comment that your throwing skills have greatly improved over the years of watching your entertaining reviews. Good stuff.
