Father Daughter Program Minimum Day

All around me co-workers and family were sick. It finally caught up with me last Friday.

As I was getting ready to do a Program Minimum (PM) this morning my older daughter caught me in the hall. She woke up 1/2 an hr early and wanted to do kettlebells with me.

Warmed up with joint mobility then

Turkish Get Ups
We did 5 full minutes of TGUs.
Dad with 24 kg and daughter with body weight.

Swings
We reviewed both end points of the swings.
Starting with neutral but precise foot alignment.
Next pushing back with the hips in the squat position.
I had her push a chair with her butt.

At the top we worked on the Hard Style Lock.
Heels+knees+Gluts+Abs +Lats
We did 4 sets of 20, with Planks in between the swing sets for "recovery".
She could get into a good plank, but I think the planks were harder for her than the swings.
So I stopped at 4 sets. I again used the 24 kg and she used a 10 Lbs kettlebell for swings.

Elizabeth is 8 years old and barely 40 pounds.
