If anyone from Hampshire is interested in going to a KB class, there is one at 1830 (as far as I remember) on Wednesday's in Southampton. Google Essential Krav Maga for details (it's before the main Southampton class).

hi steve DE is dynamic effort,ME is max effort,DE works on speed involves alot of band training and chains ME works on my one rep max strength.CAN have all power you want but without speed its nothing.

Ive been doing alot of rehab work with the kettlebells lately,ive stressed my right rotator cuff lifting telegraph poles into place for a barn,the kettlebells seem to keep my mobbility up in my shoulders,as does swinging the axe aswell

cheers Yeti, i never do max stuff.

I maybe max once a month on the three big compound lifts.Keeps joints healthier and pain free and my CNS happy.Can't beat functional strength.It's why the kettlebells are great.There ballistic and force your stabilising muscles to work.I do bench press with kettlebells using a bamboo Olympic bar,the weights bounce around and fight you fantastic movement for entire upper body strength.Back, delts, triceps, serratus, pecs, grip all get great workout from it.
