1 - I'm drenched.
Never have I been one to sweat profusely. Now even my knees are dripping sweat (who knew there was a nice collection of sweat glands right below the knee cap?). Love it! I don't glow, I glisten and glimmer. Sounds girly, but really, I'm soaking.
2 - I feel limber, flexible and very balanced.
How is that possible after swinging and pressing and snatching and a set of get-ups? I think it is because the entire body is working as a whole, like dancing.
3 - I feel worked but never "shredded" or sore and stiff.
Because of the intelligence behind the form, and the idea of practicing the movements before working out, the body is well prepared for the workload. I have yet (knock wood) to suffer any injury from kettlebell training.
4 - I feel empowered!!!
Not "roidishly" pumped. No. I actually appear quite subdued, but inside I feel so strong, the kind of strong that comes from a very deep well of purposeful practice, the reward of noticeable improved strength (like snatching the 16k !!!) and ... joy. Yes, joy. What ever we are passionate about creates energy, and is expressed in joy.
