Art of Strength 20kg Kettlebell workout.

in Workout Logs

This evenings workout was the Art of Strength Providence using a 20kg kettlebell. I’ve done this one before with a 20kg kettlebell and remember it as being easier the last time. I’ve been using a 16kg kettlebell exclusively for a couple of years now and I’m guessing that my central nervous system has adapted to the use of the 16kg kettlebell.
