Kettlebells, Functional Movement Screen, Goals and my knee

Well, I am getting an insert for my shoe and doing a little PT for my knee. Mark Snow, who is in my morning class is going to be helping me out. Mark is a fan of kettlebells and the Functional Movement Screen, so I just might learn something in the process.

Thanksgiving goals: I got my 16kg pullup and double vertical phonebook tear, so I feel pretty good about that. However, I didn't make my 40kg Bottom up press and doubt I'll get it in the next two days. I burned the candle at both ends for that one and did a little too much. I did learn lesson on that one and gain experience. The neurological demand of the bottom up press doesn't mesh well with a high volume approach for me.
