Finished the rite of passage program

Achieved my 5x5 ladders with the 24kg. Thats something like 70 clean and presses with each arm. Did this in exactly 40mins.
Was supposed to do swings afterwards but decided I would rather do some car pushing. Never done it before, but I will be doing it again. You get a serious burn in the quads and go all jelly afterwards; feels like it burns an immense amount of energy, still burning now.

My ball handling skills have increased immensely due to kettlebelling. I hypothesise that this is due to the cleans and snatches where the bell is literally dropped and recaught. Juggling and 1-hand swings with a hand switch also. It teaches hand-eye coordination. After kettlebelling last summer the most noticeable thing was my lack of any dropped balls (haha), this leads to massively increased confidence which has a direct impact on the game. IMO this is the most useful attribute of kettlebells for rugby players.
