Marty Farrell, MS: Skill/ Programming Seminar

Marty Farrell, 1st American Master of Sport in both Events: Biathlon and Longcycle, 4x National Champ, and 2x International Champ.

"Skill comes with practice and more quickly with someone knowledgeable looking over your shoulder. In the past 7 or so years I've continued to improve upon things I thought I had learned but did not.
...
Programming can be more complicated and different depending on the level of the athlete. With many types of programming, results come in the beginning. But after a certain point, you hit a wall.

IF you want to improve your results and train intelligently instead of guessing, consider coming to the seminar. The programming happens during and after the seminar. Let me do the guessing. This is for kettlebell sport AND cross training."

Punch Austin Kettlebell Team Highlight Reel

Im so proud of the Punch Kettlebell Austin Kettlebell team. For our first competition everyone did extremely well. Of course there is tons of technique and strategy for us to work on but I feel good about the teams performance. Much Respect to all of my lifters. You guys trained your butts off and traveled a far way. I'm really looking forward to taking a big step forward with ya'll! Strong Body, Strong Mind

Feast of Strength (March 2011)

This is a highlight video of all the strong members we have here at Punch Austin.

Happy St. Patrick's Day: BOTTOMS UP!!

Punch Austin Kettlebell Team 20kg Longcycle Relay

We are developing nicely. All of our lifters got to the 20kg bell status so tonight we wanted to have a little fun together. 15min, 20kg Longcycle Relay (3min each lifter) 158reps.

Glenn Revell

I had the honor to train a good friend of mine Glenn "the vigilante" Revell. When he came to me he wanted to prep for the Arena football team Dallas Vigilantes tryouts. Out of 300+ people Glenn got picked so we switched to our next phase prepping him to be a complete destroyer on the field, this is a video montage of Glenn's training enjoy.

PS I just want to say how proud I'm of Glenn, the training we did was no joke, the avg joe would have caved in after a week but Glenn came stronger and more fierce every time. He will be on that field and the opposition will be looking for his weak spots but they wont find NONE! That speaks for tons on his work ethic. We look foward to big things from this guy. Much Respect to you Glenn Revell. Looking forward to see you crushing catz on March 19th.

http://www.ickbgirls.com/ivan-denisov-interview-at-wkc-sport-camp-in-san-francisco/

Last weekend I had the honor to travel to San Francisco, Ca. and train with world champion lifters Ivan Denisov and Valery Federenko at the prestigious Ice Chamber Gym. Before the weekend I thought I knew about good technique and the fun of kettlebell sport but what an eye opener. I have learned so much within my journey of this sport about technique, endurance and strength but last weekend I feel was a real game changer. We dissected every lift and focused on using the ultimate precision in strength, endurance and technique.
Seeing how Ivan does what he does gives me a whole new breathe and respect for this great sport of kettlebell lifting. He performed two feats for us; 730 Snatches with the 24kg bell in 35 min. 1time hand switch!! and 100 jerks 2*32kg bells in 5min!! The most impressive thing of it all was that it looked as if it was effortless to him, every rep looked the same. An on looker would have been looking for Ivan's weak spots but he showed none!! It was a complete honor to hang out with him and train. I feel confident to take my students and my own kettlebell game to the next level.
So if your interested in taking your kettlebell training to the next level get into Austins only kettlebell gym PUNCH!
