Oy.

I'm just crazy enough to try it.

...some day when my arms aren't already shot from my workout.

arms, shmarms. all you need to do is hold it up. ;-)

ho. ho. ho.

in all seriousness though, I wish he'd demonstrated putting it all together in one fluid motion at the end.

still... it's something I'm probably crazy enough to try. possibly Sunday.

crazy?

Thats a great breakdown!!!!! Thanks for posting it. As a side note, in Cirque's Quidam one of the acrobats does essentially a turkish getup but instead of a kettlebell, his partner is balanced palm to palm - one hand - its INSANE. Axis remembered it from Quidam when I was trying to explain the exercise to him, after I saw that I said - yeah, like that, but with a kettlebell and not as cool looking... oh well, one day!
