RKC II certification workshop (July 8-10)

I passed all tests of RKC II.
However, my skill of kettlebell (KB) work is not perfect yet. I need improve my skill.

I need practice following points.

1. Double KB work: my double swing was not good. I need use hip movement more.

2. TGU: sometimes my knee collapsed in.

3. New KB drill such as jerk and bentpress

For further training, I decided following principles.

1. Do all KB work should be performed perfectly. Don't chase heavy weight or high reps unless I can do it perfectly
   


2. Joint mobility (JM) work including R- & I- phase, nerve glides, and visual work should have higher priority than KB work. If I don't have time to do both JM work and KB work, do JM work.

Thanks
