Check out this video of Andy Fitting jerking a 48kg kettlebell (pimpbell) for 76 reps (38+38) in 4 mins, demonstrating incredible strength and fitness.

I love this video for 2 reasons.

Firstly, any video with Andy Fitting repping like hell on a kettlebell is a good one.

Secondly, check out the guy in the background going for it with some partial crunches.

What a contrast!

Which is most beneficial? Partial crunches or high rep kettlebell jerks?

Functionally speaking partial crunches may be good for helping you sit up in bed but I doubt very much they will have a training effect anything like high rep kettlebells.

If you could only do one exercise........ what would it be?

    Yeah mate! No six packs anywhere to be seen, but partial crunches :( :)

    Haha this video did make me smile when I watched it; talk about contrast! Couldn't have been better if it were set up.

    The second thing that makes me laugh is watching the cruncher have his rest... HALFWAY through the cleans; those crunches must be killer! Haha.

    Russ,I commented on the video on youtube and thought afterwards 'I hope this dude isn't Andy Fittings mate'. Too right, could have been a set up! How's the training going mate?

    Training's going OK for the moment thanks mate. Bumped it back up to three days a week [possibly 4, if my shoulders can take chest training]. With gains coming along nicely.

    How are things going for you? The new video is looking swish.
