Today’s Workout (posted a day late)

Haven't done kettlebell in a while.
Yesterday's workout felt a lot harder than
it should have.
15 seconds two-hand swing, 24 kg kettlebell, 15 sec rest
10 min (20 sets)
The last three minutes really had me winded, and my forearms definitely felt it. I noticed I a tendency to bend my arms slightly to lessen the load on my forearms. Earlier workouts have caused the area right at the base of my bicep, right by my elbow, to get really sore. I think it's from the arm-bending habit. This workout I really focused on keeping my arms loose, but straight. This also led to me leaning back more at the top of the swing and really getting a good hip thrust out of it. Overall, it's an improvement on form, but my forearms were not ready for the new workload. They'll get used to it.
