What's the difference between snatching a 10kg kettlebell with one hand and a 20kg barbell with both hands? Less likelyhood of wrist injury for beginners for one thing. And when you get your barbell snatch form right you can train with a hell of a lot more weight, producing more strength and more power. But the programs I posted don't include the barbell snatch (which is an Olympic lift). The main lift is the squat which is the king of exercises. The reason I would advocate the use of barbell training is for more long term progression. A novice can squat 100kg after a few months of barbell training but I'm not sure it's even possible with kettlebells? But hey, everybody's different. Different strokes and all that. If you like kettlebells and they work for you then that's great.

While kettlebell training is better than nothing, basic barbell training will always be the mainstay of someone looking to increase their strength and power in a serious way. Try stronglifts.com or startingstrength.wikia.com for beginner programs. They're free too!

That's some serious air for a track. Everyone usually keeps it low and tight but this guy went fuckin large. Nice.

Very nice. I'm liking the lumberjack getup too. Very Pastrana.

You fucked my dead mother last night? Must have taken you a while to dig her up. Jesus that's pretty sad. You went through the trouble of digging up a dead body to have a screw. Are you afraid of living women? Surely with all that money you could buy a hooker. I'm sure your mom would be glad of the business. The the recession has hit her pretty hard. There's not a big demand for midget whores anymore.

If you're so rich why don't you spend some money on having that bent cock of yours straightened.

If trolls live under bridges how the hell do you get internet?

Great shot. You can tell how much skill the rider has just by how he can throw down a table with that much style and still stay totally focused on the trail ahead. Awesome.

Nice. It's an obvious crash but shows total commitment from the rider. And obviously the fork isn't compressed because once the tyres slide out the weight is removed and the fork rebounds. I don't think he's smiling. He's gritting his teeth which most people do when bracing for an impact or are riding hard. And I think the photographer got lucky and just caught him looking into the lens. The snow wouldn't be solid enough for him to hold his and his bikes weight on such a small point as his elbow. It would sink into the snow. And then there's the snow spray. Give people the benefit of the doubt.
