Turkish Get-up with 160 lbs @ 166 BW

Just some TGU's in the middle of the night. My heaviest successful lift was 160 lbs, on the left arm. I haven't been doing TGU's with anything heavier than a 53 lb kettlebell lately, but it's a good movement for me. I've trained the movement almost exclusively with lighter weights, but because I concentrate on maintaining a good connection to the ground in all stages and have good general strength/flexibility, I'm able to get a good conversion to heavier weights.

BW was 166 when I weighed-in earlier in the evening. Normally, I walk around at 168-170 nowadays, so this is a bit on the lighter side for me.

@shoeshinemorad I'm a nobody; never particularly successful in any sport, no big athletic accomplishments. Just a guy who likes to train and has done so diligently and ambitiously for going on 12 years. I subscribe to the Dan Gable "outwork them all" philosophy...

well done, my goal is body weight TGU, I'm the same size and as you, so far i'm up to 95lb dumbell, I like the idea of straps to stay within the kettlebell realm of off set center of gravity.

Get after it!!!! I think your next video should include a human kettlebell.
