Outstanding experience at the IKMF | IKO World Championship!
For the first time in the history of kettlebell sport,
a 10-minute Double Half Sn**ch with 2 x 32 kg kettlebells was performed!
65 reps — Denis Vasilev (84.6 kg body weight)
World Record in the 89 kg / 195 lb weight class
76 reps — Axel Adams (99.1 kg body weight)
Absolute World Record
I am happy not only about my 1-rep personal best, but also about finally succeeding as a coach — my student has overcome his teacher.
I am so proud of Axel!
Grateful to IKMF .k.m.f and personally to Stephane Dauvergne .dauvergne , for the opportunity.
Special thanks for the warm welcome and kind hospitality from Brent Morehouse and Judi DeMuro
The Professional Division in the 10-minute DHS 2 x 32 kg now exists!
It is possible. It is doable. It is amazing.
I hope more athletes will follow our example and challenge these numbers!
