Kalos Sthenos

On June 22, 2010, in Strength, by TF4M

Myself and Finnbjörn of Litlaeyri – the neighbouring farm, have been practising Kalos Sthenos (Beautiful Strength)  or the “Turkish Get Up”  for a while now.

This is  a complicated movement which calls every muscle in the body into play,  and we felt quite accomplished when we both succeeded with 16k for the first time today (one Pood) – feeling quite good in the process !  :-)

Once I can perform this movement with 48kg and flawless technique, I will consider myself ready to start Olympic Weightlifting again.

Humpback Whale

On June 20, 2010, in The Farm, by TF4M

A great Humpback whale has been feeding in the fjord again this summer.

I noticed a great splash in the sea through the radio shack window.

Unfortunately the whale was far from the shore, and it did not clear the water again once I had the camera ready.
