Ah no ribbon needed here, maybe some cookies or other scrumptious carb related delicacies that I should be avoiding.

I think more I am just wondering if I should find a "real program" or not. In the kettlebell world there aren't a whole lot of long term programs that I can think of outside of Pavel's stuff and few others. Maybe I need to do more reading.

I challenge myself from time to time. Other day I did 150 swings in 5ish mins 1handed. It's not a lot but a year ago I couldn't do it so I am proud. Sometimes I push myself and it's too much do I back off for a bit then come back just as strong to be decrepit. Hell I remember sessions 8 months ago where I would be unable to complete and just broken down and unable to move, questioning why I was doing this to myself. I love this forum and have read it for a long time because there is such a wealth of knowledge and it is so organic, unlike other forums which are more sycophantic. There are some great routines I see on her. Armor building is amazing, the humane burpees is *chef kiss*, loaded carries should be taught in PE at a young age. Maybe I am just trying to figure out put it all together in something long term.
