Savory ground pork cooked with soy sauce, garlic, and ginger, wrapped in cool, crisp lettuce leaves.

We swing the kettlebell overhead while the kettlebell community swings to eye or shoulder height. No matter how many times we’re admonished for our excessive swing, we proceed unabated.

Men use a 2-pood KB on the swings.
Women use a 1.5-pood KB on the swings.

Use pull-up bar or rings for the pulls-to-inverted and keep your arms STRAIGHT as you pull from hanging below (feet towards the floor,) to hanging inverted (feet towards the ceiling.)

Ingredients

6 oz ground pork
1 Tbsp butter or coconut oil
1 clove garlic, minced
½ tsp fresh ginger, grated
1 Tbsp soy sauce
½ tsp white vinegar
¼ tsp chili flakes or sriracha (optional, for heat)
2–3 large butter lettuce or romaine leaves
1 Tbsp scallions, sliced (for garnish)
1 tsp olive oil (for drizzling)

Preparation

Melt butter or coconut oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground pork and cook for 5–7 minutes, breaking it up with a spatula, until browned and fully cooked.

Add garlic, ginger, and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Stir in soy sauce, vinegar, and chili flakes or sriracha if using. Simmer for 1–2 minutes, letting the flavors combine.

Remove from heat. Spoon the pork mixture into lettuce leaves.

Top with sliced scallions and a light drizzle of olive oil. Serve immediately.

"We don’t do half-rep pull-ups, we don’t do half-rep squats and we don’t do half-rep push-ups. If there is a natural range of motion to any movement we like to complete it. To do otherwise seems unnatural. We would argue that partial reps are neurologically incomplete."
