Turkish Get-Up with 40 kg Dumbbell

After a condensed session of latest exercise routine:
2x (20 A1H KB Swing 32 kg – 2 TGUs Left/Right 32 kg – 10 Goblet Squats 32 kg – 90s walk – 400m run – 90s walk)
1x (60 A1H KB Swing 24 kg – 6 TGUs Left/Right 24 kg)

I have put 4 10 kg (22 lb) plates on a dumbbell bar and tried the TGU on my strong side (right).
1. try: I was dripping wet with sweat (hot day) and immediately sliding all over when laying on the floor, so I put down the weight right after I was able to hold it above my chest.
2. try: This time I was laying on a non slipping surface (piece of carpet) so sweat was not an issue but I was not concentrated enough and had to quit after a half TGU.
3. try: Put on Machinehead by Bush got in the “Zone” and pulled a decent TGU (although not quite Khalos Stenos style).

Happy 🙂

Note: It’s about 41 kg (90 lb) including the weight of the dumbbell bar.
My current bodyweight is 82 kg (180 lb) at 178 cm (5ft 10in) height
