Some days are for physically demanding workouts and some days are for technique, and some days are for both, depending on how you feel or what your goals are. Just don't give up technique for a hard workout.
When it comes to having a physically demanding workout, it does not mean sacrificing technique. Focus on technique every time you do Kettlebell workouts and not only will you get better but you'll be able to get more out of the workout. Train your mind to be disciplined enough to maintain good technique when your body is feeling the fatigue set in. If you deliberately practice improving technique through hours and hours of repitition and correction, then that is what your body and mind will revert to in a fatigued state. Don't be afraid to practice basic technique on a daily basis because your 'beyond that', or you think you don't need it. Just enjoy the whole process. I did it through 25 years of wrestling and it makes a difference. The fundamental technique I practiced in my first year of wrestling was still part of my practice in my last year of wrestling. You need the fundamentals to excel and reach a higher skill level of technique or competition, or just plain progression/improvement.
Technique, Technique, Technique. Make progress everyday either by improving something within yourself or by making a positive impact on someone else. I make an effort to improve myself with more knowledge and skills, getting a challenging kettlebell workout, and helping someone else learn, improve or just feel better.
Inspire others and don't be afraid to Be inspired by others.
