The 4th Annual California Open Kettlebell Championship

March 8, 2016 by IR Staff Leave a Comment

Just when you think it can’t get any better, this year’s competition was even better than last year’s and the year before!

Here are the FOUR HUGE reasons why it was even better:

12799462_10153865816056427_1039661624954361145_n12717967_10153865816011427_235147024042309624_nFirst, due to the heart-breaking news that our kettle-brother Philip Gutierrez passed the day before the competition, on Friday the 26th of February 2016, this Cali Open memorialized, celebrated, and became a lift for Phil and his family and friends. With a black sash draped above and the platforms every lifter felt the spiritual presence of an incredible man of God, and mentor to many. The Lobue family was closest to this man and his incredible legacy, and they came down from Central California to represent for Phil. An amazing moment of silence followed by an empty platform with a single chalked bell sitting on the platform, represented Phil, while the entire audience paid respect to this man for a full ten minute set started this incredible day of firsts. The weekend ended with donations, prayers, and respects paid to man of great character, Philip Gutierrez.

Second, a huge showing from our lady lifters, with over 50 females lifting double bells! This is the first WAKSC kettlebell sport competition where women and girls lifted two kettlebells instead of just one. They proved any of the naysayers wrong with their incredible results in Jerk and Long Cycle, many lifting more reps than most male lifters, lifting the same weights. Notably, Kimberly Fox set an Absolute Record in Long Cycle with two 24 kg kettlebells by driving forward to 61 reps like the professional she is. This enabled her to achieve Master of Sport International Class according to Ketacademy Ranking Standards (the Competitive Rules and Ranking Standards of the World Association of Kettlebell Sport Clubs). Some of the other incredible women of the day were: Brittany van Schravendijk of KOR Strength and Conditioning Kettlebell Club lifting two 16kg Long Cycle for 103 reps; Mia Lobue of Girevik Gear Club lifting two 4kg Long Cycle for 79 reps (she is 6 years old); Chelsey Marr of Texas Kettlebell Academy lifting two 28kg Long Cycle for 26 reps, and so many others! Check out the video below to see the greatest flight of the day!

Third, over 150 lifters from all over the nation and World united to lift kettlebells and embrace friendships past and present. Again, the California Open Kettlebell Championship proved to be a World contender for most attended kettlebell sport competition. With lifters flying into Costa Mesa, California’s very own Innovative Results (IR), to lift in Orange Kettlebell Club‘s (OKC) greatest kettlebell sport championship for the fourth year in a row. John “Wild” Buckley, Nazo, and Jason Dolby proved to the World of Kettlebell Sport lifters that they will offer a well-organized competition, under the sanctions of World Association of Kettlebell Sport Clubs (WAKSC) within the rules and rankings of Ketacademy, and deliver above-and-beyond in uniting this sport with friendship, love, and passion! With Denis’s hugs, Rachinski’s heart, and and the OKC Chu (or Spirit). this event over-delivered again to all lifters and observers both in-person and online with a flawless livestream of every lift of both days. Being a part of the WAKSC Grand Prix, this event is sure to get better every year.

Fourth, next year’s California Open Kettlebell Championship will be home to the Kettlebell Sport World Championship! Taking the place of other smaller and less organized World Championships, this World Championship is the place to be if you are looking to be recognized in Kettlebell Sport. Organized by Orange Kettlebell Club; Rules and Rankings by Ketacademy; Sanctioned be the World Association of Kettlebell Sport Clubs; this World Championship is putting Kettlebell Clubs first, and sharing the power of this sport with the entire World. The event is already blowing up on Facebook, and is sure to attract even more lifters, clubs, and nations as the year progresses. Set to happen at none other than Innovative Results, this four day event starting on February 23, 2017 is sure to bring hundreds of lifters together, proving the power of kettlebell clubs through a well-organized, insanely fun, and passionately competitive championship!!

Aaron Guyett, 32kg Nationals (Chicago, IL)

After claiming the American Record in Men’s Amateur Biathlon in 2014, IR owner Aaron Guyett took on Men’s Professional Long Cycle at the 2015 California Open yielding 53 reps with 32kg kettlbells. This showing tallied Aaron  as the highest USA coefficient lifter sending him on the road the the IUKL World Championship in Ireland this November, but first, CHICAGO.

Aaron Guyett's Winnings from Nationals

Just last month (July 2015), Aaron traveled to Nationals in Chicago to punch his ticket to the IUKL World Championship. Returning to Biathlon in the Men’s Professional Division, Aaron took 1st in the 85kg weight category with 32kg bells, earning him a place on Team USA and the opportunity to compete at Worlds’ in Dublin, Ireland (November 2015).

The week after Aaron’s return from Chicago, 5 members of IR’s Kettlebell Crew headed up north to take their platforms at the 2015 Northern California Open. Let’s see how they did!

Out of 133 competitors, 9 Innovative Results family members stepped onto the platform at the 2nd Annual California Open Kettlebell Sport Lifting Championship.

Nine representatives in one of the largest kettlebell competitions in the nation!

It was all guts and glory for these nine competitors as they set personal records, earned kettlebell sport rankings, and enjoyed the celebration of their coach and fellow competitor setting a new American Record.

Improving the Efficiency of Your Kettlebell Technique

September 26, 2013 by ptpt Leave a Comment

OKC Kettle Comp Row Image

If kettlebells aren’t a part of your workout routine, now is a great time to get started.

Once used in the 18th Century(Russia) for the measurement of grain and other goods, kettlebells quickly shifted into heavy athletics training and muscular development.

For all you history buffs you can check out – Kettlebell Science: History of the Kettlebell 

There are some incredible health and strength benefits in using kettlebells, in fact IR broke down what we considered the Top Ten Reasons .

Over the past couple years the IR Team has been fortunate enough to learn from some of the best Girevoy Sport coaches and athletes in the World, and with kettlebell use and competition on the rise we would like to share our knowledge with you!

On November 12th, 2016, you can join Coach Jason Dolby of the Orange Kettlebell Club and Coach Aaron Guyett of Innovative Results in a 1-Day Certification Course that will instruct form, technique, efficiency and Giveroy (kettlebell) Sport.
