Kettlebell Cardio by Heartrate

Today I used the 62# kettlebells to perform Snatches for 40 minutes. Again, the purpose was to maintain my heartrate between 135 and 150 bpm. To accomplish this I could only perform five Snatches at a time before having to set the kettlbell down to keep my heartrate from becoming too elevated. I would then resume the Snatches with my other arm. This is a slow process, but surprisingly, not very boring. By observing my heartrate, I find myself too preoccupied to become bored. After 40 minutes, I had done 200 Snatches and felt as though I had come from a run. However, after feeling that burning sensation once again, I look down and find a gaping hole in the palm of my left hand. My right hand had just recovered after I had ripped it open a few days ago. Going forward, I'm going to save this type of workout for the exercises that combine various kettlebell movements with free exercise such as the Money-Makers.
