really, really,really experimenting and what happened at pt

this will be my 1st all kettlebell experiment. i plan on changing and reforming it for the next few weeks.
yesterday, i had my 1st and last physical therapy sessions for the ache in my right shoulder. bottom line. she though i did not have enough counter strength in my rear deltoids and gave me some bands to do exercises with. it was fairly intense and i think i learned a lot. instead of bands i think ill substitute weights or bells well see.
using 5,10, and 15lb kettles this time. dont know if ill do 2 sets or 1. like i say this is an experiment this week.
2arm swing 10 reps per poundage
1arm swing 10 reps per arm and per poundage
1 arm abductor
figure 8
front squat
ok here i go
wow what a killer! definitly only one one set. rest between moves about30 seconds
back hurting, panting and shoulder protesting a little
2as 5lb way too light i plan for now to get a much heavier bell today. 15lb okay
the surprise is how much the squat takes out of me. no doubt not only shoulder not strong enough but legs not so hot. may be because i use weights too heavy during the week to go reall deep. at this point im bottoming out with the kettlebells.
next week more experimenting. i  need to work on get up  oh well
total time only 10 minutes. results achy achy. need to work on form dont give up
