Since nobody wants to be so fat that doctor's refuse to operate on them I figure I really can't post enough fat burning workouts. Here is a kettlebell fat burning workout one my wife and I did this week to avoid medical humiliation.

• Mobility Work
• joint circles and loosening up
• Dynamic Warm-up
• reverse lunge with twist, side lunge, inch worm, Russian twist, t-push-ups
• Kettlebell Swings
• just do a few explosive sets to prime your nervous system
• Kettlebell Circuit
• 3 rounds
• stop 1-2 reps short of failure on each drill in the first 2 rounds, go for it on the last
• rest a dew seconds between drills if you must, rest 2 minutes between rounds
• use 2 kettlebells for each drill
• Military Press
• Deadlift
• Bent Over Row
• Swing
• Over Head or Rack Twist (keep the chest high)
• Suitcase Lunge
• Finisher
• If you are in good shape:
• Body Weight Burpess, 1 set to absolute failure
• If you resemble a twinkie or are lazy
• Body Weight Squats, 1 set to absolute failure

Burpees never looked so good! Don't think they are just for women though. When I practiced Muay Thai we did more burpees than I care to remember.


Here is a great body weight squat drill to burn some calories and improve your conditioning. Plus, I find this drill really loosens up my overly tight ankles and hips.
