Kettlebell Workout

Here is a fun kettlebell workout that I tried out on Monday for conditioning and ab work. Since I put heavy weights over my head so often, I chose to use swings for the dynamic lifts to give my shoulders a break. In your case, feel free to mix in cleans and snatches instead.

The idea here is to alternate between dynamic lifts, to improve explosiveness and elevate your metabolism, with grinding core lifts, to improve abdominal strength.

Try this kettlebell workout out for yourself:
  • Mobility Work
  • Dynamic Warm-up
    • lunges, push-ups, etc
  • Rotator Cuff Work
  • 1 KB Swing x 50 reps
  • A1 2KB Swing 2 x 20
  • A2 Renegade Row 2 x 5-8
  • B1 2KB Swing 2 x 20
  • B2 Corkscrew 2 x 5-6
  • C1 2KB Swing 2 x 20
  • C2 2KB Overhead Twist 2 x max reps
  • D1 2 KB Swing 2 x 20
  • D2 Windmill 2 x 5
  • 2 KB Swing 1 x max reps
