30 Minute Workout! All systems go!

Writer: Russell WoodRussell Wood



Every Monday we work on a 30 minute kettlebell session. I rotate the workouts approx every 5 or 6 weeks.


You'll need a lighter kettlebell to warmup with and a slightly heavier work kettlebell. If you dont have a lighter bell for a warmup, i recommend simply using a youtube 5 minute bodyweight warmup.


The most recent program is challenging but fun, give it a go!


Warmup (approx 5 minutes) - flowing from one movement to the next with a minimal or no break. Do this sequence once or twice until warm. This phase takes about 5 minutes.


20 halos

10 single arm swings each side

10 American swings

10 deep squat to forward fold stretch

10 goblet/air squats

5 windmills each side


Workout


It consists of 5 rounds with 40 seconds of work and 20 seconds of rest per exercise.
