How to do it?

For this session you will need an average size kettlebell and to have done a good warm up for around 5/10mins. Make sure you have done some specific movements (i.e. no weight kettlebell swings, squats, lunges).

You are going to do the following exercises:

  • Swing
  • Clean
  • Racked squat
  • Press

Do 1 of each with 1 hand and then swap to the other. Then you count up and conduct 2 reps of each exercise and swap hands. Next continue up to 3, 4 & then 5. Then continue but come down from 5 to 1 rep.

Have a good warm down and stretch.

Alternative

Warm up: 1 min or around 30 kettlebell swings and bit of dynamic stretching.

With medium weight kettlebell (I use 20kg) do a ladder of:

  • Clean
  • Press
  • Squat

Doing 1 each side, then 2 of each, 3, 4,5.

So clean, squat, press.

Swap sides with a swing then repeat the same on the other side.

Then clean, squat, press again and instead of swapping sides do another clean, squat, press on the same side (that’s 2 on).

Then swap sides. Repeat this process until you have done 5 on each side.

Rest: If you are working on cardio only have one min rest, if you are leaning more towards strength and conditioning have 2/3 mins.

Repeat, but this time I start alternating reps and weight to really make things interesting. With a lighter kettlebell (I use 16 kg) do 10 cleans, 10 squats, 10 press and then do the same on the other side.

Rest: If you are working on cardio only have one min rest, if you are leaning more towards strength and conditioning have 2/3 mins.

Do again but this time use medium weight (I use 20kg) and do 6 reps of the exercises.

Rest: desired amount

Finally do again heavy kettlebell (I use 28kg) and do all exercises conducting 3 reps. Done and dusted.

If you feeling really hardcore repeat starting with light kettlebell again.
