Today's kettlebell workout

After running two back to back days of 12 miles apiece I felt the legs could do with a day off running.

Instead I opted for a short kettlebell session which went as follows:-

24kg Kb swing x 20 reps
24kg kb dead, clean, catch, squat, press complex x 5 reps
Every 90 seconds for 5 rounds

Rest 3 min

Double 16kg kb racked step ups onto 18" box
10 reps each leg (60 sec total)
Rest 60 sec
X 3 sets

Rest 3 minutes

16kg kb snatch
1 rep every 10 sec for 60 sec
Keep bell locked in between reps over head
Then 30 sec burn set (10 reps)
Switch arms
Complete 3 rounds (9 minutes) non stop

Rest 2 minutes.

16kg Alt Renegade Row x 10
16kg x 2 double clean x 10
Rest 30sec
5 rounds.

Job done. Each round was tough in its own right. The step ups were the most intense. Great for unilateral leg strength, ideal for runners and cyclists!
