Hey! Alright! In this video I'm going to do a Kettlebell Routine for you, mostly because
I'm passionate about Kettlebells. I love Kettlebells. I don't know about you, but being sick of
waiting in lines at gyms to use machines, or do bicep curls all day gets a little old
for me! So, I love to just pick up the old Kettlebell, swing it around a little bit,
but the biggest thing is we run out of what to do.
We learn how to do the swings, and the snatches and the cleans and all that stuff. But how
can we continue to put these in a good order, so that it is actually something we can do
daily, weekly and how ever often you want to work out.
So I've got a great kettlebell routine for you, that I highly recommend you try. It won't
take that long, you can do as many as you want.
So I am going to get into position and tell you exactly what we're doing.
So, normally for something like this, I would use my 20KG which is like 44 lb kettlebell.
That's a bit heavy, which is good if you can lift that. For this demonstration, I don't
want to be huffing and puffing and sweating and all that stuff. So I decided to stick
with just a simple, lighter 12KG which I think is 24 to 26 pounds something like that. Really
great for just this demonstration purposes.
so if you're brand new, you're gonna want to do that.
Now, I always warm up. You gotta warm up, right? Because kettlebells is a lot about
form. So just to give you some quick warm up exercises, I do a little of the Around
the World, swing the kettlebell around in both directions like this.
Really try and keep a tight straight core with your legs locked out.
another one I will do is do halos around the head. This really warms up the shoulders.
And you can do this for about a minute or two. Just like that. I can go around like
this and get that stretch.
And anything else that you wanna do to warm up and get really loose and limber for this
one.
So here's what we're gonna do. I'm gonna go over it really quickly and show you what it
looks like.
Basically, we're gonna start on our left side. And then we're gonna do our right side. And
we're gonna do five reps of this three exercise combination.
So, starting with the weight on the ground as always, we're gonna start with a clean
and bring it up to here. Straight & locked out. And then we're gonna squat and the third
exercise is a press all the way up.
That is three exercises but it is one rep.
We are gonna do it five times on the left side.
So I would come back down to the clean. To the squat. To the press. Five times. That's
two out of five.
When I'm done, I want to switch hands. Clean. Squat. Press. That's one rep.
Clean. Squat. Press. Got it?
When I do five on that side, we're gonna switch back to the left, but now we're just gonna
do clean & squat.
But we're gonna do it ten times. Clean. Squat. 10 times.
Then, as you can imagine, we're gonna switch sides and do clean, squat. 10 times.
When we finish with that, switch back over and we're just gonna do 15 cleans.
So just clean 15 times and then switch sides. And of course, 15 more times.
Now I haven't done the math, and hopefully my mic isn't making too much noise as I'm
doing this. I haven't done the math, but this is gonna be a lot of reps, which is awesome
for getting the heart rate up.
What I recommend is doing this at least twice. If you can do it three times that's awesome.
So that's a quick and simple kettlebell routine that you can do very quickly with three exercises.
The clean from ground to here.
The squat. And the Press.
