Double kettlebell swings

Thursday, August 7, 2008





Today was a skill day so we warmed up with a few rounds of our kettlebell complex and then dove right into the workout.  It's a bit of a grind but a great way to work on building volume and technique.  It was universally agreed that double kettlebell swing was the hardest exercise of the six.

Workout was:

Skill day

4-5 sets of each tri-set

Group A
5 - double kettlebell clean and squat
kettlebell crosswalk carry
row 250
rest 1 minute between sets

Group B
15 - ring push-ups
30 sec double kettlebell swings
5 - shuttle runs
