Exercise

Most Intense Kettlebell Circuit Ever!

November 20, 2009
By Parth Shah

One of the best ways to lose fat with Kettlebells is circuit training. The other day, I was just playing around with some exercises, and thought of a really cool circuit you can do. I didn’t anticipate just how difficult this circuit was going to be!

The Workout

Perform 5 rounds of:

  • Kettlebell Snatch, 5 reps
  • Kettlebell Windmill, 3 reps
  • Kettlebell Turkish Get Up, 1 rep

After watching the videos, you should realize two things: 1) These movements are difficult, and 2) these movements flow well together. This is why this circuit works so well. After the snatches, you arm is already locked out above your head.

You can move straight into a windmill. And the windmill allows you to move straight into the Turkish getup. In fact, the windmill and Turkish getups are often paired together as supersets or even stand alone workouts. They make a great pair!

Start off with 3 rounds, and work your way to 5 rounds. Once you are able to complete all 5 rounds at the required repetitions, either add repetitions or switch to a heavier weight.

If this workout is too difficult for you, then you can get rid of the turkish get up and simply perform snatches and windmills.

For some people, they are better at windmills that snatches, or they’re equally strong in both. If this is the case, you can change the repetitions to match your strength and weaknesses.

If you’re not very good at performing the Turkish get up, I would leave it out of the workout. However, the turkish get up is a great full body Kettlebell movement which you should practice on a separate time.
