Rob's Optimal Kettlebell Workout
1. Kettlebell Swings – 75 reps
2. Standing Overhead Kettlebell Press – 50 reps
In as few sets of good form as possibleNo more than 1 minute rest between setsGoal – 50 reps in one set, then move to larger kettlebellExample: 20 presses, 60s rest, 15 presses, 60s rest, 15 pressesSuggested Weight to Begin: 10lbRob's Beginning Weight: 10lb This workout serves dual purpose you are obviously working out the shoulder(deltoids) but the standing and weight on one side forces stabilizing muscles through your whole body to fire and keep you from dipping to the weighted side.3. Kettlebell Front Squat – 50 reps
In as few sets of good form as possibleNo more than 1 minute rest between setsGoal – 50 reps in one set, then move to larger kettlebellExample: 20 squats, 60s rest, 15 squats, 60s rest, 15 squatsSuggested Weight to Begin: 30lbRob's Beginning Weight: "Assisted" Squat Only4. Farmers Walk, Suitcase Carry Modification – 2 sets
This exercise does not work in reps instead its time or distance.Your goal is to carry and walk with the weight for as long as your grip can hold it, then switch the weight to the other side and repeatDo 2 sets of this carry for time on each side.Rob's Beginning Weight: ~35lbs for 100 paces x 2 setsThe recommended starter kettlebell weight for the swings and squats is a 44lb or 54lb kettlebell but you can start lower obviously, you will just probably work through to the goals a bit quicker. This workout is best when done 3 or 4 times a week with a day between each workout. The first week you might need an extra rest day after the first workout if you are not using those muscles in your daily life. The great thing about it is this really scales well by just bumping up the weight.
