Once you’ve finished all the repetitions, take one minute to rest and then repeat the superset two more times. Next, you will perform the one-legged squat.

CLICK HERE for a FREE Workout www.turbulencetraining.com The beauty of this workout is that you can do it in only a small amount of space because you will be using just your bodyweight and kettlebells.

Once there, take a minute or two to take a rest, and then repeat up to two more times. The first exercise is a Kettlebell Squat. For this exercise, hold the KB at chest height in front of you,push your hips back, squat down, and then drive up. Repeat for 20 reps. The next exercise is known as the Extended Push up. It will be a regular push up with a slight twist in that your hands will be in front of your head. This makes the push up exercise a bit more difficult, especially on your abdominals when you are at the bottom of the exercise. Each workout, try to extend a little bit more. After all the reps are completed for the push ups, you’ll follow with 20 repetitions of Kettlebell Swings. Now, this exercise is not a squat, but instead more of an RDL type of movement. Take the KB back between your legs, push your hips back and really thrust them to drive the KB upward to shoulder height. In this exercise, you’re arms will not be doing any of the work; they are simply along for the …
