I’m taking a break from my beginner kettlebell routine this week and posting a more advanced workout video.

The first half of the workout starts with a kettlbell complex that is repeated four times on each side. I’m not sure what was going on but when I did my left high pull I found out my shoulder was stiff. It took me by surprise as this had never happened before. I’ve been a little lazy regarding mobility work since I started traveling. Taking my stiff shoulder as a sign that it’s time to get back to consistent mobility work. Another thing I noticed is I should have taken more time with the eccentric presses. Recording my videos has been a great way to continue to try to improve my own form.

Here is the workout.

West Virginia Kettlebell Routine

Part A – Kettlebell Complex

1. Snatch Up
2. Eccentric Press (Lower to the rack)
3. Squat
4. Press

Repeat 4 times each side.

Part B – Kettlebell Ladder

1. Swings 80, 70, 60, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10
2. Rows 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

Do 80 swings followed by 8 rows and continue working down to 10 and 1. As always adjust as needed. 

Regarding my personal life, it’s been a wonderfully crazy two weeks filled with old friends, new friends, and lots of adventure. I’ve been so busy I’ve only had time for one workout. We spent a week in New York City where I saw lots of old friends and recorded my New York kettlebell workout in a killer location. Then we spent a 5 days at a rally with other families who live on the road fulltime in RVs. It was amazing.  I was hoping to do a group kettlebell workout but we ran out of time.

Despite not having time to blog or do kettlebell workouts I’m having an amazing time.

Hugs and High Fives,
Jenn
