This Morning's Workout, 4/30 - Kettlebells

Full body, compound movements, hitting multiple muscle groups at once. I perform one set of each exercise to failure, using heavy weight--modified HIT principles. Upper body exercise sets have a rep range of 10-12 and lower body has a target range of 20.

This is my only kettlebell workout, though I sometimes substitute a kettlebell for a dumbbell in other workouts. I received an adjustable kettlebell handle as a gift a long while ago and have been happily using it ever since. There are a number of adjustable kettlebell handles out there, but few go up to 80+ pounds; so my version keeps my workout challenging. I finished my workout with incline sit-ups and hanging leg raises for abs.

I will start posting my favorite workouts as I get time. You can always track my workouts here. Enjoy.

My wonderful wife bought me this adjustable kettlebell handle and weight stack for my birthday. Woo-hoo! Now I will be punishing myself in the man-cave (basement) with this and the rest of my instruments of self-torture (dumbbells and barbells). :-) I will post a review of this product in the near future.
