A great challenge we put our female clients through. What an amazing fat burner that kept focus on the major lifts as well as quality!!
Swings: 150
Squat Thurster: 75
Renegade Rows: 75
Don't forget a good warm-up first! This is a great drill to open the hips and get the shoulders for the workout ahead.

Kettlebells the Perfect Vacation Workout?
As I mentioned last week, I travelled to Chicago this past weekend. However, I didn't want too much time to go by without a good training session. Fortunately, my good friend let me use his home gym to get a great workout. He has all the good tools, a barbell, rack with chin-up bar, and kettlebells.
Not having a lot of time, as I had to attend many family events, makes you really focus on the most effective drills. They go back to my basic principles of movements.
Lower Body Pull
Upper Body Pull
Squat Variation
Upper Body Press
Single Leg Drill
This led me to a quick kettlebell circuit of the following (allowing for 30 seconds to one minute of rest between drills).
1. Snatches (15 each side)
2. Rows (12 each side)
3. Rack Lunges (10 each side)
4. Windmills (8 each side)
The following day I had to be more on my time
1. Two Handed Swings: 100
2. Push Press: 100 (50 each hand)
What a great way to keep up on the training and still maintain the responsibilities of one's real life!
