How do you know if your gym is a break from the stress or yet another burden to your clients? Ask yourself these questions.

Every time I see one of those “No Excuses!” headlines or memes, I want to heave a medicine ball at my computer. They say things like going to the gym really isn’t selfish, kids shouldn’t be an excuse for not working out, and there’s no excuse for not taking care of yourself.

 

I agree, and over the years I’ve made working out a priority. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings at 9:30am, I’m at my CrossFit box laboring away.

It might take a little bit more planning at first, but these strategies will save you a lot in the long term.

When it comes to sticking to a structured nutritional plan – whether for health, physique, performance, or all of the above – the two biggest obstacles to success time and money. A diet focused around whole, natural foods can be expensive (especially for someone making a transition away from processed and convenience foods), and then you’ve got the cost of supplements.

Kettlebell workouts are super effective and versatile. In fact, there is so much you can do with just one kettlebell, that simply by having one at home you’ll increase your exercise consistency and ensure you get in workouts even when you can’t get to the gym.

 

This workout takes only 15 minutes and uses just one kettlebell. I find that workouts like these are perfect for Saturday mornings when the kids are home or you’ve got weekend plans and are crunched for time. It’s also easy to take one along on a road trip for a few quick travel workouts—just make sure you secure it with a seatbelt!

 

 

Who it’s for:

Intermediate lifters

 

What you need:

All you need for this workout is one kettlebell!

 

How to do it:

Set your timer for 15 minutes and get through as many quality rounds as possible of the circuit below.

 

The Exercises:

 

Turkish Get Up with Windmill at the top

  • TGU x1/Windmill x5 each side

 

Goblet Squat x5-10

  • Light bell=more reps. Heavy bell=fewer reps

 

Single Arm Row x5-10 each side

 

Kettlebell Swing x15-20

  • Do a 2-hand swing if you’re not very experienced with swings.
  • If you have more experience, try a 1-hand or hand to hand swing.

 

Rest:

Remember, we said quality rounds!  That means you rest when you need to, so your form never gets sloppy.

Give it a go and let us know what you think!
