MMA meets Kettlebells

Every once in a while, we get together with some of our tutors and have a blast with some fairly gruelling workouts. None of us are into orthodox training and with us all having slightly different tastes, it's the perfect chance to share ideas and inject a little sprite into our own training.

This week, it was our head MMA and Kettlbell tutor James' turn to come up with the circuit and I have to say that it was some session. It didn't take long but my word, it was a bit of a beast.

If you enjoy a challenge or have clients that like pushing themselves then by all means give it a go but be warned, it's not for the faint hearted:

Round 1 - 20 minutes AMRAP (as many rounds as possible) with the following exercises

  • 10 x press ups
  • 10 x halo to woodchop with a 20kg plate
  • 20 meters overhead lunges with the 20kg plate
  • 20 meters reverse bear crawling whilst dragging back the 20kg plate on a yoga mat with alternate single pulls
  • 20 meters walking to put the mat back
2 minutes break

Round 2 - 6 minutes alternate Turkish Get Up / Windmill switching sides at the top with long cycle switch

1 minute break

Round 3 - 2 x 20 meters of tyre flips

Enjoy and if you do give it a go, share your experience on our facebook group
