Workout Tips
- Each 3 round portion is a sprint. Choose a weight that you can move quickly and efficiently. You shouldn’t have to rest during each portion.
- During the 1 minute rest, don’t lie or sit down. Keep moving with gently walking to help your heart rate come back down.
Scaling & Equipment Options
- Beginners can reduce each portion to 2 rounds or increase the rest periods to 2 minutes.
- For a more difficult workout, use 2 dumbbells instead of one for the push press, devil’s press, row and thrusters.
- Another option for a more challenging workout, would be to double the reps of the push press, kettlebell swings, rows and thrusters (20 each).
- Workout can also be performed with a barbell for the push press, thrusters and rows and to use front squats instead of goblet squats.
- Entire workout can also be performed with 1 kettlebell if that’s all you have.
Are there demonstrations of the workouts. Not sure exactly how to execute some of the descriptions.
