Full Body Kettlebell and BodyWeight Exercise Routine (HIIT Style)

by Marianne  - October 8, 2012

Hi everyone!

Next, here is a Podcast interview I did for “Half Size Me” – I really am honoured to speak to people about my journey and fitness – especially if it even helps one person feel better about themselves!

Speaking of talking about stuff, are there any questions you would like me to answer on a video Q&A session? I could take 3 – 5 questions (about training, diet or what ever really) and answer them on a video every once in a while. I know I answer most questions here, but I could file these in the FAQ section. Just a thought 🙂 Let me know, I’m all ears!

The Workout


Today’s workout consisted of 4 Triplets (Supersets). I performed 3 rounds of all but Triplet 3 (though I admit I could have just lowered the weight, but I was too tired).

I set my Gymboss Interval Timer for 9 cycles (6 for Triplet 3) of 15 seconds rest and 45 seconds effort. I took 1 min between each Triplet to have extra recovery.

This was a fun workout because I enjoyed the variety and a few exercises that I haven’t done much of lately. It’s also good to be gradually increasing the single leg exercises again 🙂

Here are the exercises along with the weights I used and reps I performed:

Triplet 1

  1. Tactical Reverse Lunge (16kg) (20, 18, 19)
  2. Two-Handed KB Swing (20kg) (30, 31, 31)
  3. Diagonal Knee Tuck (no need to count)

Triplet 2

  1. Single Leg Romanian Deadlift (left) (16kg then 2okg) (15, 13, 14)
  2. Same on right leg (16, 14, 14)
  3. Renegade Row (2x16kg) (17, 16, 16) – these were tough today!

Triplet 3

  1. Push Press (right) (16kg) (12, 10)
  2. PP (left) (16kg) (13, 10)
  3. Alternating Swing (20kg) (28, 29)

Triplet 4

  1. Skater Hops (14, 16, 16)
  2. Hip Thrusts (20, 18, 19) – tried not to touch the floor until I was finish (constant tension HT)
  3. Burpees (12, 11, 8 )

That’s it for today. I hope you all enjoy the workout.

Later in the week I will be doing another workout, but it’s for a friend’s site. But I will post the link here for you to get to it 🙂

Cheers,

Marianne

PS – Hip Mobility Video is also close to getting done!! 🙂
