At our Sacramento kettlebell studio, we specialize in what we call “semi private” personal training. The idea is that it’s like personal training – in terms of the attention you get from your trainer and the goal-specific workout – but you’re in a small group with an average of two to four other people.
We have beginner-focused groups, groups where we focus on building maximum strength and muscle… but our most popular group typically ends up being Kettlebell MRT.
Kettlebell MRT involves stacking multiple heavier, compound exercises together to create an oxygen debt.
With this style of training, you end up burning a ton of calories – during the session, AND for the rest of the day – plus you’re able to build lean muscle, all at the same time.
This is NOT HIIT (similar, but HIIT typically does NOT have you using heavier, compound movements).
And this is NOT traditional strength training (DOES typically use heavier lifts, but also typically very little cardio or conditioning involved).
It’s the best of both worlds!
