INSTANT ACCESS

-> 5×5 Kettlebell – Last Call

One thing about gaining strength and muscle is that the workouts can often be quite lengthy. If we’re talking about a traditional approach where you drive to the gym, focus on one or two body parts for the day, and then drive home, it’s at least 90 minutes out of your day, if not more!

The good news is, it doesn’t have to be that way when you have Kettlebell 5×5 on your side.

Take this “Steel Warrior” 25-Minute KB Strength Challenge, for example. It’s designed in the style of my Kettlebell 5×5 Method program and focuses on the following to give you an effective workout for muscle and strength, any time, any place:

• Compound Exercises: Compound exercises work multiple muscles simultaneously, helping you get more done in less time.
• Non-competing Supersets: A non-competing superset is a workout technique where you perform two exercises back-to-back that target different muscle groups or body parts, such as a leg exercise followed by an arm exercise, without resting in between. This is a technique that can potentially cut workout time in half.
• Push Close to Failure: …because fatigue is a prerequisite for muscle growth.
• Focus on Form: Good form helps you get the most out of every set, and stay safer than last time.
• Rest 60–120 Seconds Between Sets and Reps: Moderate rest is recommended for muscle growth.
• Do 5–12 Reps Per Set: This rep range is considered optimal for muscle growth.

If you want to gain strength and muscle in a short amount of time at home with kettlebells, it CAN be done! However, you need a very specific, progressive, and methodical plan that focuses on the right things to do it effectively.

Today’s sample workout incorporates compound movements, uses non-competing supersets, focuses on good form, has you pushing close to failure, provides the right amount of rest, and targets the optimal rep ranges for muscle growth.

If you want a full program that will show you exactly how to gain more muscle and strength in less time at home with your KBs, check out my Kettlebell 5×5 Method. It’s on sale this week:

You heard of “Kettlebell 5×5”?

–> 5×5 Kettlebell Method for Strength + Muscle

Let me explain how it works and give you a sample workout.

The original 5×5 is a strength building protocol based on basic compound exercises – squats, deadlifts, bench press etc. You do 5 sets of 5 reps of each exercise, hence “5×5”. You increase weight as you go and maintain good form. Simple and intense for strength and lean muscle!

Now we have our newest addition – The Kettlebell 5×5 Program! With the Kettlebell 5×5 Method you’ll use the classic 5×5 template but you’ll use kettlebell exercises which will help you gain strength and size, build your core, mobility and avoid injury all at the same time.

Now. When doing 5×5 with kettlebells we need to be a bit more strategic. With barbells you can just increase the weight as soon as you can do 5 sets of 5 reps. But kettlebell weights tend to jump bigger.

So we’ll play around with the details like tempo, rest periods, exercise variations etc.

Here is an example workout. (Details on how to progress from one ‘bell to two, how to increase overload WITHOUT upping the weight as an option etc are in the full program and video breakdowns):

KB 5×5 – WEEK 1 / WORKOUT 2

PART 1 – Do 5 KB clean and presses on the right side. Rest 60-120 seconds. Do 5 KB clean and presses on the left side. Rest 60-120 seconds. Go back to side one and do 5 rounds. When you can do 5 sets of 5 reps progress – adjust lifting tempo, reduce rest period, choose a harder exercise variation or increase weight.

PART 2 – Do exercise one. Rest 60-120 seconds. Do exercise 2. Rest 60-120 seconds. Go back to exercise one and do 5 rounds. When you can do 5 sets of movement #1 progress – adjust lifting tempo, reduce rest period, choose a harder exercise variation or increase weight:

— Turkish Get Up – 1 per side
— Single arm KB rows – 12 reps per side

PART 3 – Do as many reps as you can of exercise one in 30 seconds. Rest for 15 seconds. Do as many reps as you can of exercise two in 30 seconds. Rest for 15 seconds. Do 3 rounds total:

— Close push ups
— Jumping jacks
— KB crush curl
— High knees in place

I remember the first time I did a performance based workout like the original 300 session.

It was a game changer for me!

Being able to measure my progress and see myself getting stronger and better was so motivating.

I wanted to bring that to my clients at a recent Bootcamp and give it a “kettlebell twist”.

Here’s a sneak peak:

Ever seen the movie 300?

I still remember the first time I picked up a kettlebell. It was over 15 years ago, and I was looking for something to mix things up. I had just retired from pro football and wanted to stay in shape. A buddy of mine who was into kettlebells handed me a 35# and said “try this out”. Little did I know that one moment would spark a lifelong passion for kettlebell training.

That first session was tough—I was sore for days—but I was hooked. The versatility and intensity of kettlebells was exactly what I was looking for. Since then I’ve created countless routines and programs for my clients and myself and have seen firsthand how kettlebells can change bodies and lives. Today I’m going to share one of my favorite kettlebell workouts with you: the “Spartan Fury” 300-rep Kettlebell – Abs Obliteration Challenge . This will challenge you to your limits and give you abs and full body a burn like no other. Let’s get started!

#

“Spartan Fury” 300-rep Kettlebell – Abs Obliteration Challenge 

PART 1 (90 reps total) – Perform the prescribed number of reps of the first exercise listed below. Rest for 30 seconds. Repeat three times WITHOUT moving on the next exercise in the sequence. Rest for 60 seconds after you finish the round, then repeat two more times for a total of three rounds:

• 10 hand to hand KB swings (5 per side)
• 5 one arm KB presses per side
• 5 lateral KB lunges per side (alternate legs each rep)

PART 2 (90 reps total) – Complete three rounds of the pair of exercises below as fast as possible. Alternate back and forth between exercises:

• 10 1-arm KB rows per side
• 10 spider climbs (5 per side); (alternate legs each rep) add a push up after doing a rep on each side / do 5 push ups total

PART 3 (120 reps total) – Set your timer to go off every 60 seconds. At the top of each minute, perform the prescribed number of reps of exercise one. Your rest is the time between when you finish your set and the next minute starts. Move on to the next exercise in the sequence and repeat. Continue in the same fashion through four rounds of the circuit total: 

• 5 burpees
• 5 side plank hold with leg raise per side

15 prone skydivers – arms + legs straight (hold for one second at top of each rep)
