Okay – today I want to chat with you about using a “tier” system in your kettlebell workout groups.

This is a game-changer!

Just yesterday morning, I was leading my Saturday kettlebell boot camp class. We had people at all different fitness levels – from beginners to those who are super fit and ready to crush it.

But the beauty of using my level system was that every single person had an incredible workout tailored specifically to their needs.

Listen up because this is key: I’m about to let you in on my secret sauce.

It’s all about the TIER SYSTEM.

Here’s how it works:

For each exercise we do in class, I offer both a “level 1” version and a “level 2” version. During our demo time, I show everyone how they can choose which option best suits their individual fitness level.

Here’s a great example for you:

LEVEL 1 – Bulgarian Goat Bag Swings (movement I learned from Dan John at the NYC RKC earlier this year – great for beginners to learn the hip hinge! – it’s like a slow-motion swing pattern for the lower body with the KB pressed into your stomach – get my course or Google it if you want to learn more)
LEVEL 2 – Two Hand KB Swings

So, let’s say everyone in the group is working out for 40 seconds. Level 1 can do Bulgarian Goat Bag Swings, while those at Level 2 can do Two Hand KB Swings. Everyone gets a fantastic workout and nobody feels like it’s either too intense, or not intense enough.

Even small adjustments like this can make a huge difference in the success of your workouts.

If you find yourself with just a couple or a few kettlebells available for your kettlebell boot camp, don’t worry – there’s still plenty you can do to make the most of it! In my new kettlebell boot camp workouts 2.0 course, I show you exactly how:

–>> How to Lead a Large KB Boot Camp Group with Just a Couple / Few Kettlebells

Here’s one method I teach in the course. You have a group of participants doing a workout consisting of:

• KB swings
• push ups
• KB lunges
• reverse snowangels
• burpees

In a standard set up, each person would need a kettlebell or two that suits their specific fitness level to get this done. If there are 10 participants in your class, this would mean having approximately 15-20 kettlebells on hand.

HOWEVER – if you arrange circuits throughout the room and divide the group into pairs, in this same example, only 2 people will be at each station at any given time. People rotate around the room on a timer, and you would likely only need around 2-3 kettlebells (4-6 in total) to accommodate everyone.

Although this might seem like a basic consideration, little tweaks like this can greatly impact the success of your workouts.

Did you catch the Chiefs game yesterday?

They were looking good, back to top form!

But you know what really stole the show?

Taylor Swift was at the game, and she watched from Travis’ family suite with his mom!

Word around town here in KC is that these two might be an item. Who knows, maybe we’ll see them together again soon! But while we wait to find out, I thought it would be fun to create a little workout inspired by this power couple.

Now, before we go any further, let me just say that this workout is purely fictional and meant for entertainment purposes only. So don’t go thinking Travis Kelce and T-Swift actually know about this, do this, or endorse this in any way! 😉

But hey, if you’re up for a fun and energetic workout routine, grab those kettlebells and let’s get started:

If you’re looking to lose fat quickly, like in our upcoming 20 in 6 Kettlebell Challenge, fundamentally, there are two main things to focus on:

1 – Reduce intake: You need to consume fewer calories overall than you currently do. It’s not just about eating less; we need to choose healthier, nutrient-dense foods and time them around your workouts for optimal fueling. But the bottom line is, we need to lower your calorie intake. We help you do this in a very hands-on way in the 20 in 6.

2 – Increase expenditure: We need to burn more calories than you currently do. This includes doing kettlebell workouts like the one below, adding more cardio sessions each week, and increasing overall activity levels:

#

Kettlebell 20 in 6 – Sample Workout

Do three rounds of the circuit below, resting approx. 1-2 minutes between rounds:

— 10 single arm KB swings per side, start every :45, for 2 rounds (30 total)
— 10 staggered push ups per side, start every :45, for 2 rounds (30 total)
— 30 alternating reverse KB halo lunges (15 reps per side)
— 15 one arm KB rows per side, on the minute, every minute, for 2 minutes (30 total) – add a pause at the top of each rep
— Plank hold with alternating shoulder taps – :60
— Rotating Squat jumps – 1 set of 35
— Sit-outs – 1 set of 30 (15 per side)
— 40 high knees in place

#

A good starting point is aiming for an extra 500 calories burned per day compared to your current level, while also consuming 500 calories less per day. This creates a net deficit of 1000 calories daily, which should result in at least two pounds of weight loss per week.
