A little fatigued today so I threw together a quick but efficient workout. I had to get something in because I will be out of commission for the next two weeks - I am having a small inguinal hernia fixed tomorrow. I won't be allowed to do much besides walk until it heals up a bit. The main portion of the workout was a 12 minute EMOM of the Armor Building Complex (ABC) Double kettlebells (16 kg) - 2 cleans, 1 press, 3 squats Then as a finisher I did 14 goblet squats on the slant board using a 20 kg bell (this made an even 50 squats), 10 pull ups, and 5 minutes of jump rope. See y'all in a couple weeks. 💪

Did an oldie but a goodie today. I think it's another one I got from Lebe Stark. I did all movements with a 20 kg bell. Round 1: 25 reps Two pump burpee Clean and press R Clean and press L Round 2: 25 reps One pump burpee Goblet squat If you are keeping track that is: 50 burpees 75 pushups 25 clean and press R 25 clean and press L 25 hand to hand swings (you have to switch hands to do the second clean and press) 25 two handed dead cleans (you have to pick the bell up to do the goblet squat) 25 goblet squats Great stuff, definitely recommended.

Today I did the burpee long cycle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ks-lDaNY2xg I used two 16 kg bells and I did 25 reps. As a finisher I did 25 one pump burpees and 10 pull ups. Quick and effective.

I did the kettlebell man maker complex today: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/IoQgUMwGV48 Pushup to Renegade Row R Pushup to Renegade Row L Double clean to Thruster. I did 10 of those with 16 kg bells and my finisher was: 10 pushups 20 goblet squats (1 bell) on the slant board 10 double half snatches 1 minute static double kettlebell overhead hold

A lot of us here are faced with having to train in tight time windows. Whether that be because of kids, business, or whatever, it puts us in a situation where we have to make the decision to go DEEP or WIDE with whatever workout we do. In other words we can go DEEP into a single body part or single movement, doing just that for the 10-15 minutes that we have to train…Or we can go WIDE with a more well rounded total body approach. Me personally, I’m big on avoiding the creation of imbalances, so I always urge my clients who consistently face these time availability conundrums to go WIDE and train total body. Not only does it have the tendency to help you avoid creating muscle imbalances, but it also helps to make you move more synergistically given the nature of total body movements that I advocate for WITH these types of workouts. Here’s a great example of one that I just shared on YouTube.
