Warm up with joint mobility, foam roller, and dynamic movement.  Today we are going to do the best bang for your buck exercises there is, in my opinion.  It is a full body movement.  It combines strength, technique, and conditioning.  Long cycle clean and jerks.  We are going to do them in a 2-4-6-8 format with just one kettlebell.  Use the appropriate kettlebell.   Remember, you are going to 100 reps per arm.

Single kettlebell

2-4-6-8 reps L/R arm

Warm up with joint mobility, dynamic movement and foam roller.  Today we are going to change it up a bit and use the clubbells.  They are a great tool, and we haven't busted them out in a while.  Great grip developer as well as another way to stimulate your muscles. Check out http://www.clubbell.tv/ for a comprehensive overview of clubbells and helpful tips should you choose to invest in one or two.

5 rounds
2-3 minute rest in between rounds

20 thrusters
20 pullovers
20 halos (10 R/10L)
20 front swing
20 club crunch

If you don't have access to clubbells, you can do these exercises with a kettlebell, barbell plate, or a dumbbell.

Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today we are going to hit another combo training session with the rower and kettlebells.  If you don't have access to a rower, run, bike, or use a stair climber.  Focus on consistency of effort.  Try and make each interval as the last.  This is an endurance session not a sprint.  By the same token, it is not a jog either.  

4 sets 

Row, Run, Bike 500M

25 (Moderate weight Double Clean and Jerk)

Cool down, have a nice day.. El Rey and Manny always..
