Link in bio if you’re looking to get into KB training but don’t know where to start. I’ll send you a full week of training from my 8-week kettlebell training program—on me. All you need is one kettlebell, 30 minutes, and 6 rounds to build a body that’s lean, strong, and athletic. If you’re a busy parent who wants maximum results in minimal time, save this workout. One of my favorite parts of this complex? The Goblet Squat + Deep Curl. As you explode out of the squat, you’re training triple extension—your ankles, knees, and hips extending together to produce force. It’s the same movement pattern you use to sprint, jump, climb stairs, hike, and chase your kids around the yard. Strength is important, but power is what keeps you athletic. 6 Rounds • 10 Goblet Squat + Deep Curl • 10 Crush Press Hold Thrusters • 10 Swings • 16 Ballistic Rows (8/side) • 10 Push-Ups 🏋️ Weight Used: 20 kg / 44 lb Weight Suggestions 🏋️ Beginner: 8–12 kg (18–26 lb) 🏋️ Intermediate: 16–20 kg (35–44 lb) 🏋️ Advanced: 20–28 kg+ (44–62+ lb) Choose a weight that challenges you while allowing you to complete all 6 rounds with great technique. Start lighter than you think, master the movement, then increase the load. Scaling Options ⬇️ Make it Easier • Complete 3–4 rounds instead of 6. • Perform a standard overhead press instead of thrusters. • Replace push-ups with incline or knee push-ups. ⬆️ Make it Harder • Increase the kettlebell weight. • Slow the lowering phase on the goblet squat and ballistic rows. • Rest only as needed while maintaining great form. Movement Cues Goblet Squat + Deep Curl: Squat deep, curl under control, then drive explosively through the floor. Crush Press Hold Thrusters: Crush the sides to create full-body tension from start to finish. Swings: Snap the hips and let the bell float. Ballistic Rows: Explode the weight, then control the lowering phase. Push-Ups: rigid from head to heel.

Transcript

This is a brutally effective kettlebell complex, full body. One kettlebell, 30 minutes, six rounds. Build a body that's lean, strong, and athletic. This will humble you. Start each round with 10 goblet squats plus deep curl. Keep your body tall and sit deep into the squat. Then curl the kettlebell before standing. You'll notice that I'm exploding up through my legs after each curl. I'm doing this for two reasons. Number one, it teaches your nervous system to recruit muscle fibers faster. Because power isn't just about how strong you are, it's about how quickly you can produce force. This movement pattern, it's called the triple extension. Your hips, your hips, knees, and ankles extend as you push through the floor. Triple extension is the same movement pattern your body uses to sprint, climb stairs, chase your kids, or lift something heavy off the ground. Athletes train triple extension. And now that you know, you'll start seeing it everywhere and realize it's behind almost every powerful movement your body makes. Including this next. Performing 10 thrusters in a crush press hold. Your grip will start to strain at this point. Remember to hold that belt tight through every rep. Drop that bell down, but do not let go. We're moving into 10 swings. This is a hinge, not a squat, snap those hips, squeeze those glutes and let that bell float to shoulder height each rep. We're bulletproofing our posterior chain, building conditioning and teaching our bodies to be explosive. And to not just create force but control it. Strong muscles can create force, but athletic muscles know how to create it, stop it, control it, and then create it again. Your grip finally finds relief. Drop that bell down and we're performing 10 kettlebell push-ups. Fight for every one of these reps. Do your best to touch your chest to the bell each rep. You completed 1 round. And just like that, you completed 1 round. Rest 2 min between rounds. 6 rounds total. Link in bio for a free week of kettlebell training.
