"Jerk Werk"- Double Kettlebell Complex

Double kettlebell complexes? For faster fat loss, they’re really hard to beat. (Combined with a smart caloric deficit, of course.) Really. They can also pack on lean muscle, and do a superb job of developing overall general conditioning, making you fit for most of the things life throws at you. (Well, maybe not wrestling bears…)

Well-designed double kettlebell complex workouts can take as little as 7-15 minutes, depending on how many double kettlebell exercises you include in them, and how many rounds you do.

Using this double kettlebell complex for faster fat loss will be challenging – it’s called “Jerk Werk,” and is based around the double kettlebell jerk. If you don’t know how to perform the double kettlebell jerk (or any jerk), simply substitute it with the double kettlebell push press. It’s almost the same, it just requires less coordination and won’t jack your heart rate up as high.

Here are the workout details:

(Make sure you’re using a 10+ rep max for your double kettlebell jerk.)

Double Kettlebell Clean x5

Double Kettlebell Jerk x5

Double Kettlebell Front Squat x5

Double Kettlebell Jerk x5

Week 1: Perform 3 sets.

REST: Beginners, as needed; Advanced, Work: Rest = 1:2-3*

*Work: Rest = 1:3 means time yourself performing this double kettlebell complex workout. Then rest 3X as long. Example: It takes you 1 minute to perform. Rest 3 minutes before doing another round.

ENJOY!

A lot of people want to know what the “best” kettlebell exercise for this, that, and the next thing is.  Honestly, a lot of it depends on –  [+]  Your goals  [+]  Your exercise history  [+]  Your injury history  [+]  What you’re actually willing to do  When we look at “fundamental” human movements –  What we’re “made” to do, we see the following:  Push  Pull  Squat  Bend  Lunge  Twist  Walk  There’s probably a “best” exercise for you for each of these patterns.  Some examples:  Push – Push ups, bench press, military press  Pull – Chin ups, pull ups, rows  Squat – Goblet squat, KB squat, barbell back squat  Bend – Deadlift, KB Swing, Clean, Snatch  Lunge – Lunge, Turkish Get Up  Twist – Rotational chops & lifts, 1H Swing (anti-twist/rotation) Gait – Walk, Jog, Ruck, Run  Most traditional total body workouts – including KB workouts –  Include at least 3 or 4 of these patterns and they typically use one exercise per pattern.  But what if you don’t want to spend the “normal” amount of

Double Kettlebell Exercises — The Strong! Program

Image
There are three various training cycles within the "Strong!" program. The first is an 8 to 12-week block that trains your strength, based upon your 4 repeating maximum (RM), keeping the variety of repeatings low-- between 1 and 3-- and the variety of sets high. Rest between sets is "... as necessary ..." with the objective being "... to make each and every rep." Auto-regulation at its heart. Sounds noticeably comparable to EMOM A+A (every minute on the minute, alactic + aerobic) procedures from Strong Endurance ™, doesn't it? The second cycle trains work capacity and/or hypertrophy. It has two variations: the "Short Course" and the "Slow and Steady." The very first variation has you double your beginning volume in 4 to 6 weeks. The second, is more merciful, and spreads it out over 16 to 24 weeks. Both are created to make your old 4RM starting weight feel like a toy. However, because its objective is to develop muscle mass and/o
