One Bell Workout #2

This video shows another example of a one kettlebell workout. Please note that I am 32 weeks pregnant at this point.



Progression:
Do 4 Rounds on each side.

Right Hand:
Turkish Get-up (up only)
Overhead Front Lunges (right foot only) 5 reps
Snatch with Slow Lower to Racked Position 10 reps
Overhead Front Lunges (left foot only) 5 reps
Turkish Get-down

Rest if needed and repeat with left hand.

Progression can be done with back or walking lunges also.

If you don't know how to snatch the bell yet, see previous post for our upcoming Snatch Workshop on March 21st.

Snatch Workshop

HeadSTRONG Athletics will be holding a Kettlebell Snatch Workshop this coming Saturday, March 21st, at 10:00 am. Location will likely be Hugh McRae Park depending on the weather. Please call Shawn for more information: 910-231-5011.

The snatch is a ballistic movement used for strength endurance. In other words, be prepared to get your heart rate up and build strength at the same time.

Here is a short video of the snatch done by Yoana Snideman (also pregnant when taken):
