Workout of the Week 08/18/18

It is Saturday which means time for the workout of the week! Let's see how much fun we can get into today!

I do the workout of the week on Saturday because as a mom it is the hardest day for me to go to the gym. And I still want to get a good workout in at home, so I've created these at home workouts.

This weeks workout should get the blood pumping. It is designed to be quick but a calorie burner at the same time.

since I don't always have time to do hour long workouts, I try to create ones that are shorter. Even though they are shorter in time you should still be pushing yourself. Take less breaks. Try to do sets unbroken.

With that being said you still need to be smart proper form and technique are important. If you are doing the movements wrong then you aren't actually gaining anything from doing it fast. Sometimes you are even hurting yourself by doing it incorrectly.

Movements

For this workout, you will need a jump rope as well as a kettlebell. I have a 25lb kettlebell but it is designed for whatever weight you have or you can do.

There are small numbers for double unders so if you can string together 5, then practice double unders. If you can't do them, then do double the reps for singles.

The kettlebell swings are supposed to go fully over your head with the bottom facing the sky. One way to describe the top is to have your arms straight up, kettlebell butt to the sky, and then your head pushes through the window your arms create.
