My Morning Workout Today

Recently I have lost a bit of muscle mass due to a fairly hectic schedule and a few days off sick, so I am working hard to put it back on, especially with summer on route. Here is what I did....

3 x 15 Squat Press with 20 kg kettlebell.
2 x 30 Kettlebell swings 20kg.
4 x 10 Chest squeeze press ups - this really burns!!
2 x 10 Round the world with 20kg kettlebell.
2 x 15 Single leg deadlift with 20kg kettlebell.
3 x 15 Pull overs with resistance bands.
3 x 8 Pull ups into my loft!!

Some of you may be reading this and thinking it is not an out and out hypertrophy workout, however it will give you good all over conditioning and some muscle growth without going into the gym and hitting the bench and squat rack.

Remember to warm up and stretch EVERY time you train.

My Training Session Today

The sun was out so I headed to the park with a 20kg kettlebell (a workout in its own right) for a good session and some tanning.
This is what I did:
60 two handed swings
20 one handed each side
20 alternating swings
2 sets of around the world (shoulder death!!)
3 sets of 15 squats with KB held in front of chest
Normal, narrow, wide, offset, and Hindu press ups.
10 snatches each side
30 figure 8's around my legs
10 push-press either side
Lots of sweat..............A fair amount of grunting................Harrassed by dogs wanting to sniff me..........Lots of sun

Perfect!
