Matt & Rog alternating duckwalk presses with barbell leg raises
Enjoyed (ha!) a workout with fellow trainer Matt Gorton on Monday. We both wanted to play outside our comfort zones so Matt bought some moves from his boxing/MMA background & I threw in some kettlebell sequences, RKC-style.
The resulting fun was:
For starters, 4 rounds of
{10L/10R x weight plate circles 20kg
{10x weight plate clean + press 20kg
{10x super plank
{60-90 seconds rest
Ok, I must admit GMTV doesn’t usually feature high on my horizon, but this week I’ve had plenty of people mention that they did a feature on kettlebells.

To summarise, GMTV revealed kettlebells are the fitness tool of choice for Hollywood’s hot-body A-listers. A suitably cheesy, infomercial trainer put the reporter through a work-out on the beach with a five-pound kettlebell & everybody had a good time. Yay! Hurrah for kettlebells!
Ok, so I’m being glib, but anything that raises the profile of kettlebells in the mainstream media is reason to celebrate, right?
Well…. yes and no.
