Happy Thanksgiving everyone! We woke up early this morning to get a workout in before the cooking began. If there is anything that will help you make it through Thanksgiving Day without gaining weight, it is revving up your metabolism. We decided to do another Maxwell workout. We did MaxerciseMetabolic300. It is done with double kettlebells at 1/3 to 1/2 of your body weight. Clark used his 36 lbers and I used my 24 lbers. There are different variations to this workout on Maxwell's website, but this is what our workout looked like today:
15 double kb swings
15 double kb snatches
15 front squats
15 double clean and press
15 renegade rows
3 minute rest
15 clean and jerks
15 bent over rows
15 front squats (Clark opts to do overhead squats rather than front squats on these...I say "more power to ya baby!")
15 high pulls
15 crush pushups
3 1/2 minute rest
15 kb thrusters
15 alternating rows
15 high pulls (Clark opts for snatches here rather than high pulls...again "More power to ya baby.")
15 jump shrugs
15 pushups on handles
3 minute rest
10 alternating see saw press
10 kb figure eights (one each side to count as one) into 10 slingshots on each side (this was a change from maxwell's original workout...he called for alternating rows again).
10 maxwell manmakers (clean it, put kettlebells down, sprawl to pushup position, pushup, jump up to start again).
50 meter bear crawl with the kettlebells (maxwell calls for 25 meters). I have a hard time with bear crawls, so I do mountain climbers for the amount of time Clark does the bear crawls.
15 double kb swings
This is probably the 3rd time I have tried this workout and it continues to kick my tail each time I try it! WHEW! It will get the heart going and the muscles burning!
