The Power of 5 – Exercise 1

(Each month we post a workout – one exercise per week for four weeks, culminating in the entire workout together)

This upcoming workout consists of: 5 exercises,  5 reps,  5 rounds. Do not let the low reps fool you, this is an EXTREMELY taxing workout, as you won’t put the weight down until you do the last exercise in the circuit –  at which point you will rest for 1 minute. All you need is 1 kettlebell! Here’s how to pick the weight for this workout: use the kettlebell with which  you can perform 5 PERFECT reps of the Single-Arm Kettlebell Thruster.

This is a Single Arm/Single Leg workout! Perform 5 reps of all 5 exercises in the circuit with your WEAKER side first (for me it is my left), then repeat for the right. The 1 minute rest should come after completing both sides; if that seems too daunting, it is acceptable to rest for 1 minute between sides. NOTE: You may need to adjust your weight down as the workout progresses.
