WORKOUT OVERVIEW

This full-body kettlebell workout targets muscular endurance and conditioning through squats, rows, swings, push-ups, and reverse lunges. The circuit combines lower-body work with both upper-body pushing and pulling. Use a load and pace you can repeat across all four rounds without losing control.

Who this workout is for

People familiar with resistance training who want a moderately demanding full-body circuit. Prior kettlebell swing experience is recommended; Romanian deadlifts are the alternative.

Equipment and substitutions

One kettlebell or dumbbell. A mat is optional. A stable bench or counter can be used for elevated push-ups. Choose a weight you can move comfortably without rushing.

Move through the exercises below to gradually raise your activity level and practise the movement patterns used in the workout. Start gently and increase your range of motion as you feel ready.

Complete each movement for 50 seconds, with 10 seconds to transition between movements. The preset includes a 10-second preparation countdown and finishes after the last movement.

ADJUST THIS WORKOUT

Make It Easier

Use a lighter weight and the supported or elevated alternatives listed with each exercise. Three rounds give a main circuit of about 15 minutes, or about 25 minutes including the warm-up and cooldown. Change the timer to 15 intervals before starting.

Make It More Challenging

Keep the same intervals and increase the weight slightly when you can maintain good control throughout all four rounds. Change one variable at a time.

Equipment Substitutions

Use a dumbbell for squats, rows, and lunges. Replace kettlebell swings with dumbbell Romanian deadlifts. A stable bench or counter can support rows or elevated push-ups.

What To Record

Record your weight, exercise variations, and whether you completed four rounds. Next time, aim for the same controlled pace before increasing the load.
