Tuesdays workout
Yesterday was the low volume, max weight session, so today was the interval/ max VO2 session. Fifty sets of 8 reps of kettlebell swings at 15 second intervals, so thats 25 minutes workout time. When I get to seventy sets then I’ll switch to the next exercise. I’m increasing five sets at a time and I’m comfortable with that. There is a temptation to do more which I’m sitting on heavily because there is a lot of strain placed on the core with these exercises and I’ve had some twinges in the lower back in previous sessions.
When I started I didn’t think I’d able to even get half way, but towards the end I was still going strong so the last five sets were done at sprint pace, accelerating the kettlebell back down. This did give me more rest time, I will admit but it’s something I’m going to need to do when I get to doing snatches at this pace, which is my goal.
