Kettlebell 10 by Heartrate

Task: Using the 62# kettlebells, maintain muscular strength and endurance by performing 10 repetitions of the following exercises:
  • 4-count Floor Press
  • Clean
  • Jerk Press
  • Clean & Jerk Press
  • 4-count Leg-Lifts

  • Clean & Squat Press
  • Full Body Attack w/Mountain Climber Push-ups

Condition: Given suitable space for execution of the drill, gloves to protect the hands, a weight belt to support the lower back, a heartrate monitor to objectify intensity, and sufficient fluid replacement to maintain intensity.

Standard: Maintain heartrate above 140 bpm for at least 20 minutes.

For the second time in a month I'm in the grip of a nasty cold. Stuffy nose, headache, coughing, sneezing... I would normally do three to five rounds of the above exercises, but I wanted to do just enough to maintain a basic level of muscular strength and endurance. I think I'll stick with this workout for a while but just increase my rounds through the circuit.
