I followed this up with 10 minutes of 16kg kettlebell snatches without putting the kettlebell down, alternating hands every 60 seconds.. I got 210 snatches in 10 minutes. Sometimes I like to figure out how much work that is by multiplying the number of reps by the weight of the kettlebell.. In this case I moved 7392 lbs in 10 minutes.. I'm working my way up to where I can do this exercise with a 24kg kettlebell. This is actually known as the Secret Service Snatch Test.
After the snatch test, I did two sets of 5 Turkish Get-Ups on each side with a 24kg and followed that up with a set of an exercise I call a Back Press with Shoulder Opener that would be difficult to explain so I added a video of it.. Make sure if you're trying this exercise you start with low weights. You really work the range of motion in your shoulders and it puts the kettlebell in a precarious position above your head where you definitely need to be able to control the weight.
All in all, it was a fantastic workout and it was completed in about 45 minutes. To re-cap:
- 10x50 jump rope doubles (5x fwrd and 5x bkwrd) with 30 secs rest between intervals
- 10 min 1 arm snatch with 16kg for 210 reps
- 2x10 Turkish Get Up with 24kg (2x5 on each side)
- 1x10 Back Press with Shoulder Opener with 16kg
