Today's swing workout, loosely modeled after the 12 minute "Program Minimum" version was a good one.
If you choose the right bell weight, this can be a very intense workout. Choose wisely:
After mobility drills and a warm-up, set your countdown timer, grab your rope, and get ready to go.
With a 32kg bell, I was able to get 12 rounds plus 5 swings into a 13th round. I was breathing hard, and while form could have been a problem, it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to get.
The biggest thing that happened was that at around round 8 my double unders just started failing. Those things take some skill to do anyway and fatigue just started setting in with my hands - couldn't get the quick turn-around required to get the rope to pass twice in the jump.
After finishing round 8 the problem went away.
The workout details:
- As many rounds in 12 minutes of:
- 10 Kettlebell swings
- 10 Double-unders
