Hostyle Conditioning - Class - Kettle Bell - Craziest one yet!

Tonight we did some kettle bell action. I was feeling a little bit tight in the lower back, but I gave it my all...

Here is the crazy workout

Standard WOD

Phase one

5 minutes of 1/2 Turkish get ups
Basically doing sit ups while holding a kettle bell over your head.

2 minutes of Kettle bells swings, started with 24kg, have to drop to 16kg lol!

Phase 2

Double kettle bell moves... these are crazy, take some standard kettle bell moves, and double them up!

Double clean and presses 2 16kg bells 4 reps for 4 rounds, just get them done, no rests
Double kettle bell squats 2 16kg again, 2 rounds of 8 reps
Double bend over rows, 2 16kg, 2 sets of 8

Basically 8 squats, into 8 bent over rows, repeat, no break.
These were really tough, adding the extra Bell was crazy!

Phase 3 (rediculious)

I will probably mark some stuff down wrong, since we did so much...

1st round
L hand snatch
L hand swing
L hand clean
30 seconds of each! No break! LOL... crazy

Then
R hand snatch
R hand swing
R hand clean
Same 30 seconds of each straight

30 seconds of Planks (our so called break!)

The trainer said it was a little aggressive, so we changed it up into...

30 seconds of each
L handed snatch
R handed snatch

30 second break

30 seconds of each
L handed clean
R handed clean

30 second break

30 seconds of each
L handed swings
R handed swings

2 rounds of the above... Yeah, I know, not much for a break... still just as challenging. I used the 16kg bell for all of the moves mentioned.

Just to make it crazier, the last round of swings was actually a full minute of alternating swings.

Another class down, I am going to stop typing now, as my hands and arms are dead tired.
