Here’s a little smoker that will get the heart pumping, a short six minute kettlebell workout which I like to do with a heavy weight, I use 30kg, you should do this with a weight that works for you, medium or heavy.
Three exercises of which two are combo’s, four sets of one exercise, 20 second on and 10 seconds rest.
Quick 6 minute interval workout.
You can use this to get a quick 12 minute workout in, 4 minute warm-up, 6 minute workout and 2 minute stretch, or you can repeat this workout by resting for one minute after a round and then repeat another 2 to 4 times.
