The Cavemanator Challenge—A Kettlebell Challenge

The Cavemanator Challenge is performed with one kettlebell and involves the following exercises going for maximum reps per arm and only one switch:

  • Clean and strict press (strict for the up phase)
  • Clean and jerk
  • Half snatch

The total amount of reps times weight equals your total score. When posting your score include KG for kilograms and LBS for pounds, M for male, and F for female. For example, 2944KGM, 2944 Kilograms moved and male. 6440LBSF, 6440 Pounds moved and female.

Post your results in the kettlebell training group and hashtag it #cavemanatorchallenge #cavemantraining, on Instagram @realcavemantraining.

No matter your results, post and redo it again 2 or 4 weeks later.
