15 PAX showed up for a Back to Basic Training for KB’s. After talking up Twitter for about a week, finding some used KB’s that people had either donated or sold to the cause we had a great turnout. Since we had a large group this morning so we had to mosey on over to “The Ant Pile” so we could have enough room to toss around big bells. There were a few that didn’t appreciate that.

Regular Warm up – NO F3 workout is complete without SSH so we started there
SSH x 20 IC
Little Arm Circles x 10 each way

KB Warm up
KB Twist – 10 IC each arm
KB Simple Swing Front to back each arm x 10 IC
Round the world 10 OYO each way
KB Simple Swing Side to Side each arm x 10 IC
Round the World 10 OYO each way

We did a lot of OYO today as we had both some more advanced KB’ers and then some FNG’s to the KB. And I wanted to make sure everyone got a piece of the action and left satisfied. Great Group this morning

The ladders consisted of 3 rounds with 3 exercises Reps per circuit were 15, 10, 5

Ladder Circuit #1
KB Swing x 15 OYO
KB Goblet Squat x 15 OYO
KB Dead Lift x 15 OYO

Just showing the boys some cool KB exercises that would tax the entire body in hopes that I would get a …”Dang dude, that KB workout killed my _____ I want more”

KB Goblet Squat Jump 3 sets of 5 OYO
KB Turkish Getup 2 sets of 5 each side OYO (planned for 3 but guys were dropping like flies including myself)
KB Lunge Press x 10 OYO each side

All in All it was a pretty good day and the best planned 45 minutes you could ask for.
