Stand with your feet shoulder width apart, both hands holding the kettlebell in front of you.
Active Recovery for 15 seconds
Keep moving by marching in place or step touch side-to-side.
Stand with your feet shoulder width apart, holding the kettlebell with one hand at shoulder height.
Keeping weight in your heels, squat down, without letting your knees go forward past your toes.
Rise, and simultaneously press the kettlebell straight up, until your arm is fully extended overhead.
Bring the kettlebell back down to return to start.
Keep moving by marching in place or step touch side-to-side for 15 seconds.
Return to standing while performing a kettlebell bicep curl with the hand currently holding the kettlebell.
Repeat the movement in the opposite direction, and continue.
With your core tight, begin moving the kettlebell in a clockwise direction.
Repeat for about 10 seconds in one direction, and then switch directions for about 10 more; continue.
Slowly reverse the movement to lower back to start.
