Self KB Upper & Back Workout

I am super happy that LBKC allows me to use their equipment even when I am not taking the class. I feel like a kid got thrown into a candyland! Well those colorful KBs resembles colorful candies, right?

But these are killer candies that will give me strength instead of sugar!

So I put together my own workout, focusing more on upper and back.

2 Rounds:
  • 3x Turkish Get Up (each side - no switching) -15lbs. KB
  • 30x KB Swing (used 35lbs KB then 44lbs. on 2nd round)
  • 5x assisted pull up (used thin green band)
  • 10x KB Goblet Squat (35lbs)
  • 12x Military Press (each side) - 15lbs. KB
Rest 1 minute

3-5 minute Snatch Practice (about 10 reps each arm - 15lbs. KB)

Then I saw this crazy big KB (48kg = 105lbs) and couldn't help to do some deadlifts!

2x5 Sumo Deadlift (105 lbs.) - That was only 5 lbs shy from my 100% bodyweight! I was planning to do 3x5 but I think for now it was enough. My quads start feeling it now.

Post WO snack: steamed 4 egg whites + 1 serving Green Vibrance mixed with my cold tea.

GOOD WORKOUT!!
