Double 32kg Kettlebell Workout: Squats, Presses and Pullups

Double kettlebells for a few weeks.

Squats (mostly for flexibility and stability, while recovering from a pulled hamstring).

Double presses supersetted with pullups.

10 sets of 5 week 1.

8 sets of 6 week 2.

6 sets of 8 week 3.

90 seconds rest between sets, in order to reduce soreness and hypertrophy. Working on strength and stability. I'm as big as I need to be.

Today's training:

Double Kettlebell Front Squats (32kg)

8 x 6.… Continue
