30-30 Interval Kettlebell Metabolic Conditioning Circuit

By Pamela MacElree

I travel a good amount for our Kettlebell Athletics Kettlebell Certifications.  It’s tough to always travel with equipment, so I’m typically left to do bodyweight workouts in my hotel room, but I always have access to Workout Muse and variety of interval training music tracks.  This week I’m away for a week so there’s no skipping workouts on this trip, fortunately I drove, so I was actually able to bring some kettlebells with me (craziness I know!)

Typically I use the 30-30 Mayhem tracks (COMING SOON LATE SEPTEMBER!) as my Kettlebell interval workout music for strength training circuits, however this time I switched it up and made the rest period an active rest period using Kettlebell sling shots.

It’s a 4-5 round metabolic Kettlebell training circuit consisting of

  • Kettlebell Deadlifts
  • Kettlebell High Pulls
  • Kettlebell Romanian Deadlifts
  • Kettlebell Swings

Every time the interval changes to a rest period I’ve subbed in Kettlebell sling shots for active rest.  Use a moderate weight for this one since you have to hold on to the Kettlebell for a full 16-20 minutes.  Holly Rigsby, the Fit Yummy Mummy, thought it was a good workout, I’m sure you will too.

Strength Endurance with Double Kettlebell Interval Workout Music

The very first time I heard a Workout Muse track, BJ was visiting Philadelphia for a mastermind meeting, and a group of us had invaded one of our early morning bootcamp workouts.  At the end of an already tough Urban Athlete Kettlebell workout, BJ decides we need to do a Tabata finisher, and out comes a Workout Muse track.  BJ was right, there was no distraction of looking at the clock, no need to worry if you’ve missed counting a round.  Workout Muse kept even the leading Bootcamp owners in line for their workout! (Plus we all got to experience the energy that BJ carries with him to every workout.)

When Workout Muse started releasing different tracks and different intervals, I was very excited to start using them on a regular basis not only for our client’s workouts but also for my own workouts.  The 30/30 Mayhem track is an awesome rock track that fits perfectly into our Kettlebell workouts.

Kettlebell Interval Training Powered by Workout Muse

When I think of kettlebell training, I get into a mindset
that it's time to lift heavy.  Of course when it's time
to lift heavy you need the appropriate music selection to
go along with your kettlebell training workout. 

The 30-30 Mayhem interval training music soundtrack from Workout Muse
works perfectly as a substitute for our kettlebell training workout
music.  

Additionally, the 30-30 Mayhem track is perfect for workouts
that I do with my coaches.  I plan several workouts a month
with our coaches, so I can make sure they are doing the
kettlebell exercises properly. (more...)
