The Only Way You Can Get in Shape is to Stay Accountable and On Track

Staying accountable and on track is crucial when it comes to getting in shape. It's not just about following a diet plan or going to the gym regularly, but also about making sure you're consistent with your workouts and tracking your progress. That's why we're excited to share this 8-minute AMRAP (As Many Reps as Possible) workout with you, which will help you stay accountable and on track.

The Workout

This workout consists of three exercises: kettlebell swings, reclined pulls, and kettlebell squats with the kettlebell in the rack position. You'll start by setting a clock for 8 minutes and doing as many reps as possible within that time frame. Our first exercise is the American kettlebell swing.

Kettlebell Swings

American kettlebell swings involve swinging the kettlebell all the way over your head, keeping your chest up and squeezing your butt and quad to generate power. You'll do 12 reps of this exercise, focusing on proper form and technique. To perform an American kettlebell swing correctly, start with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold the kettlebell with both hands at your hips. Swing the kettlebell back between your legs, then up to chest height, using your hips and legs to generate power. Keep your chest up and your core engaged throughout the movement.

Next, you'll move on to reclined pulls. You can do these exercises with rings or a bar, such as a smith machine bar or a squat bar. Reclined pulls are an important exercise for building strength in your upper back and lower back. To perform a reclined pull correctly, start by holding the kettlebell with both hands at shoulder height. Pull the kettlebell up towards your chest, squeezing your shoulder blades together and keeping your body in a nice plank position. Keep your hips up and engaged throughout the movement.

After completing 12 reps of reclined pulls, you'll move on to kettlebell squats with the kettlebell in the rack position. This exercise is a great alternative for those who can't do a barbell back squat. To perform a kettlebell squat correctly, start by holding the kettlebell at your hips and standing up straight. Lower yourself down into a squatting position, keeping your back straight and your knees behind your toes. Push through your heels to return to standing.

The Workout Continues

Once you've completed 12 reps of kettlebell squats, it's time to move on to the final exercise: an up/down with kettlebells. For this exercise, you can use heavier kettlebells than some of the other exercises. Start by holding the kettlebell with both hands at shoulder height, then bring the kettlebell down towards your knees, using your hips and legs to generate power.

Tips and Reminders

Throughout this workout, make sure to keep your body in a good position and focus on proper form and technique. It's also important to listen to your body and rest when needed. Don't be afraid to ask questions or seek guidance if you're unsure about any of the exercises.
