Simple & Sinister Kettlebells
The “Simple & Sinister” kettlebell workout, designed by Pavel Tsatsouline, focuses on two key exercises: kettlebell swings and Turkish get-ups. This foundational skill seamlessly translates to key barbell exercises such as deadlifts, cleans, back squats, and beyond.
Phase 1: Kettlebell Swings (5 minutes)
• Perform 10 single-arm swings every 30 seconds.
• Alternate arms for 10 rounds, totaling 100 swings.
• Choose a moderate weight (e.g., 24kg for males, 16-20kg for females).
Phase 2: Turkish Get-Ups (10 minutes)
• Execute 1 Turkish get-up per minute.
• Alternate arms for 10 sets, totaling 5 reps on each arm.
• Maintain a steady pace and focus on form.
Progression:
• Begin with a weight challenging yet controllable.
• Gradually increase weight every week or two for continued growth.
