I put together a challenge/video as part of the Skins Location Challenge and thought I'd share it with the class I know I don't really train like a lot of the people on here but this is pretty simple so everyone that has access to a kettlebell should be able to give it a go!

"3 Minutes of Hell"

As Many Rounds As Possible in 3 minutes of:
7 Kettlebell Swings (24kg)
7 Burpees

All movements are explained in the video

And if you had a good crack of the whip and wanna post your score to Skins you can access the Facebook app here - http://apps.facebook.com/skinslc/

5rounds + 7swings to beat!

You're fucking going for it son

Might give it a go, i'm assuming its 10 times harder than it looks...! Was that your first attempt, or something you do on a regular basis?

Don't even have kettlebells mate.

I might start swinging the free weights around.
