Kettlebell Thrusters…

One round of:


*6 reps @ 53lbs

*12 reps @ 35lbs

*25 reps @ 20lbs


“The kettlebell thruster is a combination exercise that uses over 600 muscles in the body.


The kettlebell squat is already a huge multi-jointed exercise that requires muscle activation from the legs, hips, core and back.


Once you add the overhead press to the movement then you gain additional muscle activation from the shoulders, arms, upper back and even the chest.


Due to the large amount of muscle activation the thruster becomes very cardiovascular too. The more muscles used during an exercise the more oxygen is required to power the movement.


Driving a kettlebell overhead also requires additional work from the heart in order to pump the blood up and into the top hand.

So the kb thruster is not only a full body muscle conditioning exercise but also great for your cardio as well as being a big calorie burner”. - Kettlebeleworkouts.Com
