Double the Fun Kettlebell Workouts

By

Hi, guys! Happy Monday! #mondaymotivation

My favorite kind of workouts are ones that are quick and dirty, which means they’re high-intensity and efficient. I make the most of my time and finish the workout feeling like I really challenged myself. When I’m short on time, these types of workouts are definitely my go-to for a heart-pumping, full-body sweat session.

That said, here are TWO high-intensity (and FUN!) kettlebell workouts (one of which incorporates running) that can be done in under 25 minutes or less. And, if you have more time, you can totally tackle them both in 45 minutes. Either way, you’ll get an awesome full-body workout in a short amount of time. Enjoy!

25-MINUTE KETTLEBELL + RUNNING WORKOUT

Set a timer for 25 minutes and then complete as many rounds as possible of the following exercises:

  • 30 Kettlebell Swings (I did American style, but Russian works too)
  • 20 Single-Arm Kettlebell Rows (10 each arm)
  • 400 Meter Run

OUTFIT DETAILS: Mara Hoffman Floral Print Crop Top (blue multi; $29.99)

Crop tops are so fun for summer and super sweaty workouts. This one from Mara Hoffman is supportive in all the right places and stays put, but keeps me cool during my workouts at the same time. It’s perfect for running!

20-MINUTE FULL-BODY KETTLEBELL WORKOUT 

Set a timer for 20 minutes and then complete as many rounds as possible of the following exercises:

  • 20 Kettlebell Swings
  • 20 Push-Ups (not single-arm, unless you want to try – my photographer and I were just having some fun!)
  • 40 Walking Lunges (total – 20 each leg)

OUTFIT DETAILS: Body Language Sportswear Muscle Twist Top (heather grey/black; $35)

How fun is this tank top!? I’m obsessed with the muscle tank style, which is why I selected it for myself, and, of course, I absolutely love the open, twisted back. It definitely keeps you cool while providing some lightweight coverage. I actually think this tank would transition well between my workouts and everyday life. Gym to happy hour? Yes, please!

Happy sweating and shopping, friends!

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

Evernote Review: Your Digital Organization Hub

If you’re looking for a one-stop shop to organize your digital life, check out Evernote! Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
