Hang Clean + Sumo Squat
Tones your booty and legs.Begin standing with feet slightly wider than hip-width apart, toes pointed outward, holding a kettlebell in both hands. With a flat back and core engaged, hinge at the hips, bringing the kettlebell toward the ground. Then, explode back up to standing, driving through your heels, and bring the kettlebell up to chest height. In one continuous motion, sit your booty back into a sumo squat, thighs as close to parallel to the ground as you can get them, knees over ankles. Come up to standing and repeat. Do for 60 seconds, rest for 15 seconds.
Kettlebell Jumping Jack
Sculpts your legs, core, and arms, and boosts your heart rate! Standing with feet together, hold a kettlebell in both hands at chest level. Jump your feet out wider than hip distance apart as you simultaneously press the kettlebell overhead. Jump your feet back together as you lower the kettlebell back to chest height. Pick up the pace, landing softly and keeping your core engaged. Do for 60 seconds, rest for 15 seconds.
Kettlebell Drop Squat + Pulse
Targets your booty and legs, and revs your metabolism. Begin standing with your feet together, holding a kettlebell in both hands at chest height.
