45/15 Circuit Training Workout {Video + Workout Post}
byJenonAugust 5, 2014
It’s been forever since I’ve shared a workout with you guys. It’s not that I haven’t been programming them nonstop for my clients but it’s been difficult to carve out the time to get them ready for you in the way that I like to. But today is your lucky day! I have a new circuit style workout to share with you that I think you’ll really love! I tested it on two of my favorite, most hardworking clients yesterday and they gave it two thumbs up! It’s a great blend of strength and HIIT.
This is a circuit training style workout with five stations where you perform 45 seconds work and 15 seconds rest as you move to the next station. Here are the five exercises.
Ring (or TRX) Rows
Step Ups
Kettlebell Swings
Wall Balls
Supine Toes to Bar (hold on to anything you have available as you bring toes up over head)
I made a video demoing all of the exercises. I know that can be a lot more helpful that pictures for many people.
Please let me know if you have any questions or feedback if you try it. Happy sweating!
I want to share a workout format with you today that I sometimes use when training clients or programming circuit classes. It's called "4-3-2-1" and provides a good cardio strength workout that keeps you moving and sweating. Here's the basic breakdown of how it works. 4 minutes of cardio -…
The last time you heard from me was Monday morning then I blinked and it was Friday morning and I'm just getting the opportunity to sit down and write this post. I have been working on the elements of it for two days but kept getting pulled in different directions…
Hola and happy Friday! I know that many of you are gearing up to celebrate Cinco de Mayo this weekend. I'm pretty pumped for a Mexican feast of my own in Chicago tonight. I promised you a weekend workout and this one is all about the high intensity cardio to…

I’m loving this workout. My WOD the other day was very similar to this.

I am excited to try this workout! Love your outfit!! Thanks for the video (they are very helpful)! One question, do you do four rounds of the first exercise then rest one minute, then four rounds of second exercise, or do you complete each exercise for 45 seconds and then rest and then repeat that four times?

First, I have to say I LOVE your workouts! I’ve worked in your dumbbell superset workout into my half training plan and I love it. Hurts so good.
Second, I have a question on kettlebell swing form: Every time I perform these, I try to squat so my thighs go parallel (or lower) before using my hips to thrust the kettlebell upward and over my head. In the video, you don’t use much of a squat. Are there just variations of kettlebell swings that work different muscles? (aka, should I switch it up and not squat as low sometimes to work out other areas of my body?) You’re my exercise guru so I thought I’d ask. Thanks for any information!
