Who it’s for: Regular gym-goers who want a structured conditioning session with a kettlebell, a box and a medicine ball.
An EMOM (every minute on the minute) gives you a fixed amount of work at the start of each minute and the rest of the minute to recover. Here the minutes rotate through three movements: kettlebell swings, box step-overs and wall balls, six times each.
Choose loads that let you finish each minute’s work in 30 to 40 seconds. If you finish in under 25 seconds, go heavier; if you can’t finish inside the minute, go lighter or take a few reps off, and keep the rhythm. Swing the kettlebell to chest height, driving from the hips rather than lifting with your arms.
What the session involves
- A short warm-up, twice through
- EMOM 18: 15 kettlebell swings, 10 box step-overs, 12 wall balls, rotating
