Simple Yet EFFECTIVE Intensity Tactic

One of my FAVORITE ways to spice up any routine done with a pair of kettlebells (or dumbbells if that’s what you’ve got access to) is performing fundamental movements while loading the weights at different levels. Here’s what I mean. Doing a squat with one in the overhead position and the other in the rack, or one in the rack while the other’s in the anchor (at side)…

This adds a demand on not just the primary movers of the exercise, but your core and upper back too! Ultimately letting you get more work done in the same time window that you do the exercise in…Big boost to training economy!

Here’s a great example of how I do this wrapped into a killer total body “Man-Maker” routine!
