Yesterday work went long, and I had a meeting coming up with little time to workout.  I had about 15 minutes to squeeze one in, and this is what I did.

Equipment:  53 lb. and 70 lb. kettlebell

Warm up: Swings

Round #1: 53 lb kettlebell snatches.  10 snatches every 30 seconds for 5 minutes. 100 reps total (50 with each arm)

Rest: 3 minutes

Round #2: 70 lb. kettlebell snatches.  8 snatches every 30 seconds for 4 minutes. 64 total reps (32 with each arm)

Tips for building your own 12 minute workout:

•Increase intensity

•Focus on Complex (multi-joint exercises) – Snatch, Burpees, Clean and Jerks, Squats, Thrusters…

•Limit rest

Give this a try and let me know what you think.  Comment with your favorite variations.
