Beginner Kettlebell Workout – South Carolina
Onward with the beginner kettlebell workout series.
In case you missed it I’m a big nerd doing 13 kettlebell workouts geared towards begginners in my state workout series for the states that were the original 13 colonies. Because beginning a new kettlebell routine is symbolic to starting a new country? Ummmm….yeah.
Anyway…
This kettlebell workout is really straightforward and like most of my workouts it relies on basic kettlebell movements because basic movements done with good form and adequate intensity get results. Beginners should always master the basics. Occasionally, I may throw a “new” move in to keep things interesting but for the most part basics is where it’s at.
Beginner Kettlebell Workout
Part A
Kettlebell Presses – 5
Goblet Squats – 5
Kettlebell Rows – 5
Repeat 5x
Part B
Swings
8 minutes using an interval that feels right to you. Most people do well with a 30/30 (work to rest) or a 40/20.
Although this is a beginner kettlebell workout it would be easy to make it more difficult by using a heavy weight or substituting harder moves like bottoms up presses, overhead squats, and renegade rows. Personally, I’m sticking with the beginner moves these next few weeks so I can continue to practice my form.
Have a wonderful weekend!!

This is my (almost) sane quest for insane health. Let's 
I love this series of beginning moves! They look doable!
I don’t have a kettlebell, but I think I may pick one up (since it has been on my “list” for a long time now).
Beautiful location for the video!
I’m so glad. I’m hoping it will be useful to someone. I know it’s always good for me to get back to the basics and practice form!
Thanks for that
I was looking for new kettlebell workouts
Awesome! I’m glad you found my site. In posting a new one each week from a different location as we travel the US in an RV with our kids, dogs, cat, turtle, and, of course, kettlebells. 😉
Love you for this!!! I have a kettlebell and a dvd I very carefully picked out. ( I’m in a location that doesn’t have trainers). They’ve been sitting because the dvd ended up being a bit much (more advanced).
Thank you!
I’m happy to hear this. I just told someone else that I hoped someone besides myself (its always good for me to get back to the basics) would find it helpful.
