Combat Kettlebell Systems

So far, I've only had time to preview the tutorial (23 min) which consists of the MMA moves, both with and without a kettlebell, and Workout 1 (11 min) 3 X 3 minutes.

I did Workout 1 today. I liked it. The only move with which I wasn't familiar was the snake move. They made it look easy but I'm not sure I did it quite right. There was a move called rocking chair which Cathe does on a couple of the Shock Cardio dvds. They did two versions, one where you just come up to your knees (like Cathe) and one where you stand up. I was a beat behind them for both exercises. Cathe must move more slowly than they do because I can keep up with her.

I can tell from watching the tutorial that there are moves that will stump me (rolling around on the floor, mostly) and I'll probably be behind them on those as well, if I'm able to do them. But they looked like fun and I am game to try them! I can see that I'll need a very light bell for the moves where they are rolling around on the floor.

There is a paper insert with the exercises for each workout and suggestions for how to put this dvd in a rotation. This is apparently for MMA students.

I didn't find the menu user friendly. To choose a workout, you have to click on the arrow a few times to make the menu options "scroll" to the side. I'll get used to it, but I think it could have been done better.

Here's the breakdown for Workout 1. Each move is done for thirty seconds and there is a one minute rest between circuits.

Workout 1: 3 X 3 Minutes

Circuit 1:
Swings
Jab drill (left)
Swings
Jab drill (right)
Goblet squat
Rocking chair

Circuit 2:
Swings
Flow drill (left) this is just a jab/cross
Dead clean (right)
Flow drill (right)
Dead clean (left)
Snake move

Circuit 3:
Alternating cleans
Shoe shine (left) this a flurry--uppercuts
Goblet squat/curl/press
Shoe shine ( right)
Alternating clean and press
Rocking chair get up


Workout 2 is 4 X 4 Minutes and workout 3 is 5 X 5 minutes.
