I personally really enjoy the Turkish Get up (TGU) and think the only person who might like it more than me is Corey. Taking on the TGU after getting your heart rate up is always a great challenge. Watch this video from Jeff Martone (He is a great resource for all things kettlebell) for a break down on this movement.
For you zoomers on Tuesday without a rower you can do sumo deadlift high pulls (SDHP) for a minute and divide the number you get by two to equal your calories. Ie 40 SDHP= 20 calories and you will do 20 TGU to complete that round.
For you in the open gym I want you to row for one minute with nose breathing focusing on efficient rowing technique and rest as needed before starting your TGU. You will want to challenge yourself on the weight of these to slow down and focus on solid technique.
Looking forward to coaching this one it is a great workout and will allow us to get more technical.
