Hello Everyone:

Here is a grueling endurance workout that so far, has kicked the butt of all of my clients and me. It's a staple of the war machine style training that you rest include body work or body flow to gain your next training tool, this circuit is not exception.

Place a Kettlebell at point A 50yds away at 45 degree angle a Second Bell (or you run it and run back to your only one) and 45 degrees to that a clubbell.

50 KB Swings - Functional Preparation.

Now using the heaviest bell you can do...

10 KB Snatches Per Arm
Quad Hop to the second Bell.
20 Swings
Quad Hop to the Clubbell
20 Swipes
Hop, (knees to chest) to the starting KB again

Now you are at the the beginning again. How you long you rest should be determined by your goal. How many circuits of this you do, with that short rest is a measure of how far you are coming along. Two to Three Circuits seems to do in most folks within the no rest camp.

As long as all of your gear is far apart, the hops will destroy you, and that final all out power sprint to your starting point is murder.

When you are done and have had enough of this circuit do this to finish.

Take a heavy Kettlebell and a lighter one. Put em at your feet.

Pick up heavy bell by the horns, hold high to chest. Now side step twenty five steps one way to your right. Now back with a left lead to starting point. Immediately pick up the Heavy Kettlebell and do it again. That is one Set Do 3 to 5 Sets and you are done.

Please share your feelings on my War Machine Concepts. I'm planning a video series based on this, and also including more body flow concepts for the inbetween movement. Gaining strength, coordination, endurance and unbound flow is the goal of the War Machine program.

You are the machine...

Unleash Your War Machine.

Jack.

Wow.

I don't own a kettlebell or a clubbell but I can just look at this workout and feel the war. I have read many people speak the praise of the inner-pansy crushing effect of "road-work" type workouts. It appears that you have taken the elements of such a workout and distilled it down to its pure form.

The need to "slow your roll" so to speak during the body-flow movements, as a key of body-flow seems to be the control of your breath in line with your structure, adds a whole new level of complexity. Such a workout would appear to build the ability to drop yourself into a performance zone on demand, a very valuable skill for a war-machine.
