Birthday workout - don't try this at home

It's Jen's birthday today - a grand 29 years of age and if the old lady in the cafe is right, she doesn't look a day over 40...I mean 20.

Well, Jen - over to you:

Well – it’s my birthday, so as a little treat I thought I’d try a brand new workout!



Equipment used:


16kg kettlebell


A 29 year old birthday girl






OK – so seeing as I’m 29 today, I decided to choose 29 exercise, and do them all 29 times!!


29 exercises, 29 reps of each


So here’s what I chose:-


• KB double arm swings

• Single arm KB swings

• Single arm alternating KB swings

• Cleans

• Snatches

• Long cycle

• Windmill

• Double arm military press

• Stepping lunges right

• Stepping lunges left

• Close arm press ups

• Burpees

• Squats

• Hand step ups

• Split rows (with KB)

• Up dog/down dog

• Mountain climber

• Rotational hip drops

• Single leg rotate and reach

• Leg lift with back reach

• Hip raises

• KB Figure 8 to hold

• Halo

• Round the world

• Static lunge right

• Static lunge left

• Jumping squats

• Stalk stance

• Wide arm press ups



And there you have it – only for the mad and mental to try!!
