I want to first start off by giving thanks to all my followers and people that have supported me in the past years. The next few months will be huge for Combat Trainer. Every year around this time people’s diets start to drift and extra pounds are packed on. Don’t let the holiday season kill a years worth of hard work in the gym. Now we all know Thanksgiving is a day in which majority of us will be eating non-stop all day. Most experts will tell you to go for a nice brisk walk after your turkey day dinner. That may be fine to get the blood flowing again but there is no way you are losing all the calories that you have just put into yourself.
Now i understand that there is not a lot of time to train on a holiday, but I am here to give you a nice short training session that will not only help build muscle but will also allow you to burn calories and allow yourself that extra piece of Sweet Potato Pie. The first training session that you can do that will crush those calories and at the same time turn you into a beast is a variation of the Litvinov Workout. You may have read about some of these workouts in previous posts and boy do they get the job done. Now the video you will see below is the Litvinov using a hundred pound kettlebell. Yes, I know you may not own a kettlebell that size but you may own a smaller one or even a pair of dumbbells. Since the kettlebell is a heavier one you will only see me swing the bell for a handful of reps. If you have a lighter bell you can swing for up to thirty reps.
Now you are not just swinging the bell and stopping, after you are done swinging you must drop the bell and take off in a full speed sprint. How many sets you may ask, well if done right between four and five sets will be good enough and then you can call it a day. This short training session will help develop power as well as burn off calories during and after the training session and allow you to give a little extra thanks at the dinner table.
Happy Thanksgiving!
