Turkey Day

Took yesterday off.
I read a study that said doing complexes consisting of 3 exercises for 10 reps and 4 sets in a circuit format will increase your metabolism by 20% for the following 38 hours. The exercises were Squat, Power Clean and Bench Press. In preparation for eating a lot, I met Eddie at a local park and did the following this morning:
15 min of joint mobility
Workout with 24kg Kettlebell, 5 reps, 4 circuits.
Windmill l/r
Squat
Bottoms up Clean l/r
Snatch l/r
Military Press l/r
2 minutes rest
.......
After 4 sets we set up a swing circuit and set the Gymboss on 15 seconds.
24KG 15 seconds switching hands every 2 reps
15 Seconds Rest
16KG 15 seconds ballistic style 2 hand
15 Seconds Rest
20KG 15 Seconds switching hands every 3 or 4 reps
Rest 15 Seconds
...
We did the swing circuit for 30 intervals or 15 sets of about 10 reps.
...
Ready to eat the turkey now (and maybe some dessert)
