Get In Top Shape in 2 Weeks With This 15 Min Total Body Workout

I guess we all got used to working home during this pandemic times. Almost every average gym goer has at home some kind of minimal equipment, am I right? For this workout we need only a jump rope, a kettlebell and your bodyweight. Are you ready for this?

A kettlebell is a perfect tool for a 15-minute, busy-guy workout. You can do a kettlebell workout in minimal space, and it’ll make you feel more primal than throwing around dumbbells. Plus, a 15-minute kettlebell workout is great for burning plenty of calories in minimal time.

Kettlebells also boasts a few advantages over dumbbells. Picking up a kettlebell mimics the motions of your everyday life, whether it’s grabbing luggage, dishes from a cabinet, or those same things the kids left lying around the house.

There may be some debate as to whether cardio, bodyweight work, or weightlifting is the superior training method, but, honestly, if you’re trying t burn calories you’re best hitting all three. So grab a skipping rope, a medium-weight kettlebell, and tackle this 12-minute AMRAP, in which you train against the clock to log as many reps as possible.

Deploy this every other day and hit peak condition in no time.

Here’s the workout:

Exercise No 1: Jump Rope
