Happy Thanksgiving!
Earlier this week, I put together a Holiday Season Fat Loss Blueprint for you with on How to Avoid Holiday Weight Gain and Beat the Holiday Weight Gain Syndrome with Interval Training
Definitely go check those out. In there, I mentioned boosting your metabolism with multiple short but intense workouts, which is what I’ve done today. I scheduled my nutrition plan to make today a treat day and I’m also hitting multiple workouts in the morning, lunch time and evening.
This morning’s workout routine went like this:
- Pull Ups
- Dips
I did the pull ups and dips in super set fashion, resting as long or as short as needed, trying to complete as many reps as possible in 15 minutes, never going above 5 reps per set.
After a two minute rest I hit 5 minutes of the Turkish Get Up with a kettlebell.
Workout update: Lunch time’s workout was 20 minutes of kettlebell snatches in the following manner.
I performed intervals of 15 seconds of work followed by 15 seconds of rest. So it was 15 seconds of kettlebell snatches with the right hand followed by 15 seconds of rest, followed by 15 seconds of kettlebell snatching with the left hand followed by 15 seconds of rest.
- Kettlebell Snatches (R) – 15 seconds
- Rest – 15 seconds
- Kettlebell Snatches (L) – 15 seconds
- Rest – 15 seconds
Repeat 20 times.
That’s one minute so I completed 20 sets in that manner for a 20 minute workout, with 10 minutes of work and 10 minutes of rest.
I’ll be back with workout number three later on tonight. I have food to eat!
Update: Workout #3
Workout number 3 was a simple routine of 50 burpees. This time I just rested when necessary and kept going to I got 50. Or you can do 4 sets with 1 minute’s rest between them of 20 x 15 x 10 x 5.
Hope you’re enjoying Thanksgiving!

Looks tough, Gregg! How many snatches did you get during that lunch workout?
Hey Joe! I just mentioned that in the newsletter that went out today. I got about 240 reps (120 per arm). I didn’t count every rep by writing them down but I naturally counted them in my head each set as I did them and 90% of the sets I nailed 6, a few had 5 and some 7, so roughly 240 total reps in the 20 minutes.
