40 minute Double KB's


Thursday morning I did a little bit of everything...HV snatches, HV swings, some KB swing drills in a beginners class and then to end my workout the only thing left was doubles. One thing I love about doubles is that no set lasts longer than 30 sec, and like my "5 x 6 " workouts, you get alot of work done quickly and without much notice....the attention is on completing 5 sets at a time.


In this variation of a 5 x 6, instead of grouping the combinations in 5's I alternated a 30 sec. combination of, 1dbl swing, 1 dbl clean with the 30 sec long cycle presses. This turned a "5 x 6" into "2 x 5 x 6" , or "10 x 3"...I haven't decided what sounds easier!

2 12kg's

1 sw/1 cl x 8, 30 sec work/rest
cl/pr x 6, 30 sec work/rest
x 5 = 10 min.

1 sw/1 cl x 8, 30 sec work/rest

cl/ push pr x 6, 30 sec work/rest

x 5 = 10 min.


1 sw/1 cl x 8, 30 sec work/rest

cl/jerk x 6, 30 sec work/rest

x 5 = 10 min.


there's a 30 minute workout...but I needed just a bit more. Here's a "2 x 10", 15 sec intervals addition, using all of the above combinations.


1 sw/1cl x 4, 15 sec work/rest

1 cl/pr, 1 cl/pu pr, 1 cl/1 jerk, 15 sec work/rest

x 10 = 10 min.

  4. Judit,

    I've been training 12kg doubles regularly for over one year...it takes time.

    Double 8kg's are tons of fun and I use them for speed and endurance...you need to get some 10kg's though!
