Minnetonka Community Education

In 30 minutes you can get a great workout. This course works on fundamental movements: Push, Pull, Squat, Hinge, Press. We take these movements and add load in the form of kettlebells to improve strength and conditioning.  Kettlebells are great for both cardio and strength, they use every muscle from your feet, calves, hamstrings, glutes, lats and shoulders. They increase the strength of the posterior chain of muscles (if used correctly) that improve posture and accelerate us. Come learn how to use these weights optimally by a certified kettlebell instructor.

Begin with mobility prep work, stretching and warm up to improve range of motion, then move on to practices that focus on increasing core, and grip strength and improving the range of motion in our joints. We squat, push, pull and press in these workouts.Tabata, EMOM (every minute on the minute) and AMRAP (as many reps as possible) are some of the workout formats used The practice focuses on good movement first and foremost, and then we add weights in the form of a dumbell you choose and bring to class. Lastly, we focus on recovery with lacrosse ball rollouts and bands for stretching.
