For the past few months, this is what I've been doing... I'm about to switch up, though, because I'm getting tired of it. First off, all of mine are in a reverse pyramid. I start with lowest reps and heaviest weight first (after warming up). Then I move backwards into higher reps and lower weights. I've been able to increase strength, get excellent cardio, and burn lots of calories through this method, which is what I told the trainer who gave it to me that I wanted.
Day 1: You cycle quickly through each exercise. So first circuit would be : 2 rows, 5, pushups, 2 squats. Rest then 3 rows, 10 pushups, 3 squats, and so on.
Kettlebell Rows: 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, 15
Kettlebell Pushups: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35
Kettlebell Front Squats: 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, 15
Same circuit technique as described above:
Burpees: 5, 10, 15, 20
Scissorjacks: 20, 30, 40, 50
Day 2: Do entire circuit below 3 times.
Turkish Get Ups: 1, 2, 3
Weighted Pull Ups: 2, 3, 5
Weighted Reverse Lunge: 2, 3, 5
Day 3: Do entire circuit 3 times. Circuit is done on one arm first, Then other arm. So all exercises below would be done on the right arm. Then switch to left arm. Then move on to the next set of reps.
KB Snatches: 2, 3, 5
KB Presses: 2, 3, 5
KB 1-handed swings: 10, 15, 20
So I'd do left arm 2 snatches, 2 presses, 10 swings. Then right arm. Then move to left arm 3 snatches, 3 presses, 15 swings. Then right arm. Do the entire circuit 3 times.
Those are my three workouts. I just cycle through them and try to get 5-6 days a week in.
