Functional HIIT Workout For Building A Lean Physique

Are you interested in building functional fitness while blowtorching a ton of calories within a single workout?
Do you currently struggle to figure out how to maximize your training and results in the most time efficient manner?
Do you enjoy training with kettlebells and implementing HIIT workouts?

In order to build a l lean physique in a time efficient manner you need to incorporate a kettlebell into a killer HIIT workout. Today I’m going to give you a single HIIT workout to elevate your fitness, conditioning, and strength in order to help you build a serious level of physical work capacity.

Functional HIIT Workout

In the following workout you’ll want to get your hands on a single kettlebell and some open flat space to move around. This workout will also require you to have access to an interval timer.

In order to execute this workout I’ll assume your kettlebell swing technique is on point and that you know how to execute a hard style kettlebell swing. I’ll also assume that you’re proficient with how to sprint.

Depending on your individual fitness and ability level you will need to gauge which size kettlebell to use in your functional HIIT workout. I’ll include some general recommendations here below, but again use good judgement to scale up or scale down your intensity based on your individual fitness and ability level.

When looking at the following workout keep a few things in mind. First, when you see two numbers and the “x” the first number listed is referring to the number of sets and the second number is the number of reps to perform. As an example “10×20” would mean 10 sets of 20 reps which would be a total of 200 reps.

In addition to this if you see the word “superset” you’ll also see two exercises listed directly after. These will follow with the designated number of sets and reps. In this scenario perform the first mentioned exercise listed and its designated number of repetitions and then immediately follow this with the second listed exercise and its designated number of reps.

An example would include the following…

Superset:

Kettlebell swings: 10×20=200

Push-ups: 10×10=100

In this example you would perform the 20 kettlebell swings followed by the 10 push ups. This is the superset which is treated like a single working set by combining both exercises. You would continue to perform both exercises back to back for the designated 10 sets.
