Kettlebell Chains

I read a great article this past week on DragonDoor called
"Time Efficiency; seem too good to be true"?
Betsy Collie, RKC Team Leader

In this article Betsy writes about Complexes and Kettlebell Chains.

What is a Kettlebell Chain?

Basically a chain is a group of exercises built on top of each other.

Swing
Swing + High Pull
Swing + High Pull + Snatch
Swing + High Pull + Snatch + Clean and Press
Swing + High Pull + Snatch + Clean and Press + Front Squats

I did a KB chain much like this with my Meet-up group this weekend, the set-up was a
I Go You Go with a partner.

Set 1 - 1 rep of every exercise of the chain
Set 2 - 2 reps of every exercise on the chain etc

I gave them 12 minutes and the highest 1 group was able to get was 3 reps on the chain and they were wiped out!

There is a new book out that implements Kettlebell Chains called
