Josh Koscheck's GSP-beating workout?
MMA kettlebell conditioning circuit

 
 
1. Kettlebell swing, step 1
  • Hold a kettlebell between your legs.


 
2. Kettlebell swing, step 2
  • Explosively extend your hips to swing it up to eye level.




 
 
3. Shoulder-to-shoulder press, step 1
  • Hold the kettlebell over one shoulder.


 
4. Shoulder-to-shoulder press, step 2
  • Press it straight overhead.


 
 
5. Shoulder-to-shoulder press, step 3
  • Lower it to the opposite shoulder.


 
6. Single-arm bent over row, step 1
  • Hold the kettlebell in one hand and stagger your stance so one leg is in front of the other.
  • Keeping your lower back in its natural arch, bend at the hips and lower your torso so it’s nearly parallel to the floor.


 
 
7. Single-arm bent over row, step 2
  • Row the weight to your side.
  • Do 25 seconds on each side.


 
8. Lunge with rotation
  • Hold the kettlebell under your chin as if your hands were up to protect 
you in a boxing stance.
  • Step forward and lower your body until your front thigh is parallel to the floor and your rear knee nearly touches the floor.
  • Twist your torso in the direction of your front leg as far as you can.
  • Alternate legs for 25 seconds.


 
 
9. Core rotation, step 1
  • Adopt a wide stance.
  • Hold your palms together in front of your chest and rotate side to side about 
45 degrees, as fast as possible.


 
10. Core rotation, step 2
  • Keep your elbows in line with your shoulders and your lower body braced — the movement occurs only at the trunk.


 
 
11. Reverse lunge with knee strike, step 1

Step back into a lunge position with 
your hands up to protect your face.



 
12. Reverse lunge with knee strike, step 2
  • Reverse the motion, raising the lunging leg into the air for a knee strike.
  • Drive your knee up high, point your toe down, and pull your arms to that knee’s side as if you were 
driving a knee to an opponent’s head.
  • Do 25 seconds on each leg.




 
 
13. Fighter press-up, step 1
  • Start in the bottom phase of a press-up.


 
14. Fighter press-up, step 2

15. Burpee to boxer guard, step 1
  • Drop into a press-up position.


 
16. Burpee to boxer guard, step 2
  • Explode up and put your hands up by your chin.
  • Move as quickly as possible through each rep.
