NOTES:
For this workout you will complete 8 Goblet Squats (or air squats) then 8 Ring/TRX rows (or 8 per side bent over rows). Go through that a total of 4 times.
Then rest 1 minute.
Complete that whole thing 3 more times (for a total of 4 x 4 rounds)
The idea for the goblet squats would be to not have to break them up. At least for the most part. So if 8 in a row with weight will be challenging - you may choose to do air squats (no weight). Air squats are also the right choice if you are unable to keep the heels down, knees out, and chest up in the bottom of the squat! No plopping!
Hold your KB at the chest. Feet are shoulder width apart with the heels down. Stand tall and tighten your belly. Reach the butt back and down while driving the knees out. Keep the chest lifted and belly tight. Keep going down until the butt is lower than the knees. Do not allow yourself to collapse, round your back, or plop at the bottom. In the bottom position the heels should be down, knees out, and chest up!
To stand, lead with the chest- keeping the KB tight to the body. Stand fully for each rep.
For the ring/TRX band rows - remember that the more parallel to the ground you are - the more difficult these become. Start with the arms straight at the bottom and pull your body all the way up to touch your hands. Keep the body position tight. Squeeze the belly and the butt. You may also do these with a bar in the rack.
If you don't have bands or a rack to do these with - you may do 8 reps single arm bent over row right, 8 reps single arm bent over row left instead.
