This is a regular burpee, only holding on to a medicine ball the whole time. Squat down, placing medicine ball on the ground in front of you, carefully jump back into a plank position, jump back up to squatting, then stand up and jump with your arms (and medicine ball) in the air. I used a 6lb med ball.[/su_box]

This is hands-down one of my favorite exercises. Start with kettlebell down between your legs and, using your arms as a pendulum, swing the bell to slightly above eye level by thrusting with your hips while keeping your core tight as you stand up straight. Swing back down and repeat. Multiply the round by 2 for your rep count (during the first round, you’ll do 10×2= 20 reps). I used a 25lb kettlebell.[/su_box]
This reverse pyramid workout took me just under 30 minutes to complete. Try to beat my time and let me know how you do in the comments section. A little friendly competition always helps me push myself just that much harder.
