Hello Debbie, when you can perform 3 x 4 min circuits with a 60 second rest in between you can progress to the next workout the following day.

Hi Neil, when you say hamstring and glute pain do you mean muscle soreness? Deep squats will activate the Glutes and Hamstrings heavily and that’s why you’ll get the soreness. If the pain is only soreness then I would practice without a kettlebell for a while to develop some condition first. Tall people have longer limbs and therefore are at a disadvantage for squatting and deadlifting so you’ll never become a world champ but for lighter loads you should be OK.

Any ideas why? I ‘m tall with long legs.

I’ve been trying for years to squat and never quite got it….but just by loading the heels I am now able to fully squat to the floor! Yay
