Pushing weights while keeping the heart rate high!
This session develops your aerobic fitness and the ability to sustain high-intensity effort for longer. The workout is performed with two kettlebells but there is also scaling for working with one. The first task is intense, but not as intense as the second task, followed by long active recovery and mobility work. Then the tasks are repeated for a shorter period of time and fewer reps.
Heart Rate Results
The actual workout time was 22 minutes and 10 minutes were spent on active recovery and mobility. During the workout, I spent 17% in the green zone, 40% in the yellow zone, and 44% in the red zone. My average BPM was 149 and the highest was 169. the 10 minutes of active recovery were spent in the green and yellow zone with the lowest BPM being 125.

Programming
Pick the weight(s) based on 50 to 60% of your 1RM chest press. On the second go at the AMRAP, you will most likely have to drop weight by 15 to 20%.
Drop in weight is allowed, just make sure to record your reps at what weight.

Scaling
The exercises are not very complicated, there are only 3 exercises in total, two are with double kettlebell and the third is the CrossFit burpee. Use one kettlebell instead of two kettlebells.
Reduce the total working time for each AMRAP and continue improving until you have completed the full prescribed time with the recommended weight percentage of your 1RM.
