Hylete C3 - Magnesium Challenge

Okay "Thermopyletes", there is a challenge from a brand named Hylete called the C3 Challenge.  The first one is called the Magnesium challenge.  If you parents would like to participate in the challenge it is a fundraiser where Hylete will donate based on their performance (at no cost to them).  They can register at: Hylete C3 Challenge


It includes the following three exercises:
Kettlebell Goblet Squats (12 Repetitions)
- kettlebell held in hands at chest level; squat must break parallel/butt below knees; top of squat has knees locked out.


Jump Rope (48 Repetitions)
- feet leave and return to ground at same time; rope passes underneath both feet.


Russian Kettlebell Swings (12 Repetitions)
- kettlebell travels to eye level


Each exercise is called a "terminal", each group of terminals is called a "loop".  You need to complete as many loops as possible in twelve (12) minutes.




Weights for each exercise are based on grade.
