After popular request, here’s another 10 for 10, this time with a kettlebell (again reps shortened for video purposes).

With one kettlebell of a decent weight, 10 reps of:
Deadlift > upright row
Clean > thruster (swapping arms each rep)
Halo > squat > tricep press
Gorilla row > high pull
Reverse lunge with twist
Single arm swing (swapping mid air)
Bicep curl
Figure 8 with squat
Plank drag through
Russian Twist

Just the demo on reduced reps had me working up a sweat in a chilly studio so give it a go for a good quick workout!

Short on time? Try this: one bar, five moves, 20 reps. For more spice, add squats, deadlifts and lunges. It’ll wake things up!

FORM OVER BRAWN

I maybe a PT and been training for decades, but you’re never too old or knowledgable to learn. And this is a great example. I’m not a fan of hack squats but I’ve been trying to lean into them (no pun intended) and improve.

In the first video is where I was: feet too high, wrong footwear, footplate not right for me and, critically only coming halfway down - likely owing to concern to get back up.

In the second, my feet are much lower down, I’ve got flatter / less springy footwear, the footplate is angled better and, critically, I’m coming right down for a full stretch…more knee bend = more quads. The weight is completely dropped to get the form right, THEN we build up.

Much better, feels better (or worse if you’re taking into account how f&@*ed my quads feel now!) and has reset my thinking on this piece of kit.

With thanks to for the pointers - my man!

Great article from in yesterday’s magazine regarding five weightlifting myths, debunked. Covering myths such as ‘it won’t help you lose weight’ ‘you need to eat loads of protein’ ‘you have to lift as heavy as possible’ ‘you need to train every day’ and ‘if it hurts that’s good’ she simply breaks these down supported by industry experts. Stuff I tell my clients all the time - very much worth a read!

NEW YEAR, SAME YOU - just BETTER

Our first blog post for 2026 is out and, unlike nearly every other PT or fitness site, we’re not advocating ‘new year, new me’ as that’s often a well worn path to failure: expectations are high and enthusiasm wanes.

No, we want you to be you, but a little bit better. How? Well, that’s what the article is about…check it out at www.motionlabs.co.uk/blogs/news.

Whilst you’re there, check out our fitness guides and training options to help you start your journey for 2026!
