Our first "Coached" program. KB20 is a 4 week kettlebell program where you train alongside, compete with and get coached by athletes & coaches in the MTNTOUGH Lab. This is one of our favorite and most challenging programs to date and all you need is one kettlebell and your pull-up bar.
“With MGD we are bringing workouts from the MTNTOUGH Lab whiteboard straight to you at your house. Every day is new. No overthinking it. Just hit play and train alongside the MTNTOUGH coaches and the community…we are all in this together and you need very little gear. From beginners to advanced, or those looking for 2-3 functional workouts a week to supplement their current outdoor training, this is the best program I have seen to build a stronger mindset and pursue more adventure in your life.”
~ Dustin Diefenderfer, MTNTOUGH Founder
