So I get REALLY bored with weightlifting and admit I hop around from program to program a little too much. The only gym nearby me that also works with my schedule is a Planet Fitness (terrible, I know) and while it is better than nothing I hate going in there. The highest weight the dumbbells go to is 60lbs, same as with the pre-loaded barbells, and there are no squat racks or bench presses, just smith machines.
I've used kettlebells (I have a few at home) off and on, but all the KB workouts that I've found (especially from places like Onnit) have workouts that are like, 5 different exercises for 5 sets of 20 or some crap like that. So boring. I'd rather have two or three exercises and workout like a madman to get through them. Get in and get it over with. I'm 38 and do BJJ for 3-5 days a week also.
I literally just started this Pavel Tatsouline program called "Simple and Sinister" where all you do is:
Will I actually get stronger with this KB workout? I can complete a workout in about 10 minutes. Or should I go back to throwing around sandbags at home like I used to?

- Week 1: 5 sets of 10 KBS per arm THEN 5 sets of 1 TGU per arm
- Week 2: 6 sets of 10 KBS per arm THEN 5 sets of 2 TGU per arm
- Week 3: 7 sets of 10 KBS per arm THEN 5 sets of 3 TGU per arm
- Week 4: 8 sets of 10 KBS per arm THEN 5 sets of 4 TGU per arm
- Week 5: 9 sets of 10 KBS per arm THEN 5 sets of 5 TGU per arm
- Week 6: 10 sets of 10 KBS per arm THEN 5 sets of 5 TGU per arm
