kettlebel conditioning for judo

[shouldercharge]

ok i train muay thai,judo.and mma.

judo is my main competitive focus at the moment.
how does theis circuit look?

at the moment my main weaknesses are core,grip,shoulders and chest.
how does this circuit look.

1)kettlebell suplexes (start in clean position clean the bell then throw it behind you.
2)1min plank
3)kb weighted sit up
4)hip swings
5)lying leg raises
6)kb circles stand upright hold the kettlebell above you with both hands kb inverted and circle it(good for core and grip)
7)kettlebell snatches alternating arm
8)burpies

each exercise done for 1min with a sprint in between and 3mins in between sets,3sets.

or would a kettlebell 300 circuit be better then doing some sprints after.

1 The exrcises don`t really follow one another so it`s going to be difficult to keep flowing though the circuit.

2 What does your "chest" do in judo? How did you find that`s a weakness? Judo and grappling in general are all about pulling so I find it hard to believe your chest is holding you back since it`s usually involved in pushing.

3 Judo is done mostly upright so if you need core strenght look for exercises you can do while standing.

4 In any case the duration and intensity of the circuit are more important that what exercises yo do.

5 Do you lift at all?

If I had a kettlebell that was big (and therefore expensive) enough to produce any sort of useful training effect with this sort of exercise, I wouldn't do anything to that bell that would risk shortening it's lifespan. And where are you throwing it? Other than something like sand, it seems either the surface will be destroyed or the kettlebell will...they don't have a lot of give...
2)1min plank
3)kb weighted sit up

OK, that's 4 "core" movements in a row.
6)kb circles stand upright hold the kettlebell above you with both hands kb inverted and circle it(good for core and grip)
Doubtful.
7)kettlebell snatches alternating arm
8)burpies

You're making this FAR too complicated. Including sprints, that's a 9 exercise circuit. 4 of those 9 movements are ab/"core" exercises. C'mon, man

Why don't you just pick one or two real exercises, like swings, snatches, or clean and presses, and focus on doing those well?

Agreed. A real simple complex that I like to do goes like this.

One kettlebell

Snatches
Jerks
Clean and Jerks

Level 4 1 minute each hand rest 30 seconds
Level 5 1:30 each hand rest 2 minutes
Level 6 1:30 each hand rest 1:30 minutes
Level 7 1:30 each hand rest 1 minutes
Level 8 1:30 each hand rest 30 seconds
Level 9 2:00 each hand rest 2 minutes
Level 10 2:00 each hand rest 1:30
Level 11 2:00 each hand rest 1 minutes
Level 12 2:00 each hand rest 30 seconds
Level 13 2:30 each hand rest 2 minutes
Level 14 2:30 each hand rest 1:30
Level 15 2:30 each hand rest 1 minutes
Level 16 2:30 each hand rest 30 seconds
Level 17 3:00 each hand rest 2 minutes
Level 18 3:00 each hand rest 1:30
Level 19 3:00 each hand rest 1 minutes
