My version of the "strength aerobics" thing has become my go-to for days (like today!) when I want to do some training, but have had a stressful week/crap sleep/etc. Super simple, and while I'm not sure what it does or is good for, it feels like you're doing something without killing yourself, and maybe that is good enough.

My version at home is 28k, and I do both sides at the top of each minute without putting the bell down (six total reps).

That's not a 10-rm kb for me (probably more like 6-7), and I don't rest between hands. Using a bell as light as suggested in the original article and resting between hands seems like it would require a much longer effort than I want to put in in order to feel like you have done anything. That said, if it is meant to take the place of an aerobic session, maybe 45-60 minutes is "supposed to be" how you do it, even if the original article offers shorter lengths of time as suggestions...
