The Kettlebell and Ladder Combination - A Formula For Athleticism!

As an athlete I have always understood the importance of physical training and how it applies to on-field success! These days it doesn't matter what sport you compete in you must be fast, quick, strong and powerful to be successful. For this article I have included 2 drills for you to achieve these very traits with a minimal use of equipment!

To begin, all you will need is an open flat space, an agility ladder, and a kettlebell of moderate resistance. With all three of these ingredients you have just created an environment for success. To begin your hard-hitting athletic performance training program you will first start on the agility ladder. Simply stand in the ladder with one foot in the ladder and the other staggered just outside the ladder. Now rip off a series of high knee runs from one end of the ladder to the other side. When you get to the other side simply switch feet and come back.

As soon as you come back immediately grab your kettlebell and perform 30 double-arm swings! This is where you will figure out that you are truly forging your body into being the total athlete. Permit yourself a minute and thirty seconds of rest before repeating the process. As you get better at completing the speed of the drill and developing speed in the process then you can change what drills you do on both the ladder and the kettlebell.

Remember that total athleticism is built! Hammer away at this evil combination and your on-field performance will drastically improve. Train hard and enjoy friends!

The Ladder and the Kettlebell - A Serious Combo For Superior Athletic Conditioning!

I want to talk about a kettlebell and a ladder drill combination that you can implement in your back yard, at the park, or at your local high school football field to forge your body into a finely tuned conditioned machine! All you need are the obvious ingredients. I would recommend a field ladder that you can fold up when you are finished and a moderately heavy kettlebell in order to execute a sufficient amount of reps to add to the total volume of the workout.

To begin the drill set up your ladder. Keep the iron bell close by. From here the drill is simple. All you need to do is execute a set of high knee runs with one foot in the ladder and one foot outside of the ladder. For instance, start with your right leg in the ladder as you execute the series of high knee runs to the other end of the ladder. When you reach the other end immediately turn around and come back with the opposite leg in the ladder. When you complete a round trip consider this a single repetition.

For optimal athletic conditioning and performance reel off 5 repetitions in a row like this. As soon as you are finished with your runs pick up your kettlebell and execute a series of 30 double arm swings! Give yourself about 2-3 minutes rest and repeat this combination again. As you get in better shape you can alter your ladder and kettlebell drills for more intensity, or just simply add to your number of total sets. This combination is sure to get you into shape!

Take your fitness and athletic conditioning to a whole new level. Implement this little program and work at getting more reps and sets as you progress. Trust me, if you do you will be more than ready for the upcoming competitive season!
