The Best Shoulder Exercise Period!


Shoulder workouts for mass, power, and resiliency must without a doubt include single arm overhead snatches. By now you may have heard the ancient kettlebell and understand that this strength and conditioning device has been around for centuries. Not only is this device great for your shoulders, but it is top notch for your overall fitness!

The single arm overhead snatch is a dynamic lift that is a "hybrid" in nature. In other words, it is great for both muscular power and muscular endurance. This single lift will help you to develop superior core strength, hip power, leg strength, and tremendous shoulder stability. You see this lift is very different and much more hard hitting than traditional body part specific lifts. 

Kettlebell lifts manipulate muscular movements rather than specific muscle groups. The overhead snatch is done by you lifting the bell from either the ground or between your legs up to a held position above your head in one smooth movement. This is accomplished by you implementing a technique in kettlebell training known as the hip snap. The hip snap is performed by you having to forcefully flex and then extend at both your hips and knees in order to create the necessary power to lift the kettlebell to a pulled position lateral to your head. Once the kettlebell is at this lateral position to your head the snatch lift is completed by you vertically punching your palm towards the sky. Once you "punch your palm" you should lock out your elbow and suck your shoulder into the socket. This is tremendous for developing your deltoids, traps, and lats! Your shoulders will never look the same.

If you haven't taken the time to include the kettlebell snatch or other more basic kettlebell lifts into your personal strength and fitness program then you are missing out on something huge! Take the time to learn the proper techniques involved with even the most basic lifts. Once you do this your workouts will significantly improve. I will even challenge you by asking you to access the rest of my articles on the matter for free. Remember that anyone can train hard, but only the best train smart!

Killer Body For Women - The Absolute Best Upper Body Workout For Women in a Single Exercise!


Upper body strength training for women tends to spur a lot of misconceptions on how women's bodies develop when working out. Questions pop up relating to whether or not women will get big bulky muscles, or a manly chest. These are not true for 98% of all women and for the remaining 2% the rules don't apply because they are getting outside help from some chemical enhancement or other outside agent anyway. Check out the following single exercise that is the best for helping you to develop great upper body muscles.

I would like to introduce to you the overhead kettlebell seesaw press. This particular exercise is a tremendous upper body exercise for women. To perform this exercise you will have to have a pair of moderately heavy kettlebells of equal weight. Yes, you can do this with dumbells, but kettlebells present a different challenge and much more involved effort when it comes to overhead pressing.

If you don't believe me then simply attempt lifting the same weight dumbell and then a kettlebell of equal weight and you will quickly see what I am talking about. To perform this upper body exercise, stand and properly clean both kettlebells to your chest. Next, press one bell overhead. The next step is very important. As you lower the first kettlebell press the second bell before the first is at rest. There is no pause between presses. This presents a much different challenge when doing this with the kettlebells and your muscular endurance is challenged unlike anything else you have ever tried. Try to perform 5 to 8 alternating presses with the kettlebells in continuous fashion.

If you don't think this upper body exercise is good for women then you haven't been working out the way you should have been. Remember ladies that anyone can train hard, but only the best train smart!
