Kettlebell at the Y by ymcapdx


If you are looking for some exercises to gain muscle then you have arrived at the best place possible! Kettlebell training is a style of training for guys and girls that want to build bodies to stand out in a crowd. If you are serious about your fitness and you don't mind turning some heads then the following 2 exercises are just for you.

1. Dual Kettlebell Man Makers: Now ladies don't let the name of this exercise turn you off because it is great for you too. This is a serious exercise to burn fat and build muscle for you better than anything. To execute this drill you will need a pair of kettlebells of equal weight. Place the bells between your feet. To start the lift properly clean both kettlebells to your chest and then immediately set them back on the ground about shoulder width apart in length. Now the next part is very important. Make sure that you don't remove your grip from the bells. As soon as you set them back on the ground perform a squat thrust while stabilizing your body on the kettlebells. Kick your feet back behind you placing your body into an upright push up position on the kettlebells and then immediately thrust your feet back up underneath you to stand up and clean the bells to your chest once again. Continue this process for about 10 reps with a pair of moderately heavy bells.

2. Dual Kettlebell Seesaw Presses: For this exercise you will once again need a pair of kettlebells of equal weight. To start properly clean the bells to your chest. Next, hold one bell at the rack position and press the other one overhead. Now as soon as you start to lower the first bell began pressing the second bell before the first bell is racked at the resting position. You are essentially pressing both kettlebells here up and down in continuous motion, hence the name seesaw press. This is a sure workout to build lean muscle and strengthen your shoulders as good as anything. If you want to optimize your workout to help you lose fat and gain muscle more quickly then combine this drill with the first drill mentioned in this article. Remember that anyone can train hard, but only the best train smart my friend.

A Kettlebell Hard-Body - The 3-Step Workout to Get Your Body Jacked!

Ray (Kettlebells Aberdeen) by Chris Henderson Images

In order to get your body ripped and to achieve an optimal level of fitness then you must incorporate kettlebell training into your fitness and strength program. If you are looking for a workout that is simple in nature to understand, yet will get you some serious results then you will like this 3-step plan.

Step 1: The Duel Bell Overhead Walk: For this drill you will need a flat open space and two moderately heavy kettlebells. To begin, mark off a distance of about 50 yards. Next, clean and press the bells above your head and walk the 50 yard distance. The key is to make sure that your shoulders are locked into the sockets and that you keep your elbows locked into place. Maintain tightness throughout your trunk in order to stabilize your core. This is a great drill to start your big fat-loss workout. When finished rest for 2 minutes and move to step 2.

Step 2: Duel Kettlebell Squat and Press: As you finish the first step rest no more than the allotted 2 minutes. Next, grab the bells again and execute a clean, squat, and press for 20 repetitions. Be smooth and aggressive in getting your reps done. Once finished rest for 1 minute and move on to step 3.

Step 3: Kettlebell Bear Crawls: For this drill you will need to use half the distance (only 25 yards) as you used in step 1. Get into an upright push-up position with your hands on each kettlebell. Next, perform a bear crawl lifting each kettlebell off of the ground and moving your body forward primarily using your upper-body. Bear crawl the full 25 yard distance before stopping. Completing all three steps will significantly boost your fat-loss progress. For beginners, try to complete 5 rounds of these three steps. You will get jacked!

23.365 Jen Morris by fizzbucketCIMG5815 by alizinha/CrossFitNYC

I would like to say that if you have the availability of a couple of kettlebells and you enjoy training with this ancient device then this is a great couple of drills for you to implement into your program. To promote weight-loss, fat-loss, and superior cardiovascular conditioning you have to increase your level of perceived exertion. The kettlebell is one of the best tools for doing just that! Read and enjoy.

1. Swing/Deadlift Combo: This drill actually consist of a couple of different exercises that utilize a couple of kettlebells. To start this drill you will want a couple of bells of moderate and equal weight. Start by setting the kettlebells between your feet. From here you will just simply want to execute a series of swings with both kettlebells (one in each hand). For the purpose of this article shoot for 20 swings. Immediately after the swings place the bells back on the ground between your feet and execute 20 deadlifts (or squats) by picking the bells up off of the ground and locking your hips and knees out, and then placing them back on the ground.

2. Clean, Squat, and Press: This lift is pretty well described in the name. Simply begin by placing the bells between your feet. Squat down and grab both bells and perform a duel clean. The bells should be resting at your chest. From here simply keep the bells in front and perform a squat. Once you lock out a full squat then press both bells above the head. After all three movements place the bells on the ground between your feet and repeat the process. This is tremendous for building your core strength and getting you total cardiovascular conditioning!
