Strength For Women!

What goes up, must come down by IJsselstein 80's Muscle Mom # 3 by edikeskin

Women's fitness can only be successful by having a solid strength training program. Ladies, it is a common misconception that I deal with quite often with women that building strength is more for guys. This couldn't be further from the truth. By building strength you build lean muscle mass and when you build lean muscle mass you burn body-fat and burn a lot of it!

Women's strength training is a topic that I have felt compelled to address more lately because of the questions I have been getting from the female population on strength training. More often than not I encounter women that are interested in kettlebell training and various other forms of strength training, but have expressed to me that they have been hesitant about starting due to the false belief that strength training (especially kettlebell training) would cause them to bulk up and build muscle like guys. Ladies I'm not saying all of you out there think this way, but I am merely addressing the one's that do. Strength training and kettlebell training for women should be the foundation of your fitness program. The truth is that women will not build big bulky muscles like guys. You ladies don't have the same levels of muscle building hormones, like testosterone, that guys have. The women that do have large muscles are women that are either relatively large individuals anyway, or drastically alter their internal hormonal levels with some artificial chemical enhancements. The harder you workout within the scope of your weight training and kettlebell training programs you will be amazed at the level of progress you will make. Trust me, the only thing that will get those unwanted pounds off of your body is some intense work with some kind of resistance!

I have said it before in one of my other articles, if women want big results in their fitness and strength program then they must train like a man! For my hardcore ladies keep up the good work. Spread this message to the other ladies that need to hear it!

Kettlebell Training For Women - A Single Combination Lift That Women Can Perform to Get Super-Fit!

Ladies, if you are looking to step up your fitness regimen and achieve some REAL results then you are going to like your experience with the kettlebell. The cool thing about training with kettlebells is that it is a tool that will forge your body into looking great, but you will also increase your ability of being more functional and athletic at the same time! Check out this single combination lift that I have included to help you with both of these elements.

All you will need for this lift is the availability of a single kettlebell. Gauge your intensity based on your experience of training. Even if you are very experienced with kettlebells a heavy bell is not necessary in order to be effective with this particular lift. The lift you are going to perform is the single-arm clean, squat, press, and swing combination. You are basically performing four lifts all at once. To start, set the bell between your feet. Properly perform a clean bringing the bell to your chest. Next, squat with good form. At the top of the squat, press the bell overhead locking out your elbow and locking your shoulder into place. Bring the bell back down to your chest and simply lower the kettlebell to your groin setting yourself up for executing a series of single-arm swings. Immediately start your single-arm swings and execute 20 repetitions. All of this is done without putting the bell down and with the same arm. Once you finish simply place the bell between your feet and repeat the same thing with the other arm.

Women's fitness has been taken to a new level with this particular drill! Remember to keep your technique sound and keep practicing. Train hard ladies and enjoy!

Kettlebells For Women - A Way to Swing the Pounds Away!

Ladies, the kettlebell is your best friend. As a strength and conditioning professional I promise you that kettlebell training is one of the most efficient ways that you can train your body for optimal fitness and to speed up the entire fat-loss process! I want to explain to you one of the most basic lifts involved in kettlebell training that you can use on a regular basis to achieve a super-fit body.

Kettlebell swings, or more specifically double-arm kettlebell swings, are one of the most basic kettlebell lifts. For you women this is a tremendous lift that incorporates hundreds of your working muscles and up to about 80% of your body's total effort. You can use this lift frequently and learn many other lifts with the kettlebell by making slight variations in this one. Its a building process.

To perform the double-arm kettlebell swing simply set the bell between your feet. Squat down to pick it up. Keep your arms straight and allow the bell to hang at your groin. From here you will want to perform the hip snap motion in order to create momentum with your body to swing the bell in an arc back and forth from between your legs up to your chest level. In order to perform the hip snap you will want to flex and extend at both your hips and knees in a smooth continuous motion. Don't perform a full squat when doing the hip snap. Instead only flex in a quarter squat stance to generate the full motion from your hips.

If you want to swing those pounds away then start this drill by swinging up to about a hundred repetitions with a moderately heavy bell. You will quickly see how effective this device can be. Train hard ladies and enjoy.

Kettlebells - The Female Athlete's Choice For Building Speed!

Poetry in motion by unclesha.

Plain and simple ladies, the kettlebell can build your speed! The key to building speed is to challenge your body by stimulating your nervous system. This is done by performing powerful short intense lifts that cause your muscles to produce maximal force! There is no better tool for allowing you to achieve this than the kettlebell.

Kettlebells are great for working on the development of your sprinting muscles. Your core and your legs both must be strong in order for you to have a powerful sprinting foundation. The key to speed training is that you properly load your body and perform movements that are athletic and dynamic in nature to produce an optimal level of speed. Kettlebell training for women is a great way to achieve this and to also help reduce the risk of injury.

Performing the base lift known as the double-arm swing with the kettlebell is great for developing the muscles of your glutes, hamstrings, quads, and hips which are all essential in propelling your body forward in a maximal sprinting effort. Take the time to implement this ancient tool into your personal program and you will quickly see how much of an edge you will gain by developing your overall female athletic performance.

If you decide to make yourself a better athlete than all of the rest by training with kettlebells then I will even help to make it an easy task for you. All that you have to do is access all of my other articles to get all the information you need on lifts and techniques that you can perform with kettlebells. Train hard and enjoy!
