Kettlebell Training has been around for hundreds of years. Some say it stems from Russia where they were first used by them for athletic prowess and warrior training. But some say that the Greeks first challenged the Kettlebell thousands of year ago. But the Chinese may have first started using kettlebells known as 'Padlocks' which were rectangular in shape to help compliment their fighting skills-Kung Fu. But today athletes,The Russain Military and Hollywood stars are using the F.O.R.C.E. of this excellent strength and conditioning tool.
Kettlebell Traning has largely become so popular in the UK due to the ever growing popularity of Kettlebell Coach Jamie Lloyd and World Champion Vasilijs Ginko.
If you want to get fantastic results then you will feel the F.O.R.C.E. of this ultimate training tool unlike no other!
F = Fun. You will not get bored with Kettlebell Training. As the kettlebell comes in various sizes 9-88lbs you will not get bored! You can workout the whole body in under ten minutes! You can even juggle, spin, throw the kettlebell and pass it hand to hand.
O = Offset handle means that you will have to engage your core to control the force of the kettlebell. The handle creates a secondary lever arm which forces you to brace your abdominals throughout every exercsie-this is so that you have to absorb the impact of the bell when doing 2 arm swings for example. When you "absorb" the kettlebell when throwing it behind you the agonists and and antagonists must work together to reduce the force of the bell and slow down the weight....known as decelaration. This can be seen when we change dierction in sport and even in everyday life walking. Therefore unlike traditional weight training, kettlebell training helps you train acceleration and decelaration which will help you move better for everyday life.
R = Range of movement. Kettlebell Training allows you to train in full range over a joint from full flexion to full extentsion or from full adduction to full abduction. As the kettlebell allows you to perform a movement in full range of movement in an excercise, this means that the balance and integrity over the joint is maintained and flexibility is promoted. Exercises like Windmills are fantastic as they allow you to stretch out the hamstrings whist helping you to stabilise the glenohumeral joint and retractthe sacpulae and even strenghtn the torso at the same time.
C = Core Control. The Kettlebell forces you to maintain the structure of the spine, pelvis and torso know as the core. Using abdominal pressure we are able to tighten the belt around our body (multifidus and transversus abdominus) to help stabilise our core so that we can lift more weight. Therefore using abdominal pressure to our kettlebell training will add strength to your training and give you rock hard abs.
E = Energy Expenditure. The typical energy expeniture of a Kettlebell workout will exceed 800 cals which is more than a Pizza at your restaurant. Or better still it is more productive than running on a treadmill, doing traditional weight training at your local gym. Try a set of 10 minute of snatches for real living proof.
Feel the F.O.R.C.E. today and get Kettlebell Training!
