Kettle bells
have been around for a few hundred years and have survived among many different
cultures. The main culture they derive from is Russia. Kettle bells have made
their journey into the U.S., post cold war, around the mid 1980′s. Most women
begin with either 8 or 12 kilo where most men begin with 12 or 16 kilo. It
shouldn’t take long to progress to the next size bell if you practice
regularly.
There are 2 general schools of thought when it comes to Kettlebell practice- “Hard Style” and “Girevoy Sport”. We generally practice a blend of both.

Russian ones
are the single best piece of training equipment that will show you the most
muscular strength and endurance, joint stability, cardiovascular strength and
endurance, power, agility, coordination and simply the ultimate overall fitness
conditioning that your body could ever receive. If there is one training piece
of equipment that I can use for the rest of my life and never anything else
again regardless if it was a sophisticated machine, tractor truck tire(for
flipping), cables, ropes, dumbbells, barbells, medicine balls or whatever- the
Kettlebell would be it! They are, simply
put, a tool. There are many tools out there and many roads to fitness. This is
just one of those tools and will take you down a great, great road.
Try to keep
every workout different and constantly changing. You will certainly practice
the same movements, but don’t ever just do the same things over and over. This
way your body continues to change and not plateau. I gave you a good mixture of
things to do in today’s workout. Feel free to expand upon it and practice some
of the things we did intermix with other exercises. Try to keep all strength
training workouts to about 30 min. - give or take. This way your intensity will
remain high. When you stretch out the time intensity lowers and you run the
risk of overtraining.
Sometimes, it
is not the conventional methods that are most effective. Since more and more
people have been getting into the habit of staying fit and healthy, ones options
have democratized even farther. One of the most effective weight loss methods
that is new to the fitness scene is kettlebell training. Though the idea of kettlebell training
isn’t completely new as it has been in the fitness scene, however,
it was not until recently that the use of a kettle bell has been formally
restructured to become a great way to lose weight. It’s always best to find a
professional instructor when training this hard. For instance going to Google
and searching for Crossfit St. Pete or maybe Crossfit
St. Petersburg FL. is
what I would do living in Florida. You cannot go wrong being in the hands of
professional. Crossfit Tecnica is a good one that I’ve found.
Training is not expensive. In
fact, it is something that you can readily purchase and bring at home. All you
need is quality equipment and you are ready to get started on your training.
The most important step is getting the best equipment. Remember
that when it comes to fitness training, equipment must always be considered as
an investment. This means that settling for cheap stuff will eventually take a
toll on the quality of your exercise routine.
