By Chris Rivers


If you were to watch someone using a kettle bell while working out, it may seem like a difficult and intimidating workout. However, with a second look you will find a workout that is not only great for your body, but actually fun to do. Kettlebell workouts are a total body workout that allows you to work on your balance, your flexibility, your strength, and your cardio with every session.

Activation of your core musculature is achieved by kettlebell exercises. This includes your back, abdominal, glutes and hips. Due to this developed strong and active core several injuries are prevented, which guarantees the good health of your spine in the long run, and makes your body movements more efficient. Exercises such as swings and its variations, are high rep workouts, increasing your heart rate and thus pushing the boundaries of your cardiovascular endurance. Therefore, following a workout which focuses on these exercises can prove to be a great benefit.

When you do kB exercises your core muscles are pushed to perform better as they need to work repeatedly for longer periods. Due to this your body attains better muscular endurance which is necessary for good posture during workouts. There are several injuries, pains, aches, that are saved due to better posture while training. Also due to the amount of resistance that your body has to endure during a workout your body gets stronger muscles. Plus while doing kettle bell exercises your body goes through weight bearing and this helps you in strengthening your bones. There are several diseases like arthritis and osteoporosis, that are prevented by doing weight bearing exercises.

Training like this involves you holding the Kettle bell with your hands and doing a full range of exercises most of which are unique to this form of exercise. A combination of different swings, presses, squats, twists and pulling motions are all part of good kettlebell workouts. Many of the individual moves use all the major and minor muscle groups to complete just one single repetition. Some exercises need power from both your hips & legs to lift the weight thus giving your whole body an integrated movement which is unavailable in other forms of exercise, this increases your cardio output and helps shed fat and calories quicker.

Of course if you are using a kettle bell for weight loss you will also need to eat a balanced diet for best results. Diet is a whole different and diverse subject altogether and way to vast to cover in this article but I can highly recommend reading "Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle" it is a fantastic guide to diet and way more accurate than others I have come across online. Whats more it comes with a no quibble guarantee unlike most other weight loss systems and it also works perfectly whilst doing regular kettlebell workouts.

So in conclusion due to the variety of exercises in the kettlebell workout schedules, the fast result it gives and the endurance of those results for long period of times, these exercises are becoming popular for workout enthusiasts these days.
