The Ultimate Functional Workout
Time to unlock mental toughness and physical results with the ultimate tool for extreme all around fitness. Kettlebell training will enhance any training environment increasing;
- muscular balance
- muscular strength
- endurance
- flexibility
- cardiovascular health
- explosive power
- proprioceptive balance
- coordination
- weight loss
This highly effective and efficient workout originated at the dawn of strength training as counterweights in Russian markets. When the markets closed farmers would swing, toss, and juggle these round, cast iron weights for entertainment and exercise. Kettlebells were used from generation to generation, becoming part of the culture and the peoples means for physical fitness. Also referred to as Givrevoy sport or Givevik training.
.
The appeal of kettlebell training is gaining in popularity among a wide variety of demographics. Kettlebell fitness is delivering results in Any-Gym-USA, among athletes of all sports, and the average Joe just trying to get in shape. This cost efficient and portable gym can be used at home, when traveling, or you can take it outdoors.
Kettlebell training involves functional exercises that emphasize the bodies natural ability to move in three anatomical planes of motion. These movements will mimic and convey to daily activities and sports. Life doesn’t happen in the isolated planes used in a traditional body building regimen or on a standard resistance training machine that isolates one muscle group. In addition, we sit in cars all day, at the desk, on the couch, so it’s not a great idea to train sitting in a machine with a back rest. Kettlebell movements work several muscle groups at once, focusing on core strength.
.
The benefits of a kettlebell training program are tremendous;
1. Improved muscular balance and joint stability
2. Increase Core stability
3. Improved neuromuscular coordination
4. Save time working several muscle groups at once
5. Improve your posture
6. Prevent injury
7. Improve balance
8. Workout anywhere
9. Sport specific training
10. Endless variations force your body to acclimate
Implement a regimen designed specifically for you. Seek the guidance of a “qualified” fitness professional. Program design should include; a review of medical history, posture, body fat assessment, blood pressure, goals, lifestyle choices, etc. Remember there is no generic blueprint for a workout program. Each individual should have a customized plan. Get down to it, figure out what is really going on, make the right changes. Remember to schedule in proper nutrition and significant rest for recovery.
