There has been a kettlebell training movement over the last few years.
The kettlebell is starting to get recognized by the masses as an effective way to build muscle and strength.
In fact, many professional mixed martial arts fighters from the UFC are discovering the benefits and adding it to their training routine.
But the cast iron weight is also a great way to build endurance and can be used as an effective cardio exercise.
If you want to start training with them, what are the best kettlebell exercises you can do right now? I'll get into the best kettlebell exercises in a second but first, to do these exercises, you'll have to make sure you have two of them.
Working out your body with two instead one will double the intensity of your exercises and results in more endurance and strength as a result.
Because these exercises make you work multiple muscle groups together, you'll feel the effects on your whole body rather than the muscle group you've been concentrating on.
Now let's get in to some of the best kettlebell exercises you can do: The first exercise is a unique exercise that you can only do with the kettlebell.
It's the well-known snatch.
Place the kettlebells behind your feet and make sure you have a good grip on them.
Bend your knees then and your back almost until your head is parallel to the floor.
Then, swing the kettlebells back behind your legs then bring them back up until they are above your head in one motion.
At the peak of the exercise, you should be standing straight up stretched out and hold for a few seconds before bring the weights back down.
The next exercise is called the windmill.
Start by bending down and putting the kettlebells in front of your foot with one arm.
Then with the other arm, clean and press the weight overhead and come to a standing position and hold for 2 seconds before alternating to your other arm.
Keep your legs spread out shoulder length and pointing outwards.
Another exercise is the kettlebell swing.
This exercise is the same as the snatch except instead of bringing the weights up over your head, just bring them up the chest level.
The only other thing is to make sure you go down slowly and hold for a second when you reach your chest.
The last exercise is the squat.
Take both kettlebells and hold them over your shoulder with your elbows facing out.
You should have them stabilized with your elbow.
Then with your legs shoulder length apart, squat down holding the kettlebells.
Make sure you push your lower back and butt out slightly as you are going down.
These are some of the many exercises you can do with the kettlebell.
Getting bigger and stronger with this training tool requires that you do different exercises to hit different parts of your body.
Now that you know a few, you have the knowledge to get started training.
