At the question and answer period at the end of class 2, he was calling on everyone by their first names. He had memorized the names of 30 people he was never going to see again. I brought this up, and he just smiled. Blew my mind .....

      The what the hell effect is a solid thing for sure. I’ve noticed it with rucking, sandbag movements, and hiking while carrying odd objects like a sandbag. The use of the body as a whole, and the continual training of movements and not muscles is a large part. As is the addition of the cardiovascular component, or the metabolic conditioning angle. People get lost In the weeds with barbells and dumbbells a lot more than they do with a knowledgeable kettlebell base. It’s easy to go and do isolation movements with a dumbbell, yet you never see individuals do cleans, or snatches, or any explosive movements with them. The opposite is true for kb’s, you rarely see isolation as it’s such an awkward implement and it sort of self selects away from the bodybuilding sphere

      That's right. I've been forced to try calisthenics because of lockdown and then bought a kettlebell because those were the cheapest weights around. Finally was able to buy a barbell and I gladly saw that despite looking leaner I'm now stronger, which is really badass at 37. I can now shoulder press more weight and reps with the barbell while STANDING than I could SITTING back in february

    I'm a year into my kettlebell journey, mostly concentrating on Simple and Sinister every day. Started at 16 Kg bell, now at a 32 Kg bell. I totally love it. I also have done military presses, carries and more once I own each new weight. Along with proper eating and sleep, I went from 201 lbs to 150 lbs, way more strength, endurance, energy, better mood and more! I'm a firm believer in kettlebells.

    After years of bench pressing, squatting, and deadlifting my body into oblivion, a single 16kg kettle bell has been kicking my ass over the last 6 months. It immediately exposed how weak my core and posterior chain was. I've added a second 16kg kettle bell since which has given me the ability to add a lot of movements to my routines.

People always ask why I only use kettlebells..the secret is it makes you extremely strong, most effective way to build your postering chain, and you have flexible with workouts, range of motion and flows. I'm 6'1 180lb, but deceivingly strong.

    The thing I love about kettlebell training is how you don't have to worry about looking as big as someone else. Barbell training sometimes makes me feel insecure when I see someone with bigger legs or shoulders.
    Kettlebells, it's all about how long you can endure. You of course do grow muscle, but that's not the real goal. In fact, kbs aren't that great when it comes to efficient bulking.
    The real goal is just being better than last week or last month, and for me it's attainable and relatable. You don't obsess about muscle gain or fat loss, but the number of reps or sets you can do in a given time.

    @waynesanders1406 4 роки тому +34

    If you looked at the body like it was an electrical power grid producing energy through electron flow, you'd realize the neuro-electrical demand of doing heavy swings is very high, and like pavel said it works the muscles without killing them. You can do taxing deadlifts, to a point, but I can do kettlebell swings and feel an intense cardio/muscular burning pain that I will never get from deadlifts. You can do heavy deadlifts until you trip the 20 amp circuit breaker at 5 reps, but with something like a KB swing you can go at 19 amps for 20+ reps (certainly not if you're a beginner, but as you adapt). The neural adaptations that allow for that kind of energy output which is all flowing out of the brain down to the muscles is what goes beyond conventional weight lifting that allows someone to go beyond their plateaus in normal physical outputs. You've upgraded from a 15 amp circuit breaker to a 20 amps, and you can run at 19 amps for half a minute at a time instead of 5-8 seconds. I will say that the breathing pattern you learn while doing swings is a huge part of that. You learn to breathe very forcefully as you get better at using heavier weights of kettlebells. I don't do kettlebells until after I've done 25-30 minutes of HIIT and I'm already drenched in sweat. By the time I hit the KB's I'm pretty close to toast since I like to train fasted states only, but those 2-3 sets of swings are killer at 20 reps a pop (ends up being 40 since I do 20 one side and then switch right into the other side, then active recovery with planks). I too am aging towards 20

      I have used mine every other day for two weeks now, and my only regret would be that I did not get started sooner.
      My 15 minute full body workout gives me a simple, sufficiently fun program, that I can do at home. It builds my core muscles, which I now feel burning on a regular basis. Swinging this thing requires more stability than isolated exercises, so I am getting stronger, with a lower risk of hurting myself than with regular training. I feel my posture and body language are already improving as a consequence.

It’s pretty straightforward but just remember this one important step - when you swing up make sure your buttocks are clenched lol that’s how you know you’re doing a proper swing. And trust me you’ll feel it. There’s no right or wrong answer, you can swing it mid length or high above you. It doesn’t always have to be swung that high. Just lifting it is challenging enough. I swing it mid length rather than all the way to the top and doing 100 of that puffs me out. All don’t try doing all 100 in one go (most people can’t) do sets of either 10 or 20 or 25.
