Description
Kettlebells are a great varied way to burn fat and increase core stability and flexibility.
Burns Fat in Less Time
By use of the Peripheral Heart training (PHA), the entire body is trained. The idea is to provide uninterrupted blood flow throughout the body while taking no rest between sets, similar to circuit training. you will be doing 4 times the work, in shorter time frame.
Displaced Centre of Gravity
The kettlebell's centre of gravity is 6-8 inches below the centre of your hand. Barbells and dumbells centre the weight with your hand. The offset of the kettlebell makes is "alive" in your hand and increases the difficulty and benefit of many of the drills. Kettlebells can do anything a dumbell can do, even better in fact, but not vice-versa.
Variety and Versatility
Your workout's variety is only limited by your imagination and safety. One Kettlebell, two Kettlebells and combination drills provide unlimted protection from boredom. Kettlebells can be used anywhere. It is basically a gym in one hand and provides you wiht a total body workout.
Balance of Tension and Relaxation
Tension is a strength, relaxation is a speed. An athlete must balance both to maximise skill. Kettlebell training utilizes a balance of tension and relaxation.
Trains Hip Extension and Deceleration
Ballistic Kettlebell drills provide an intense load to the hips and buttocks. Very similar to the vertical leap, this "grooved" hip extension transfers to many athletic skills such as jumping, running and throwing. Similarly, deceleration occurs when throwing and catching the Kettlebell behind you - your muscles contract together to produce force reduction and deceleration of the weight.
