Mar 8, 20215 Kettlebell Exercise to Incorporate into Your Workout
A recent article from BoxRox.com highlighted the benefits of incorporating kettlebell exercises into your training regimen.
They are especially good at improving your grip, back, and shoulders, which is why Kettlebells are very popular in the Russian military. Russian Special Forces personnel pride themselves on their “wiry strength, lethal agility” and consistent staying power
There is no better way to burn fat than with sets of Kettlebell Swings, Snatches, and Clean and Jerks. These ballistic exercises work your body as one unit and require a great deal of hard work. The harder you work, the more calories you burn. High rep Snatches work more muscle groups and will build strength in the lower back, shoulders, and hip flexors.
Below is an excerpt from BoxRox.com.
