KettelBell - a few reasons why you should exercise with kettlebells


1. By exercising with kettlebells, you improve the appearance of your body.

Many people are afraid that by working out in the gym, they will develop a posture like that of Russian athletes. Practicing with kettlebells we don't have to worry about that - even the best-looking actresses like Jessica Biel, Jenifer Aniston and Kim Basinger perform this type of exercise. Exercises with light ketls are advisable for women, while with heavier ones, for men.

 

2. Training with kettlebells strengthens those muscles that we use in everyday life.

Many varieties of training, only promotes fat burning and does not translate positively into daily activities that require a lot of energy. By training with kettlebells, you strengthen those muscles that are needed in everyday, strenuous situations, such as carrying a baby, putting a heavy backpack on your back or carrying groceries. Lifting barbells or exercises on machines, activate completely different muscle groups that we do not use in everyday life. Regular exercise with kettlebells will strengthen the muscle groups we need most.

 

3. With these, you warm up most of your muscles

Exercises with ketls engage many muscle parts and work them on many levels. For this reason, it is advisable to carry out the first exercises with a trainer. A trainer is also a good option when you want to increase the variety of movements you make. Basic exercises with kettlebells involve simply lifting the weights above your head, performing squats with them, and accidents. In most of these exercises, we do not achieve maximum benefit because they are only performed in one or two planes. An experienced person will tell you how to use the exercises even better.

 

The most important difference between raising dumbbells, and exercises with kettlebells is that with the latter you can not perform shortened, cheated movements. Kettlebells act on muscles in a completely different way, affecting their dynamic load. When exercising with kettlebells, we often have to resist not only their weight, but also dynamic loads. Thanks to this, they shape both large and smaller muscles so quickly. Basic exercises with kettlebells, are also effective, but a better option is to practice under the guidance of an instructor, or at least learn new exercises from the Internet. Training with kettlebells can be very demanding, so it's a good idea to warm up beforehand. In this way, we reduce the risk of injury. Exercises with kettlebells are worth combining with running or cycling, which strengthen the circulatory system and other muscle parts.

 

4. Training with kettlebells helps you lose weight fast

The weights engage all parts of the muscles, so, they accelerate fat burning and speed up your metabolism. During intense exercise, we burn about 20 calories per minute, which means that one hamburger containing 400 calories will be burned in 20 minutes.

 

5. Kettlebells contribute greatly to your strength growth

Most women (especially those who have not trained before), underestimate their capabilities when it comes to lifting weights. Kettlebels allow you to enter the world of exercise without pain, and give you a quick progression when it comes to being able to lift heavier weights. When exercising, you can vary the weight you work with - for example, when exercising your legs, you can use heavier weights, while when exercising your upper body, lighter weights. Thanks to this, the strength of your muscles will constantly increase, without feeling tired or sore. This is especially important for women who have small children and experience muscle pain while carrying a toddler.

 

6. Kettlebells improve your posture

When training with kettlebells, all muscles are engaged, including those responsible for stabilizing the body. With them, you not only burn calories, but also support the health of the spine. Most people who go to the gym, train isolated muscle groups (legs, arms, biceps), forgetting the importance of the invisible muscles around the spine. Exercises with kettlebells allow you to lift heavier weights, thanks to the fact that they shape the internal "corset", responsible for balance and stabilization of the spine. If you don't feel safe lifting the ketel over your head, it means you still need to work on muscle stabilization with a lighter weight. On the other hand, when the exercises are no longer difficult, you can think about increasing the weight.

 

7. Kettlebell workout burns belly fat and shrinks glutes

By training with weights, you simultaneously burn belly fat and shape your buttocks, which visibly improves your figure. An exercise that has an extremely beneficial effect is swinging. In conclusion, doing exercises with kettlebells is an interesting alternative to the gym and allows you to shape the ideal figure.
