Kettlebells:
Kettlebells date back hundreds of years when they started being used as a form of weight training by Strongmen, weightlifters and wrestlers after that it became a competitive sport in Russia in the late 1940's and has now progressed since then.
The Kettlebell these days is counted as the single most effective way for developing strength and endurance as well as for functional-based training.
Kettlebells are currently being used by the Russian Military and Special Services around the world including the Australian SAS, Navy Seals and S.W.A.T also Police departments, top Olympic Athletes and Mixed Martial Artists and that's only to name a few. The kettlebell is definitely the weapon of choice for producing unparalleled results.
The kettlebell is a cast iron ball with a handle attached to the top. Unlike a dumbbell with a kettlebell the centre of mass is outside the handle, this means that the kettlebell is constantly pulling away from the body. To make up for this your whole body has to compensate and stabilize by recruiting just about every muscle-group in the body to work together.
With Kettlebell training it's all about technique and posture then once you have that accomplished you can then benefit by increasing Cardiovascular fitness, Muscular endurance, Strength & Power. Explosive Olympic lifts are also performed with a Kettlebell, this takes advantage of the positive transfer effect these movement patterns have for athletic and sports specific training, as well as general functional movement patterns that are used in everyday life.
