8 reasons to do Kettlebell Training (KT):

1. Kettlebell Training is functional – KT includes many whole-body, complex movements where all parts of your body have to work as a co-ordinated unit; every swing, lift or press engages multiple joints and muscle groups forcing the body to work as a synergistic whole. Kettlebells recruit more stabilising muscles and works targeted muscles through a wider range of motion than dumbbells and barbells.
2. Kettlebell Training is versatile and offers whole-body conditioning – it can help you build muscle, lose weight, maintain fitness levels, improve both aerobic and anaerobic capacity, improve mobility and range of motion, and enhance sporting performance. It is also great for working the core as you engage it in almost all lifts.
3. Kettlebell Training is great for fat loss – not only do you burn calories during the workout itself, but metabolism remains elevated afterwards so you burn even more.
4. Kettlebell Training is easy to learn – the movements are simple and can be picked up extremely quickly.
5. Kettlebell Training is fun and varied – KT is quick and enjoyable. Kettlebell exercises are simple, fun and can be combined with other modes of training. You can combine basic drills and movements to create different workouts every time.
6. Kettlebell Training is time-efficient – because you are performing whole-body exercises, you are working multiple muscles and energy systems simultaneously so don’t need to waste time on numerous resistance machines that isolate individual muscles.
7. You won’t ‘bulk up’ with Kettlebell Training – it gives you a lean, toned, and chiselled appearance.
8. You can train anywhere with Kettlebells – you are not restricted to your gym; you can train in your bedroom, back garden, outside, even the beach!
