Kettlebells

Kettlebells have a lot to offer. Unfortunately, not everyone understands how these round weights with flat bottoms and handles can be used to best effect. They actually provide quite a few workout benefits. Here are some examples to consider.

Increasing Cardiovascular Health

Ballistic exercises are commonly managed using kettlebells. As part of the process of learning to aim, heft, and throw the bells, the heart gets quite a workout. The result is the ability to undergo more exertion without exceeding safe levels, and also recover from the exertion faster.

Great For Strength Training

The bells are usually composed of cast iron or some type of steel inside a protective coating. Being able to lift them, aim at a target, and then toss them any reasonable distance leads to developing arm muscles as well as increasing the muscle mass in the shoulders and the upper body.

Flexibility Training

The exercises performed using kettlebells helps to improve mobility and increase the flexibility of different joints. When used responsibly, they can provide the ideal way for keeping joints like elbow and shoulders supple and capable of quick and easy movement.
