Chapter 1: Swinging Back to the Past
Before we hit the turf and get all sweaty, let’s take a history-laden jog down memory lane. While they might seem like a trendy new fitness accessory, kettlebells, or ‘girya’ as they were originally called, hail from 18th century Russia. Amazingly, they were initially used for weighing crops, but it didn’t take long for folks to realize the potential of this weighty tool for building a rock-solid physique.
Chapter 2: Your Core and More – The Basics
Now, I know what you’re thinking, “Why do we even need a kettlebell core workout?” Well, I say, why have a jelly donut when you can have a glorious filet mignon from Nicole Melillo?
Jokes aside, the core remains one of the most overlooked areas in most people’s workout regimes, which is a huge misstep. It’s where all your body’s movement originates. So, if you want to look great and function even better, we gotta make that core as strong as possible, folks.
A kettlebell core workout targets your abs, obliques, and the muscles in your lower back all at once. Talk about efficient!
