Kettlebell Training has been around for hundreds of years. Some say it stems from Russia where they were first used by them for athletic prowess and warrior training. But some say that the Greeks first challenged the Kettlebell thousands of year ago. But the Chinese may have first started using kettlebells known as 'Padlocks' which were rectangular in shape to help compliment their fighting skills-Kung Fu. But today athletes,The Russain Military and Hollywood stars are using the F.O.R.C.E. of this excellent strength and conditioning tool.



Kettlebell Traning has largely become so popular in the UK due to the ever growing popularity of Kettlebell Coach Jamie Lloyd and World Champion Vasilijs Ginko.

If you want to get fantastic results then you will feel the F.O.R.C.E. of this ultimate training tool unlike no other!

F = Fun. You will not get bored with Kettlebell Training. As the kettlebell comes in various sizes 9-88lbs you will not get bored! You will get a phenomenal workout in under ten minutes! You may toss, throw or juggle the kettlebell around your body.

O = Offset handle means that you will have to engage your core to control the force of the kettlebell. The handle creates a secondary lever arm which forces you to brace your abdominals throughout every exercsie-this is so that you have to absorb the impact of the bell when doing 2 arm swings for example. When you "absorb" the kettlebell when throwing it behind you the agonists and and antagonists must work together to reduce the force of the bell and slow down the weight....known as decelaration. This can be seen when we walk, jog or sprint. Therefore unlike traditional weight training, kettlebell training helps you train acceleration and decelaration which will help you move better for everyday life.

R = Range of movement. Kettlebell Training allows you to train in full range over a joint from full flexion to full extentsion or from full adduction to full abduction. as the kettlebell allows you to go through a full range of movement, this means that the flexibility is promoted over the joint and balance and integrity is maintained. Exercises like Windmills are fantastic as they allow you to stretch out the hamstrings whist helping you to stabilise the glenohumeral joint and retractthe sacpulae and even strenghtn the torso at the same time.

C = Core Control. The Kettlebell forces you to maintain the structure of the spine, pelvis and torso know as the core. By creating a belt by using abdominal pressure we are able to strenghten our core stabilising muscles so that we can lift heavier kettlebells or more weight. Therefore using abdominal pressure to our kettlebell training will add strength to your training and give you rock hard abs.

E = Energy Expenditure. The typical energy expeniture of a Kettlebell workout will exceed 800 cals which is more than a Pizza at your restaurant. Or better still it is more productive than running on a treadmill, doing traditional weight training at your local gym. Try a set of 10 minute of snatches for real living proof.
