Several Fitness Tools to Take Your Kettlebell Training to the Next Level

Here at Kettlebell Krusher, I usually only discuss products directly related to kettlebells or accessories used with them. However, as I've come to realize, many other kettlebell trainers and enthusiasts use other fitness tools as well. Some of them, like the macebell, are great for targeting specific areas of the body. Others, such as the plyometric jump box can even be used in conjunction with kettlebells!

6-Pack Challenge – Week 2: Replacing Fat with Muscle

Two weeks into this challenge with two more to go and I am feeling it! What I thought would be an easy addition to my warm-up routines before my kettlebell workouts has proved challenging. I'm talking about the increase of ab wheel exercises from 30 to 50. That extra twenty reps of stretching out take a greater toll than expected. Although, I certainly believe it's had a huge effect on my progress of building 6-pack abs.

6-Pack Challenge – Week 1: Adjusting to the Guidelines

It's been 1 week since starting this challenge and unfortunately, I don't have much to show for it. Realistically, it's not unusual to see little to no difference visually at this point. I have high expectations and it's been a tough week, but I have faith the results I'm looking for will come at the end. I suppose the important takeaway from this week is adjusting to the strict guidelines both physically and mentally.

Organize Your Kettlebell Collection With a Corner Kettlebell Rack

Since I've been working out with kettlebells over the last 20+ months I've expanded my collection of them from time to time. Although they are small and don't take up much space individually, having several of them has started to present a clutter problem. If it weren't for my wife, I'd still have my kettlebells strewn across the floor of my workout space. Thanks to her creative idea of gifting me a kettlebell rack for our wedding anniversary, things are a lot tidier!

Up and Down Kettlebell Flow for Strength and Cardio

Some of my favorite kettlebell flows aren't all that dazzling to watch but offer an effective workout nonetheless. The first flow I ever covered by Onnit's Eric Leija is one I perform weekly and still thoroughly enjoy. Why? It checks off all the boxes that I look for in a flow which are simplicity, pacing, and alternating sides for symmetry and recuperation.

A 15 Lb. Kettlebell is a Good Starting Weight for Out of Shape Men

As kettlebells have gained popularity in the U.S. over the past several years, many men and women are using them to reach their fitness goals. One of the first questions kettlebell newcomers have is what weight they should start with. Men are encouraged to start with a 35 lb. kettlebell if they are active. Other sites suggest that 25 lbs. is the right size for those who don't exercise. I still think that might be too heavy and, in fact, believe a 15 lb. kettlebell is the best choice for out-of-shape men.
