and mobility all in one workout.
"Kettlebell workouts can
be tailored to every individual’s fitness level,
strength and ability. All populations,
from beginners to
advanced Kettlebell athletes can
participate fully and make equivalent gains.

Kettlebell training is one of the most efficient
methods of improving overall fitness and body
composition by developing strength, power,
cardiovascular capacity, muscular endurance, core
stability, balance, coordination and mobility all
in one workout. All movements are total body
oriented recruiting far more muscle activation
than traditional body building exercises, and
because of the kettlebell's unique design,
transitioning from one exercise to another is
seamless, providing a high intensity workout that
will challenge every energy system of the body,
burning fat and building muscle from head to toe
all at the same time

KettleBell Sport:
Girevoy Sport refers to
competitive kettlebell lifting. The two major
contested events are the Long-cycle Clean and
Jerk, and the Biathlon which consists of two
events: the Jerk and the Snatch. For each event,
competitors have 10 minutes to complete as many
repetitions as possible. Competitors may pause to
rest, but are not allowed to put the bells down.
If they do, the set is terminated and only reps to
that point are counted. Men compete with 24kg or
32kg kettlebells, using two kettlebells for the
jerk, and one for the snatch. Women use only a
single kettlebell for both events, usually
weighing 16kg or 20kg.
