Kettlebell swings are AWESOME for fat loss.
They burn as many calories per minute as all-out sprinting, and they’ll boost your metabolism for hours after your workout.
I wanted to give you a sample “kettlebell swings for fat loss” workout to try, just to show you HOW powerful this exercise can be, WHEN you program it properly into your training.
And the best part is, you can do this one in about 20 minutes, with just one kettlebell.
Let’s rock!
###
Kettlebell Swings for Fat Loss Workout
– Begin your workout with a 3-5 minute dynamic warm up.
– Do two :30 holds of HardStyle planks, resting about :15 sec. between sets.
– Swings – do 5 sets of 20. Rest about :30 between sets.
Mix up the type of swings you do. You can do two hand, one hand, hand to hand, or double swings. This is a great way to mix up the workout, hit slightly different muscle groups and give your body a slightly different stimulus throughout the session.
– Next, do a body weight circuit of Push Ups, Pull Ups or Inverted Rows, and Step Ups or Lunges – you’ll do 2-3 rounds of 10-15 reps of each exercise.
Modify the body weight exercises as needed to challenge yourself JUST enough. So … if you’re just starting out, you might do knee push ups and inverted rows. If you’re advanced, you might do feet elevated push ups and standard pull ups. You can really make this workout as hard or as easy as you like.
– Finish off with a 3-5 minute static stretch of tight muscle groups ONLY.
