subject: The 10 Reasons Kettlebells Restore Your Youth [print this page] Let me get to the point: You weren't meant to sit on your rear end all day long. That's why it's flat. And possibly even saggy. And yup, that is also the reason you have a gut or a tummy or back fat or whatever.
Sorry to be so negative right from the start, but your time is valuable and I respect it - that's why I want to notify you to the problem right away.
So what were you designed to do?
Move!
One of the most effective forms of movement to combat sitting is kettlebell training. You may have heard of kettlebells, they seem to be the in thing right now, but they have actually been around over 300 years and have been used by everyone from circus strongmen to athletes to mothers.
You should use kettlebells too.
Here are 10 reasons why:
1. Kettlebells stretch out and open your hips which get locked down from sitting all day.
2. Kettlebells strengthen your lower back which gets weakened from sitting all day and helps prevent lower back injuries.
3. Kettlebells reinforce your abs helping you get rid of that stomach, that tummy, and that back flab.
4. Kettlebells reinforce your legs, enabling walking, standing, squatting, lunging, running, and climbing stairs so much easier.
5. Kettlebells reinforce your heart and lungs, helping you prevent heart disease.
6. Kettlebells help you burn off unwanted body fat and flab, helping you once again get rid of that stomach, that pooch, and those lovehandles.
7. Kettlebells help restore your posture by strengthening the muscles that run up and down the spine - your postural muscles.
8. Kettlebells give you energy by helping you shed unwanted body fat, decreasing the amount of "extra baggage" you have to drag around.
9.Kettlebells reinforce your shoulders, which aid in improving your posture and other pursuits such as running, walking, etc.
10.Kettlebells are just outright FUN! The basic exercise - the Swing - is just fun to do! It makes you feel good and makes exercise and fitness not so tedious and mundane.
Now, go pick up a kettlebell and start turning back the hands of time. You'll feel young and suppler and move much better in 30 days or less.
