subject: Top 10 Ways Kettlebells Turn Back The Hands Of Time [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 saggy. And possibly even flat. And yes, that is also the reason you have a belly or a tummy or back fat or what-have-you.
Sorry to be so negative right from the start, but your time is valuable and I value it - that's why I want to notify you to the problem right away.
So what were you meant 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 all the rage right now, but they've actually been around over 300 years and have been used by most everyone from circus strongmen to athletes to mothers.
You should use them too.
Here's why:
1.Kettlebells pry and open your hips which get tightened up from sitting for hours.
2.Kettlebells reinforce your lower back which gets aggravated from sitting all day and helps prevent lumbar spine injuries.
3.Kettlebells strengthen your abs helping you get rid of that stomach, that tummy, and those lovehandles.
4.Kettlebells strengthen 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 gut, that pooch, and that back flab.
7.Kettlebells help recover your posture by strengthening the muscles that run up and down the spine - your postural muscles.
8.Kettlebells supply you energy by helping you get rid of unwanted body fat, decreasing the amount of "extra baggage" you have to carry around.
9.Kettlebells reinforce your shoulders, which aid in improving your posture and other pursuits such as running, walking, etc
10.Kettlebells are just plain FUN! The basic exercise - the Swing - is just fun to do! It makes you feel good and makes exercise and fitness not so boring and dull.
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.
