Rock hard Abs using Kettlebells

By Chris Rivers


Kettle bell training is unique in the sense that you are continuously moving with a weight at a good speed so you get a cardiovascular workout as well as a strength and muscle building session. But unlike conventional training methods; doing this type of exercise constantly engages the core which ultimately give you rock hard abs with continual use.

Also there are numerous abdominal exercises that you can do with a kettle bell and they can be combined along with other routines you are already active with or as a stand alone workout. Here are some of the fundamental abdominal exercises that you can do with your KB.

Russian twists: By far the most well known of all the actual abdominal moves, the RT's undoubtedly are a great exercise and they are also easy to begin with. Sat on a floor or gym step, knees bent slightly and tilting back holding the bell at the horns one twists to one side and puts the bell down but not letting go of the horns; then lifting it over your legs again the movement is repeated back and forth. It's a fantastic exercise working your arms and also shoulders. You must remember to engage the abs enough to feel them taut before beginning.

Overhead sit-ups: Laying completely flat arms stretched out above your head and holding the bell by the horns, raise the KB up towards the ceiling; then once its directly over your head lift your head and upper back of the floor and hold for a few seconds then slowly back to the start position; repeat.

1/2 get ups: Obviously it's the very first half from the TGU. Lying on your floor with the bell one side, roll on your side and take the KB within your hands and press upward with one arm, then all in a singular movement move your back up of the floor so you are sat straight up making sure you keep the KB straight above your head arm locked constantly, then slowly resume to start position and also swap sides and repeat the process.

These are just a few abdominal exercises you could include in your kettle bell session, you can do them for just a set amount off reps or time period. Also you can certainly just do the aforementioned for 15 minutes continuous mins as a full ab exercise.
