The Advantages of Kettlebells
The Advantages of Kettlebells
I'm sure most of you would have heard of a kettlebell by now? If not here is a brief description on what a kettlebell is and the benefits.
A kettlebell is a traditional Russian training tool that looks like a cannon ball with a handle on. This shape allows unique positioning of the weight directly above your centre mass (unlike a Dumbell which must be held in front of the body).

Mobile Truck Training Almost ready to Roll
Hi All
Well It's been a long time coming, With delays and just trying to get things sorted.
I Have finally started testing the Rig..

Bootcamps properly.
The only kinds of 'Bootcamps' That anyone needs to do, Is ones that are actually taken by Military or Ex-Military personal.

- Better grip strength and forearm development.
- Can help with overall muscular recruitment.
- Useful at helping get through plateaus.
I tend to drop one or two fat grip exercises in my back and arms routines and occasionally drop a chest exercise or deadlift into other sessions. My favourite exercises to use them with a...
