Dynamic Stretching with Kettlebells

Dynamic stretching is a form of stretching that is perfect to add to your kettlebell workouts. It consists of gentle, rhythmic movements that are performed in continuous succession. It will warm up your muscles and prepare them for exercise, was well as helping you move more freely and with greater range of motion. Here’s a sample dynamic warm up to try before your next kettlebell workout:

*Pro tip – you can also do this routine on your “off” / non-kettlebell days for some extra stretching, exercise, and calorie burn!

#

Kettlebell Dynamic Stretching Routine

1 – KB Goblet squat – 5
2 – Inchworm w/ push up – 5
3 – KB halo – 5 each way
4 – Reverse lunge w/ twist over front leg – 5 per side

#

The summer is fast approaching!

So that you can burn some extra calories and stay on track with your fitness, we are offering a special boot camp class on Saturdays at 9am.

This is perfect as an add-on for current clients who are already doing workouts at the studio each week, and want to get some extra bonus work on the weekends.

It’s also open to new or returning clients who just want to join us for a fun, heart-pumping, calorie-burning workout on Saturdays at 9 am.

If you are interested, reply with the words “Saturday Boot Camp”, and we will send you all the details on how to join.

Eat-Stop-Eat IF Protocol

Intermittent fasting is where you cycle between periods of eating and fasting.

Dozens of recent studies show it can have powerful benefits!

There are a lot of different ways to do it – 16/8, 5:2, etc… but my personal favorite is the “Eat-Stop-Eat” protocol. Here is an overview:

(This is taken directly from Eat Stop Eat – and I recommend you purchase the book if you really want to learn all about it, and how it works):

— Fast 1-2x per week for 20-24 hours.
— Consume as little as possible during your fast. Calorie – free beverages such as tea, black coffe, water are encouraged during the fast.
— EAT on the days you’re not fasting – do NOT “diet” on your eating days!
— A ROUGH guide is to eat ~ 2000 calories (women) and ~ 2500 calories (men) on all other, non-fasting days of the week
— Shoot for approx 100 grams of protein per day
— Weight train 2-5x per week to maintain muscle while you lose fat

Again – this is an OVERVIEW of the approach, and leaves out a lot of details. 

If it sounds interesting to you, I recommend that you pick up a copy of the Eat Stop Eat book, and have a read / listen:

Kettlebell Bootcamp Workout

Kettlebell boot camp workouts are particularly beneficial because they simultaneously work the muscles and the cardiovascular system, making them a great choice if you’re looking to lose weight or improve your overall fitness level. 

In just 30 minutes, you can achieve results that would take hours at a typical gym:

Kettlebell Bootcamp Workout

1 – Perform as many reps as you can of each exercise in 40 seconds. Rest 20 seconds between exercises. Rest 45-60 seconds between rounds. Do 3-4 rounds total:

B – regular push ups (beginner) / spider push ups (advanced)
C – KB tactical lunge (alternate legs each rep)
D – single arm KB rows (beginner) / single arm KB rows from “Warrior III” position (advanced)
