What you will learn at the KettleFIT COURSE:

Here's a taster of some of what you'll learn in the course:

The Swing. The foundation of all Kettlebell training. Here is where it all begins for developing rapid hip flexors and for accelerating fat loss. It is not as easy as it looks. Learn how to get a cardio workout and a lower body workout in minimum time. Learn the best way to do swings at the workshop and how to avoid getting a sore lower back.

The Clean. Evolved from Olympic weight lifting-but is totally different. Learn how to stop banging your wrists even with a heavy kettlebell. Learn perfect form and how to correct your current form. Forget about doing military presses or squats . It all starts here. Why you should open your hand and wrap your hand around the kettlebell rather than letting the kettlebell flip over and bruise your forearms.

Squat. The easiest of all kettlebell moves. This will help you become more flexible, increase your core strength and reduce back pain. No spotters or squat racks are required.

The Turkish Getup. Forget about doing hundreds of crunches and doing sit-ups to get rock hard abs. Learn how to work your body a one unit and build a rock solid midsection that will help you with all your training. Learn the TGU' step by step and how you can make it more productive.

Military Presses. (Many years ago the Military Press was the benchmark for upper body strength. Now people are getting lazy and like to lie down when doing presses ;-) learn why the military press is a full body demonstration of tension and why latimus dorsi activation is critical for an important press or pull movements. Learn why you should press two kettlebells like a barbell and lower two kettlebells like you are doing a pull-up for maximum strength. You will be shocked at what a difference this makes.

The Windmill. This is a phenomenal exercise for building shoulder stability, core strength, and solid obliques. It is also a fantastic excericise for building flexibility in the shoulders and hamstrings. When done correctly, this exercise is safe and effective. Done incorrectly, it is a sure-fire way to get injured badly! Learn how to do it correctly before it is too late.

Combos and drills. Learn how to incorporate some phenomenal workouts that will send your heart racing and your eyes popping and veins bulging with just these basic moves.

You will also learn other things like...... how to breathe for optimal alignment, how to improve your grip strength by at least 25%, correct your posture, make massive strength gains, joint mobility drills and bodyweight drills...and more!
