Wake up girls!
I finally found the best soloution for exercise and shifting your fat!
Training with kettlebells! I don't know many girls who have been training with kettlebells who go back to traditional means of slogging it out on the treadmill to lose thier love handles, because doing kettlebells give you quicker results and challenges your whole body. Kettlebells are soon becoming hot property in the UK fitness industry these days as you can create exciting workouts with them and they challenge your whole body in a short space of time. But when only done correctly! That is, if you have had good instruction from a qualified kettlebell instructor then you are on your way to transforming your body. Everyone these days is looking for a fast solution to get their training done in the week. But Kettlebells will help you fit your workout around your busy life -provided you know what you are doing. Unlike dumbbells, kettlebells displace weight, so physics forces body awareness and requires you to work against resistance through a longer range of motion. This increases the intensity of your workout and improves flexibility and calorie expenditure. Because the kettlebell hangs behind your hand and rests on your forearm it makes the weight easier to balance. And the handle makes it easier to hold on to for ballistic movements. This more intense workout will result in achieving your fat loss in less time. .

So what exercises should women do?
Well there a bunch of exercises that women can do, well- 1001 in fact. But the emphasis should be on efficiency and being able to master the basic moves like Bent Leg Deadlifts, Swings, Cleans, Squats, Push Press and Windmills. As these exercises will give most women a good foundation and will burn off most muscle groups.
But what I suggest is that you do kettlebells little and often and and maybe do 15-20 minutes work and stick to the basics and train up to 4 x a week. Then you will not only learn the exercises but you will see a difference!
Here is an example workout:
Do as a circuit without any rest.
- Bent Leg Deadlifts x 15
- 2 Arm Swings x 10
- Cleans x 5
- Push Press x 5
- Sling Shots x 10
- Side Bends x 10
Then rest for 1 minute and repeat 3-4 times.
