Know Your Enemy: What Age Wants to Do to You

Fact: Age wants to rob you of your youthful appearance.   It wants to make you fat and wrinkled.  It wants to take away your ability to perform.   It wants you to say “I’m too old for that.”  It wants to take a little injury and stretch it out so it takes a long to recover – if at all.  Age doesn’t want you to have fun. Let’s just admit it: age is a bitch.  I’ve never met anyone who likes it.

But in order to defeat the enemy, we must first acknowledge its existence and strategies.

Kettlebells are a cast iron “Ball” with a handle, like a cannon ball. The unique handle allows for an offset weight, which creates maximum load through a greater range of motion. This leads to greater stability and mobility as well as strength for the upper body. The ability to have greater range of motion also allows for the dynamic and ballistic type movements unique to kettlebells, as in the swing and snatch. This all translates into power, strength and cardiovascular endurance all in one exercise. The end result is a strong health back, resilient shoulders, powerful hips and outstanding grip strength.

These days, “old school” training is all the rage. Gym rats everywhere are getting back to basics — back to their training roots — by spending less time on machines and more time throwing around the dead weight of barbells and dumbbells. If there hap- pens to be rust on the bar or if the dumbbell plates are rattling a bit, all the better. Just makes it that much more old school.

But if you’re looking to go more bare-bones with your training, there’s another implement you should be throwing around: the kettlebell, a Russian tool that’s been around for hundreds of years. (Talk about old school.) Outside of helping you add big- time strength and slabs of muscle to your physique, like barbells and dumbbells do, kettlebells can add a dynamic element to your training to help you bust through plateaus and keep the gains coming.

Bell Benefits

Where the kettlebell differs from the equip- ment you’re probably accustomed to using at the gym is in its unbalanced distribution of weight — there’s a handle on one end and a heavy “ball” on the other that, when used on explosive exercises like cleans, snatches and swings, pulls the weight away from you with excessive force, making your muscles work that much harder to stabilize yourself and maintain balance.

“Kettlebells work a wide variety of physical attributes,” says Steve Cotter, president and founder of the International Kettlebell and Fitness Federation. “For example, if someone was looking to add bulk or strength, a barbell would be a very good tool for that. For cardiovascular fitness, you’d do aerobic activity. For flexibility, you’d do some form of stretching or yoga. With kettlebells, you’re combining all three of these qualities — strength, endurance and flexibility — into one tool, so it’s a very time-efficient way of training.”

The following training program, designed by Cotter, involves only four basic kettlebell moves that will train your body from traps to calves. And that’s one of the main benefits of training with bells — the hallmark kettle- bell exercises are full-body movements that will train your body differently than a typical bodybuilding routine that consists of many isolation exercises.

Outside of training the body “collectively” instead of isolating different muscle groups, Cotter cites a few other benefits of kettlebell training: its proficiency at working fast- twitch muscle fibers because of the ballistic nature of the exercises, which can stimulate hypertrophy; the extended range of motion on moves like swings, in which the weight is actually brought behind you at the bottom of each rep; and the ability to enhance grip strength because of the kettlebell’s unique handle and weight distribution, which forces the hands and forearms to work harder. “Kettlebell training also tends to burn more calories because it’s more aerobic compared to barbell and dumbbell training, so it’s great for fat burning,” Cotter says.

So when it comes to keeping your train- ing old school, what should you use: barbells and dumbbells or kettlebells? That’s easy: All of the above. Muscles need to be challenged in a variety of ways and with myriad pieces of equipment to continue to get bigger and stronger. The more you throw at your body, the less likely it will be to adapt to one style of training. Give Cotter’s kettlebell program a try to get accustomed to the new moves, then mix the kettlebell exercises in with your barbell and dumbbell work, if you like. And just like that, your training will be über old school — with loads of new muscle and strength to show for it.

Beginner’s KettleBell Routine

The following routine was designed by Steve Cotter for those new to kettlebell training. The objective of the program is to enhance muscular strength and endurance, though hypertrophy (muscle growth) will be achieved, as well, provided sufficient nutrients are taken in before and after workouts.

• The exercises included are basic but brutally effective, and form on these moves should be perfected before moving on to more advanced kettlebell exercises.

• Cotter recommends that relatively strong men and/or those weighing more than 220 pounds use a 24-kilogram/53-pound kettlebell; and men with moderate levels of strength and/or those weighing less than 180 pounds should start with a 16-kilogram/35- pound kettlebell.

• Perform the workout three days a week with one to two days of rest between workouts (i.e., Monday, Wednesday, Friday).

• Follow this routine for four to eight weeks, then either try a more advanced kettlebell program or return to your typical workouts. If you’re returning to traditional bodybuilding training (using barbells, dumbbells, machines, etc.), you can incorporate kettlebell exercises into those workouts,as well, for additional training benefits.
