Pumping with two kettlebells: 4 exercises for a strong press

Kettlebells are a great projectile for pumping the muscles of the body. They provide both weight and instability, so you have to strain as hard as you can to keep your body in position.

As a result, both straight and oblique are perfectly pumped. abdominal muscles, hip flexors, back extensors, and in some exercises, the muscles of the shoulder girdle.

How to do the workout

You need to do the following exercises:

1. Part of the Turkish rise with access to the knee - 6 times on each side.
2. Rearranging the kettlebell in the lying position - 8 times with each hand.
3. "Metronome" with two weights - 10 times in total.
4. Bringing the knee to the elbow with one kettlebell - 6 times on each side.

Try to change sides without pauses, but between exercises, take breaks of 60-90 seconds.

Women should try shells of 8-12 kg, men - 12-16 kg. If you feel that you can handle these weights without any problems, take weights heavier.
