Download or read book Kettlebell Grips and Racking written by Taco Fleur and published by Kettlebell Training. This book was released on 2017-08 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most fundamental things anyone should learn before even thinking about picking up a kettlebell is grip, the manner of holding a kettlebell, something that may seem insignificant is actually so important for efficiency; preventing injury; preventing blisters; prevent exhausting grip, forearms, biceps, shoulders etc. Knowing kettlebell grips is also important for transitions, it allows you to seamlessly flow from one kettlebell exercise into the next. This book will explain and illustrate to kettlebell enthusiasts and crossfitters how to grip a kettlebell for many different exercises. Why use different grips? If you're asking this question, then you're asking the right question, because knowing a lot of grips is cool, but knowing why you would change grip or use one over the other is even cooler and the part you should really understand. During kettlebell training you employ different grips to make certain exercises more efficient, but you also change grips to increase difficulty and challenge other muscle groups. Sometimes when your training gets stale you might even employ a different grip to please the mind. While knowing kettlebell grips and when to employ them is important and one of the kettlebell fundamentals, the second most important thing you should start looking into is racking a kettlebell. It might seem insignificant, but a lot hinges on how you rack your kettlebell, in fact, some people give up on kettlebell training because they can't get comfortable in the racking position or can't find the proper position for the bell to rest. This book is part of the series brought out by Cavemantraining and builds up to more advanced techniques over time, this is the ultimate foundation for proper kettlebell training. There are over 25+ different kettlebell grips in this book, over 50 illustrations and more than 40 pages.

Book excerpt: This book contains the most basic and fundamental information for kettlebell training, grip! Many years ago I decided to dedicate a book on grips, after seeing many people fumble with kettlebell grips during transitions and exercises. Knowing how to grip/hold your kettlebell is extremely important for efficiency and safety. Why should you learn about grips? It is important to know and understand kettlebell grips for efficiency and being able to work the muscles intended for the exercise in question. Employing an incorrect grip can mean pain; being uncomfortable; cause for injury; exhausting grip, forearm, biceps or shoulder muscles and losing focus on the muscles targeted with a specific exercise. Why use different grips? If you're asking this question, then you're asking the right question because knowing a lot of grips is cool, but knowing why you would change grip or use one over the other is even cooler and the part you should really understand. During kettlebell training, you employ different grips to make certain exercises more efficient, but you also change grips to increase difficulty and challenge other muscle groups. Sometimes when your training gets stale you might even employ a different grip to please the mind. While knowing kettlebell grips and when to employ them is important and one of the kettlebell fundamentals, the second most important thing you should start looking into is racking a kettlebell. It might seem insignificant, but a lot hinges on how you rack your kettlebell, in fact, some people give up on kettlebell training because they can't get comfortable in the racking position or can't find the proper position for the bell to rest. This book contains over 25 kettlebell training grips and comes paired with a photo for each and everyone. This is it, this is what you'll be building the rest of your kettlebell journey upon, without this information you'll be fumbling around with the kettlebell and even after years of training still look like you just started.

The information in this book will allow you to pick kettlebell exercises and create your own kettlebell workout and/or verify that you’re doing the exercises you’re already doing, correctly. This volume covers kettlebells presses, push-ups, rows, and snatches. Each subject has just enough information to keep it basic and understandable. Kettlebell Press The press and push movement are very similar when you look at the arms, they’re always extending, whether overhead or above the chest (laying down), however, there is a clear difference between the two. With the press, you exert physical force on the kettlebell to move it away from you rather than to move yourself away from it (push). Kettlebell Push-up Similar to the press, you exert physical force on the kettlebell, but in this case, it’s in order to move yourself away from it. A push-up done on the floor would be pushing yourself away from the floor. If you take the same push-up position and turn it around—laying flat—and perform the same movement it becomes as press as you’re moving the object away from yourself. Kettlebell Row When looking at the movement in boat rowing it’s always a pull and push off the oar. In the context of kettlebell training, a row is always a pull as gravity replaces the push. A row has to be performed in such a way that you’re acting directly against gravity. The focus of the kettlebell row are the posterior muscles of the upper back. Kettlebell Snatch A snatch is a movement in which the kettlebell rapidly raised from a lower position—always below the hips—to above the head in one continuous smooth explosive movement. An example of a few common start positions are dead, hanging, and swinging.

Download or read book Master The Lunge written by Taco Fleur and published by Cavemantraining. This book was released on with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even if you take just the one most important tip away from this book, it will be worth 10 x more than its weight in gold. The answer to why and when to choose the reverse lunge over the forward lunge. Understand how to create hundreds of lunge variations yourself. Learn how to fix and pick up on common issues with the lunge. “The lunge is functional as it is a transitory moment in walking where a squat with feet parallel is stationary. This adds a requirement for balance under load with motion, a situation where injuries and falls often occur. The lunge improves our human movement patterns by making them stronger in a practical sense.” Dave Murray The lunge is an important exercise everyone should include in their training for strength, stability, and even added flexibility. This book covers the basic lunge and its variations, muscles used, step by step break down, priceless tips that will help you perform better, know why to chose one over the other, and much more. Links to several videos of lunges with kettlebells are also included. “Following my knee replacement, the lunge is the hardest but most important movement to master as it utilizes all of the stabilizing muscles and tendons. The lunge also means that I will have a powerful base for nearly all judo moves and stances.
