Kettlebell Exercises

Going by the popularity wave, one is left wondering if the kettlebell is some kind of magical equipment which one needs to have for fat burning workouts.

Kettlebells can be used like other weights, to gain muscle mass, strength and fat loss.

The kettlebell is not a new invention; in fact it has been around for many years. But it only gained popularity recently in the United States after a former Russian special forces coach, Pavel Tsatsouline, brought it to the continent. Since then, many leading trainers, athletes and celebrities have embraced kettlebell exercises to increase their strength and flexibility.

A kettlebell is a weight, often made of cast iron, and looks like a cannonball, which has a suitcase type handle on top, for gripping. ‘Girya’ is the Russian word for the kettlebell, named so because of its shape. The kettlebell has long been and is still being used in Russian military institutes. These days’ kettlebells generally come with rubber grips, added for convenience.

An efficient workout with kettlebells can accomplish amazing results which even the most sophisticated gym equipment can not match.  Most kettlebell exercises work on many body parts at a time, thus providing a total work out for the whole body.

If one wants to gain total body conditioning, then one should choose kettlebell exercises like swings, cleans, jerks, presses, windmills and turkish get ups which work on the entire body. 

Exercising with kettlebells burns the fat from your body and also works the whole nervous system. A highly intensive workout with kettlebells can leave your body totally exhausted in a few minutes. Since the body is not supported by any bench or machine, like in a gym. A kettlebell workout burns more calories and reduces fat quicker.

While kettlebell swings are good for muscle control and put emphasis on the posterior muscles; kettlebell cleans and jerks are lifting exercises which work on hamstrings, hips, arms, shoulders, and the chest. However, a kettlebell snatch is the trickiest of all kettlebell exercises as it combines many movements which involves muscles of the back, shoulder, forearm and abdomen, which works the whlle kinetic chain so it is a good workout for the whole body.

How crowded is the weekday morning amtrak train from San Diego to LA?

I am planning to take the 8:44 am train from Solana Beach to LA. Solana Beach is about 20 miles from downtown San Diego. I will carry 2 medium suitcases (about 20 lb each) and a backpack.
Will I have time to board and then ride comfortably?

You'll have no problem. As the train gets closer to LA, it starts to fill up, but you'll have a seat. If you're going to LAX, they have a great shuttle from Union Station for just a few bucks
