Cleans, Squats, Presses and the various combinations

So this is not a workout I did perform today. Instead this is an opportunity for me to show you how versitale the Kettlebell is whether you have 1 bell or 2 of the same size and if you only had three exercise; cleans, squats, and presses.

One Kettlebell
1. Clean
2. Squat
3. Press
4. Clean and Squat
5. Clean and Press
6. Squat and Press
7. Clean, Squat and Press
8. Clean and Jerk
9. Clean and Push-Press
10. Push-Press
11. Jerk

Two Kettlebells of the same size
1. Clean
2. Squat
3. Press
4. Clean and Squat
5. Clean and Press
6. Squat and Press
7. Clean, Squat and Press
8. Clean and Jerk
9. Clean and Push-Press
10. Push-Press
11. Jerk
12. See-Saw Press
13. Clean and See-Saw Press
14. Squat and See-Saw Press

Ok, so if you add that up you get 25 potential exercises with 2 bells of the same size using three moves and their variations.
What more is there to say :-). Add the swings and there variations and you are set!

Enjoy the fun of playing and training with Kettlebells

Now having a few workout sessions under my belt with Kettlebells, I'm really impressed at the versatility that Kettlebells offer. It's amazing all the different workouts one can perform with these bells!
