What can stop a train going 60 miles/hour?
Not much ... not even a brick wall
What can stop a train that isn't moving?
A single pebble ...
In order to get the train going, something has to happen.
You have to give fuel, start the engines, unlock the brakes ...
Something else ...
The Train has to be driven.
You have to be Driven too. Do you have the unstoppable drive of a train at full speed?
Or is something so insignificant and minute stopping you in your tracks?
You think about two basic things in a workout. Strength & Speed.
But you think about them on separate terms. "I want to build my strength. I want to increase my speed."
And you think about the machines and weights used to build muscle. Then you think about the cardio machines for burning calories, getting aerobic training, and increasing your speed.
It is terrible to use momentum with the machines. You could injure yourself or damage the machine.
Momentum is key to maximizing your results. Momentum requires stabilization. That recruites more muscle to stabilize during the exercise. What is stabilization really for? It is simple, for balance, control, and injury prevention.
Think back to the first time swinging a kettlebell. Remember how you felt off balance, like the kettlebell was going to fling your forward. Or how your whole body felt the workout. Maybe you had bad form and hurt your back, or just were really stiff the next day.
Kettlebells are amazing for using momentum to strengthen the entire body.
To keep the momentum going, you need to generate forces. This is your strength and power at work. The whole body becomes engaged and you burn more calories and boost your metabolism that way.
If you never experienced training with kettlebells before and what to start getting results like never before, then give me a call to find out more.
