The other day I was moving stuff around in my office closet looking for something and had to laugh.
I’ve got books, my old jeans (I kept a pair of my jeans when I wore size 46) some journals that I swear I’ll “need one day”, along with a box full of VHS tapes…
But tucked in the
corner? The one thing that’s kept me 115 pounds lighter for over a decade.
No, not a treadmill. Not some fancy home gym contraption.
A single kettlebell.
Here’s the deal though - having the tool is one
thing.
Knowing how to use it? That’s where the magic happens.
That’s why I lean on my 3R approach:
- Resistance (challenge your muscles without wrecking your
joints)
- Reps (dialed in just right)
- Rotation (Never stuck in the same old rut)
Compare that to traditional HIIT... pounding your knees on the treadmill, doing the same intervals over and
over.
No thanks.
With 3R and a kettlebell, you get the same fat-burning results in a fraction of the time… while actually having fun.
Don’t just take my word for it. The American Council on
Exercise found kettlebell training can torch 20 calories a minute.
That’s like running a six-minute mile... without leaving your living room.
Case in point: after polishing off ham sliders, chips, Chex mix, AND way too many chocolate truffles (thanks to my wife’s tutoring student)… I woke up the
next morning half a pound lighter.
Because when you crank up your metabolism with the right moves, your body does the heavy lifting for you.
Go here
to grab the fun.
You’ll bust plateaus, give yourself more wiggle room in your diet, and build stamina without beating yourself up in the process.
Later tater,
