The Best Kettlebell Exercises for Rapid Fat Loss and Lean Muscle Gain

Copyright (c) 2008 Sandy Sommer

As a former College football player and a current real world fat loss expert who has helped lots of people lose a lot of pounds of fat, I know a thing or two about exercise selection. Everyone always asks me what the best kettlebell exercises are to lose fat AND gain muscle fast.

I'll keep this as simple as possible for you. The best exercises for fat loss are also the best exercises for muscle gain and visa versa. These exercises all have one thing in common: they provide a UNIQUE challenge to your body AND involve as many muscles in your body as possible.

Both the scientific research and the real world case studies have shown that total body workouts are superior for maximal fat loss and muscle gain. But let's take this one step further...

Let's dramatically accelerate results by preferentially selecting TOTAL BODY EXERCISES within each TOTAL BODY WORKOUT! For example, goblet squats are well known for being one of the best muscle-builders with a serious a fat-shredding effect. However, the squat goes from great to UNSTOPPABLE for changing your body for the better when you make it a combination movement by adding a row or press to each squat rep. It's obvious that you can reap more benefits this way since you have now involved your upper body into the king of lower body exercises.

It's as simple as the Dream Body Equation below:

Performing Total Body Exercises Within Each Total Body Workout

More Muscles Involved =

More Calories Burnt + Greater Muscle-Building Stimulus =

Greater Fat Lost + Greater Muscle Gain

I must be honest in that I have a true love-hate relationship with the following movements I am about to share with you. Love because of the unparalleled fat-melting, muscle-building results they provide to help you look your best. Hate because they break me every single workout by leaving me in tears while in a pool of my own sweat. In other words, these are not for the weak of mind, body, or soul!
