Kettlebell Hypertrophy™: How To Build a Big Chest With Kettlebells Only | Ft. Rob Riches

Спорт

When you hear kettlebells, you often think of swings, functional training, metabolic conditioning workouts, and CrossFit.
What you never really hear about is kettlebells being used for bodybuilding, and building lean, aesthetic muscle with hypertrophy training... until now.
Rob Riches here from Blue Star Nutraceuticals and today we’re going to be starting a new 5-part training series where you’ll be using only kettlebells and training a specific muscle group each day, to form a complete 5-day, bodybuilding style, kettlebell hypertrophy program.
You will then be able to follow this program for up to 12 weeks for a complete physique enhancing body transformation.
Now today, we’ll be starting off this series focusing on chest!
So, ready to see how kettlebells can be used to build the body you’ve always dreamed of?
This is Kettlebell Hypertrophy™: How To Build a Big Chest With Kettlebells Only!
Let’s get to it!
For this workout, you’ll perform 6 exercises in linear fashion.
Meaning you will perform all sets for exercise #1 before moving on to exercise #2, and continue in this fashion until all 6 exercises are complete.
You will perform 3 sets of 10-12 reps for each exercise, using 75% of your 1 rep max.
Start with a weight you can comfortably manage for 10 reps, then over the weeks, increase the reps as you progress, once you reach 12 reps for all 3 sets of the exercise, it’s time to step up the weight.
Repeat this process throughout the 12-week program to effectively achieve progressive overload and maximize your strength and muscle building results.
You are allowed up to 90 seconds rest between sets to catch your breath and quickly rehydrate with AminoFast™ before continuing on to the next set.
Your goal is to complete the entire workout in under 1 hour. If it’s taking you longer than that, you need to pick up the pace.
Exercise #1: Kettlebell Chest Press
Exercise #2: Kettlebell Fly
Exercise #3: Glute Bridge Kettlebell Press
Exercise #4: Kettlebell Push-Up
Exercise #5: Kettlebell 1-Arm Chest Press
Exercise #6: Kettlebell 1-Arm Chest Fly
And that is a wrap!
Congratulations on making it through the first workout of this 5-part Kettlebell Hypertrophy training series.
Be sure to tune in next week for part 2 of the program where we’ll be showing you how to use kettlebells for building a wider, stronger V-tapered back!

    Week 11 seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Did the workout in 34:34 today. The journey has been great. During this time I am thinking ahead for the next 12 weeks there will be more additions to this program using tabata and boxing workouts. All moving forward.

    Great job. If you feel like you can still get 5 more reps, you should increase the weight until you feel you could only get 1-2 before reaching failure. You can definitely add on another set as well to help get a bit more volume in.

A monkey push up and a side push up each side 10 reps each. I think this experiment will some who have already done this workout and repeating it again. What it does is to spice up regimen.

    That depends entirely on your individual strength levels. The weight will be different for every person. Choose a weight that is challenging, yet allows you to complete all the prescribed reps for the exercise. You may have to try a few different weights until you get familiar with your strength levels.

    If the kettlebell is bashing into your forearms on movements such as cleans or snatches you’re doing it wrong. Also when holding a kettlebell racked (held at your chest) after a clean, when doing squats, lunges, loaded carries with a bell or 2 racked… or doing presses (side, military, get-ups…) hold the kettlebell so that the handle is at about a 45ish degree angle - not straight across (like a dumbbell would be). Holding the kettlebell handle at about a 45ish degree angle leads to the ball resting on a different and less tender part of your forearm. Getting some instruction on form from a qualified kettlebell instructor is recommended. A general personal trainer who does some kettlebell work is likely not who you want for the instruction - a kettlebell person is who you want. A kettlebell is a different tool than a dumbbell and trying to treat it like a dumbbell isn’t going to work. When programming presses into your workout plan DB vs KB will be the same but the form is different.
