That's true, there's also more than one way to mess up movement, kettlebells being one of them. Good for Turkish get ups, that's one thing I forgot.
Dealt With you just slag something off cause you dont like it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9JlVjCQmno This kettlebell champion picks up 200lbs kettlebell with one arm! and does 9reps with it! broke the world record, all he does is kettle bell training that means dealt with he should be really weak right, kettlebells is mixing cardio with weight. HANG ON HE JUST PICKED UP A FULLY GROWN MAN WITH 1 ARM and pressed him 9 times. Russians arent stupid they love kettlebells for a reason and most of them are tough *******s.
heres another one Valery Federnoko famous world champion and embassador for kettle bells. picking up a 150lb dumbbell and messing around with a 600lbs tyre https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TS6IP5EjN9E yeah kettle bells really make you Weak dealt with, fact is it takes more discipline and strength to rep 32kg for 10-20 minutes than it does to do 3-5 reps and you dont like that, thats what it comes down to.
you love 3-5 reps max strength training, you think its the ONLY way to gain strength. numerous people can testify there massive strength gains from working with kettlebells, this is a fact.
It IS the only way to gain strength, hence why it's the 'go-to' range for strength training. Everything else is hypertrophy, endurance, metabolic etc. The strongest men in the world work with barbells and set records with barbells with 1 Rep.
Reps over that may increase CSA, motor learning etc. which will indirectly increase strength but that's not strength training. Even a pure strength athlete has phases of training where they lift lower loads for more volume, it's foundational but that's not where they're building their real strength. You can't just stay in a hypertrophy or a strength phase permanently, that'd be a great way to stifle your progress. As I said you could use kettlebells at a stage of training where you're not concerned about movement and strength, for some metabolic conditioning. It's not strength training though you numbskull, and my main point is that it's bad for athletic movement. It's not dissimilar to the deadlift movement, so if you're goal is to get some foundational work in for deadlifts then it might not be so bad.
alright, lets set all the bull**** aside. Who hear has actually done kettlebell work and benefited from it in regards to boxing? here's one example. who else? Or if you have any negative reviews on it
Sorry, but if what you quoted was true then the guy wouldn't be here looking for reassurance on using kettle bells. If he truly felt stronger and felt like he hits harder, why would he need to ask if KB's are any good for a fighter?
Asking if something is good is a pointless question, you need to be more specific. Good for what? Okay I did kettlebell training and my hip thrust improved, I could **** my girlfriend for longer. Did nothing for my ability to throw a punch. What reps and rest did I use, what load, what movement and what was my training status? Then don't forget to take in individual responses to the same thing. We like to simplify without thinking. What do you want to achieve? Work from there.
